[AZ-Observing] Planetary Alignment

Mercury is now easily visible with the other planets in the western sky after 
sunset.  All 5 unaided-eye planets are now within 45 degrees of each other 
along the ecliptic. This web page by the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for 
Astrophysics is one of the best I've seen on the planetary alignment, with a 
graphic for every evening between now and May 18:
