Saturn, Mercury and Mars are grouped together...
Saturn, Mercury and Mars are grouped together in the evening sky, and you can see them after sunset if you have a clear view of the western horizon. At 6:30 p.m., Saturn will be 14 degrees high, with Mercury and a fainter Mars below. They remain together through the month but change their relative positions. On March 28, the thin crescent moon joins the three planets.
