In the early spring, Venus appears to keep close company with the Moon. The planet currently seen near the moon is Jupiter. Venus usually disappears from our sights (because it's daylight) around the beginning of summer, of course depending where you are in the world. Venus, on my clock rises around 5am and sets right before 5pm...so there is a very small chance to view Venus at this time of year (September).

What time of year can you see planets?
There are generally a couple of planets visible every night of the year. Which planets will be visible and when depends on where each of the planets (and the Earth itself) are in their orbits. Here on August 28, 2009, for example, Jupiter rises about sunset and is brightly visible all night. Venus and Mars rise before dawn. Saturn and Mercury are not visible this month, because they are too close to the Sun to be seen.
When will the five most visible planets be seen?
the 5 most visible planets are the biggest planets such as jupiter saturn and mars pluto is to small and murcury isnt visible due to the suns rais.
When will the five most visible planets be observable in the evening sky during the next 12 months in the year 2013?
This question was posted on July 18, 2013. The Earth and all the other planets each orbit the Sun in their own orbits, and our view from Earth will change day to day as the other planets race ahead or lag behind in their orbits. Venus, the brightest planet, is visible low on the western horizon at sunset as the "Evening Star". It will remain visible in the western sky at sunset until November, when it will get too close to the Sun to view. Saturn is high in the sky at sunset, and sets around midnight. Mars, Jupiter and Mercury all rise just before the Sun does, and may be visible low in the Eastern sky just before dawn. The Earth will be overtaking planets Mars and Jupiter, so they will be rising earlier and earlier each morning, and as the Earth passes them on the inside track of their orbits, they will be easily visible high in the evening sky by November.
Are planets always visible?
The planets in our solar system are not always visible to an observer on Earth, for various reasons. Daylight reduces the visibility of planets significantly. Mercury and Venus, since they are inside the orbit of Earth (closer to the Sun), could only be seen in favorable conditions near sunset or sunrise and not in the middle of the night (or similar difficulties in solar transit, or other planets in opposition, close to the line of sight to the Sun). They would not be visible if occluded by a celestial body (or specifically if they are below the horizon). Neptune, being too distant, can't be resolved with the naked eye; exoplanets require sophisticated equipment to resolve.
Are planets visible or inside solar system?
They are both visible and inside the solar system.

The only visible planet is Jupiter, in the southeast. This month, Jupiter rises about at sunset, and is up all night. It's the brightest thing in the sky, until Venus rises.Venus and Mars will be visible in the east before dawn. Mercury and Saturn are too close to the Sun to be visible at all.

What does Astronomy have to do with the planets?
Astronomy covers a lot of areas like the study of stars, galaxies, nebulae, clusters, asteroids, comets and of course planets. If you go out and look at the night sky, if you know where to look, you will see some of the planets. Currently, in February 2009, Venus is visible as a very bright object in the west after sunset and Saturn is visible through much of the night near the constellation of Leo. Just looking at them, or when we are specifically observing or studying planets we are engaging in astronomy.
