Jupiter, Venus and Mercury in alignment after sunset

Jupiter, Venus and Mercury put on a spectacular show as they line up in the evening sky this evening in Singapore after sunset alongside with Pollux and Castor twins in the , constellation of Gemini. The two planets will reach their closest point around June 8 and 9, 2026, when they appear near enough together to look almost like a double star, according to NASA.

And around June 16 and 17, 2026, the crescent Moon and the Gemini stars Pollux and Castor move into the same part of the sky, giving skywatchers one of June’s best evening views with the 3 Planets visible to the naked eye.
