It’s a Great Time to Look at the Sky!

This is a great time to look at the night sky. From now until the end of January, you can see all the planets. Do you know their names in English? The planet nearest the sun is Mercury. The second and brightest planet is Venus. We live on the third planet, Earth. Mars is the red planet. Jupiter is the largest planet. Saturn is also large and has rings going around it. The seventh planet is Uranus, and the eighth planet is Neptune. For the next few nights, you can find most of the planets in the south and southwest sky after sunset. You can see Venus, Mars, and Jupiter with the naked eye, but you will probably need binoculars or a telescope to see the other planets. (128 words)
