It's here!!! The "Parade of Planets."
This phenomenon occurs when several planets align across the sky.
The prime viewing window is from January 21 to February 21, and the best moment to catch the planets in all their glory is slated for the night of January 29. (oh, and your forecast, cloudy..we miss everything. I'm actually not sure what the forecast is..but it is NY in January.)
Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus will all line up just after sunset, around 7 p.m. local time.
Honestly, the weirdest thing is the end of the world people are absent. Isn't this like prime crazy thing happening to latch on?

A woman in Turkey is a proud world record holder after using her powerful thighs to crush five watermelons in 60 seconds. It happened last year, but Guinness just shared the video.
Can I just say, if you didn't wipe your legs down after each one...you could have done more. I'm sure there was a slipping issue..but come on!
