How to see the planet parade near Cape Canaveral, Florida?​

The best time to see most of these planets will be between 5 a.m. - 6 a.m. A location with a clear view of the eastern horizon and without the interference of bright city lights is ideal.

The planets that are visible will appear in the sky as non-twinkling "stars". Here's what to look for during the morning show:

^^^ Has a short video...!!!

After Monday, June 3, the show is not necessarily over. While not in the same positions, or in an "alignment", the planets will rise at similar times all throughout June.

TidBit more infro :

• Saturn: Visible, yet not as bright as the other planets. Saturn rises in the east just before 2:30 a.m., yet it can be seen until sunrise. As the night goes on, it will rise into the sky, following the ecliptic − the same path as the Sun. Just before 6 a.m., it will be high in the southeast.
• Mars: A bit less bright than Saturn. With its red hue, Mars is easy to spot. On the morning of Monday, June 3, it will be above the eastern horizon. Rising just after 4 a.m., it will lie to the right of the waning crescent Moon.
• Mercury: Very faint and low on the eastern horizon as it rises just before 6 a.m.. It appears in close proximity to Jupiter.
• Jupiter: Just below and to the left of Mercury is the bright planet Jupiter. With its massive size − 9x wider than Earth, according to NASA − Jupiter is one of the brightest planets in the night sky. However, as it rises in the east just before 6 a.m., it may be tricky to spot as sunlight starts to light the sky
