Sky watchers will get a double treat during the next two weeks, with a big, bright June “supermoon” on the way and a parade of planets that will be visible to the naked eye in the early morning hours. Experts say the planetary parade is already visible each morning around dawn, with five planets — Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn — lined up close together in the sky, but the planets will become easier to see on June 24. The June 2022 "strawberry moon," the first supermoon of the year, will be glowing in the night sky on Tuesday, June 14.
