BATON ROUGE – A bright sight that hasn t been seen since the middle ages will be happening again Monday, right in time for the Christmas holiday. Saturn and Jupiter’s orbits will be aligning putting them the closest planets have been in 800 years.
“It will look like a very bright object in the sky. It won’t look like a star in the sense of twinkling, because they are planets. But, they will have to be separated by a binocular. That’s how close they’ll be,” said Chris Kersey, the manager at the Highland Park Road Observatory.
