Tonight, May 8, 2025, you can see several planets in the night sky depending on the time and your location:
- Mars is visible after sunset and during the early part of the night. It sets around 2:30 AM local time and is best seen just after sunset as the sky darkens
- Jupiter is visible after sunset but sets relatively early, around 11:30 PM local time, so you have a few hours to spot it in the evening sky
- Venus is very bright but is primarily visible before sunrise, rising early in the morning hours
- Saturn rises late at night or early morning and is better seen towards the end of the night or just before dawn
- Mercury is also visible before sunrise but is low on the horizon and harder to spot
In summary, for tonight's evening viewing, Mars and Jupiter are your best bets shortly after sunset, with Mars visible longer into the night. Venus, Mercury, and Saturn are more suited for early morning observation
