For the next few days from the writing of this post, and on two more occasions next year, it will be possible to view ALL the planets, plus the Moon and Pluto all in the sky at the one time!
Congratulations Alex,

Don't be surprised if your friends soon name a space mission, or spacecraft after you and in 200 or 300 years time you will be remembered along with the greats like Galileo, Cassini, Huygens, Hubble etc !

Cheers
