Saturn and Mars will soon be getting very close to the alpha star, Regulus.

This will make all three very visible, with Saturn being the easiest out of all of them to see.

Mars, well known for its red color, will be the hardest to see out of the three.

Mars will pass Regulus at a distance of just 0.7 degrees tomorrow night, with some great images sure to follow.

Just 24 hours later, Mars will also pass Regulus, getting near Saturn.

On July 10, the planets will be only 0.6 degrees apart.
