The planets appeared in the sky at the same time. and so arrayed Caused by each planet orbiting in a position that can be simultaneously viewed from the point of view of an observer on Earth. As far as the view from space is concerned, the planets are not aligned in a straight line. Because each planet orbits differently distributed according to the orbit of that star. The opportunity to queue up for observers on land to view at the same time is a rare phenomenon. Especially up to 7 stars appear in a row like this.
