This week we can observe four of the five naked-eye planets ( Venus , Mars , Jupiter and Saturn , but not Mercury ) with the added bonus of a young moon, too.

In doing so, we will be able to discern the ecliptic: the plane of the solar system.

The chart shows a wide swathe of the sky, stretching from the south-east to south-west, as it will appear above London on 31 January at 6.45pm GMT .
