This artist’s impression, given by the ESO (European Southern Observatory) on April 25, 2007, shows a picture of Glycy 581, the planet around the red dwarf, which astronomers believe is the largest planet ever found outside our solar system. Astronomers use Chile’s ESO 3.6-m telescope to find a planet floating on the surface. The planet orbits Glycy 581, a faint star 20.5 light-years away in the Libra constellation.
Earth Sky Saturn, Mars and Jupiter are reported to be approaching in the evening and at night. The remaining two, Venus and Mars, will appear in the early morning.
They are found near the star Pica in the constellation Virgo. Scientists say these “bright” planets can be seen with the naked eye.
Ancient people have seen them as guides since ancient times.
