Mercury

Are you ready for a celestial treat? The planet Mercury will be visible in Australia tonight! This planet, which is the closest to the sun, is usually visible from the southern hemisphere in September. If you want to catch a glimpse of this rare event, here's the best way to do it:

Find a Dark Spot

Mercury will be visible low in the western sky just after sunset. To get the best view, find a dark spot away from city lights. The darker the sky, the easier it will be to see Mercury.

Use Binoculars

While Mercury will be visible to the naked eye, it will be easier to spot with binoculars. Look for a small, bright dot just above the horizon.

Don't miss this chance to see Mercury up close! Head outside tonight and enjoy the show.
