Explanation: Simultaneous images from four cameras were combined to construct this atmospheric predawn skyscape. The cooperative astro-panorama captures all the planets of the Solar System, just before sunrise on June 24. That foggy morning found innermost planet Mercury close to the horizon but just visible against the twilight, below and left of brilliant Venus. Along with the waning crescent Moon, the other bright naked-eye planets, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn lie near the ecliptic, arcing up and to the right across the wide field of view. Binoculars would have been required to spot the much fainter planets Uranus and Neptune, though they also were along the ecliptic in the sky. In the foreground are excavations at an ancient Roman villa near Marina di San Nicola, Italy, planet Earth.

Saw that a couple of mornings ago around 5 except Mercury was a bit low to the sunrise coming up. The other 4 and the moon was a spectacular sight.
Don’t look at Uranus. /snicker

July 12. That is when Webb releases its first pictures.
We don’t get the labels in the sky where I live.
In my area it is too bright to see the labels under the planets....
Sound it out and you can hear 'Jove' as in Iupiter (smile)!
You know, they kind of look like flaming globes.
Giove,
Yes!
I’m There.
Outstanding. Thanks
I was unable to roust myself out of bed to go and actually look
