Your best chance to see the planets — Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Uranus and Mars — comes about 30 minutes after sunset in the western sky. Jupiter, Venus and Mars will all be pretty easy to see since they shine brightly, but you may need binoculars to see Mercury and Uranus.

Once you get your best view, snap a photo and then share it with us so we can showcase it on ClickOrlando.com and possibly News 6!

To submit a photo or video, click hereLook for the channel labeled Space and choose Skygazing as your category . You can also Pin photos using the new and improved (and FREE) News 6 App on your mobile device. Be sure to caption your post with your name and location so we can give you proper credit.

We’ll share your photos and videos during News 6 newscasts on Wednesday, just like we did last week for National Puppy Day!
