(Worthy Insights) – In a groundbreaking feat, photographer Josh Dury, 27, also known as the “Starman”, is believed to have captured the first-ever image of all seven planets, plus Earth, in a single frame.
This rare opportunity arose due to a rare celestial event known as the “great planetary parade”, which occurs when all eight planets align – a phenomenon that hasn’t happened since 1982. Mr Dury, an award-winning astronomical photographer, snapped the panoramic photo from Somerset’s Mendip Hills on February 22, potentially making history with this extraordinary image.
