The starts are aligning!!!!

So remember those crazy mynas that predicted the end of the world in december of 2012?   Well one of their end of the world signs was that the planets would align in a rare line.  A picture below illustrates the effect.

Well if you get up early enough, you can actually see this happening;  NO not the end of the world, just the planets aligning.  

For the last two months, almost all the planets have been hiding behind the sun, but this week they all emerge and are arrayed in a grand line above the rising sun. Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Jupiter are visible, and you can add Uranus and Neptune to your count if you have binoculars or a small telescope.  I dont want anyone to worry but next year on December 21 2012(possible doomsday), astronomers say no remotely similar alignment will occur.  To make everyone feel extra safe, NASA released a warming statement saying, "Nothing bad will happen to the earth in 2012,"  

THANKS NASA FOR ASSURING US!!!!

Now I don't want to ruin how the world ends, but I will give you a hint: something about gravity fields and planets hitting each other. You ever seen a planet hit another one? They all punch like babies. Except Uranus -- it really packs a punch. Get it?
