For many, astrology is part jest and part moral compass. It’s how people either understand (or diagnose) themselves and their loved ones, but it's also a belief framework for interpreting the past, present and an unknown future.

Four planets to appear in a line, a rare occurrence
A fifth planet, Mercury, will be visible in the sky but not at the same time, with Mercury visible in the evening but disappearing before the others become visible in the morning.
Jupiter, Venus, Mars and Saturn will align in a diagonal line in pre-dawn hours this week, joined by the moon. The quartet can be seen in the east-southeast sky before dawn, with planets distinguishable based on the fact they are brighter and twinkle less than stars.

ROANOKE, Va. (WDBJ) - There's rarely ever a lull in things to see in the night sky. From the International Space Station, to the latest meteor showers, to planets that look like stars.
For those early-risers, there's a special treat to see 45 minutes before sunrise through the end of April. Jupiter, Venus, Mars and Saturn will be visible just before sunrise in the southeastern sky. No binoculars needed, although, Mars will be quite faint.
Venus' Atmosphere Stops it From Locking to the Sun - Universe Today
Of the thousands of exoplanets we’ve discovered, most of them closely orbit red dwarf stars . Part of this is because planets with short orbital periods are easier to find, but part of this is that red dwarf stars make up about 75% of the stars in our galaxy.
Earth’s pull isn’t uniform across the Moon. It’s a bit stronger on the part of the Moon closer to Earth, which distorts the Moon’s shape just a bit.

An important future goal in exoplanetology is to detect and characterize potentially habitable planets.
Results suggest that particularly O3 and CH4 yield an improved abundance estimate by doubling the S/N from 10 to 20.
