The planets never were and never will be in alignment.
Even if they were, they would not have any affect on our lives.
That depends a lot on what you mean with "alignment". It is extremely likely that all planets will be exactly in one line, as depicted in some popular Science Fiction or fantasy programs. After all, the planets move more or less independently one of another.
The more variation you allow (for example, "all planets within an arc of 10 degrees", "... of 20 degrees", etc.), the more likely this will happen within any given timeframe.
By the way, Pluto is no longer officially considered a planet; that leaves us (officially) with 8 planets.
What else can I help you with?
Has there ever an alignment o all the planets of your solar system?
It depends on what you mean by "alignment." There have been plenty of times that all the planets have been on more or less the same side of the Sun; there probably has never been a precise alignment (within, say, a few degrees) of all the planets simultaneously.
When will the planets aline?
Planets do not align in the sense of forming a straight line. While planetary alignments can occur, they are not rare and do not have any significant impact on Earth. The last general alignment visible from Earth occurred in 2000, and the next similar alignment is predicted in 2467.
How often do all the planets line up?
All of the planets in our solar system rarely align perfectly due to their different orbital paths and speeds. When a multi-planet alignment does occur, it is not generally a true line-up in space but rather an alignment as seen from Earth. Such alignments can happen every few decades, but a perfect alignment where all planets are in a straight line is extremely rare and has not occurred for hundreds of years.
What is it called when all the planets are aligned?
It isn't called anything because it can never occur. It never has occurred in the past, and never will occur in the future. Even if all the planets were at the same heliocentric longitude relative to the Sun, the tilts of their orbits vary enough from the plane of the ecliptic that they still wouldn't be in line.Another, more accurate, answerThink of a very simple alignment of two planets, Earth and Venus. This only occurs a little more than once a century. To add a third planet to this alignment would take many millennia. To have all eight planets aligned would require an infinite amount of time.Even so, the word for it is syzygy.
Explain why on some occasions you can see the planets line up in the sky?
When planets are in alignment it is only from our point of view, in reality they are millions of kilometers apart. It is like when you block the sun with your hand, it may seem like they are close but that is truly not the case.
What happens during planet alignment?
There is no great event that would occur with a planet alignment. Scientists actually believe a planetary alignment could never occur because of the different planes of the planets.

Why doesn't a lunar or solar eclipse occur every 15 days?
The orbit of the moon is not perfectly uniform about the earth (the same can be said about the planets orbiting the sun). The alignment of the earth moon and sun has to be perfect for an eclipse to occur, it rarely is though.
Is it possible for all the planets to align in our solar system?
Yes, it is theoretically possible for all the planets in our solar system to align, but it is extremely rare due to the different orbits and speeds at which they move. The last time all the planets aligned in a straight line was in 561 BC, and the next alignment of all the planets is not expected to occur for several centuries.
Is Pluto a Planetoid?
No. It is a dwarf planet.Pluto and the Kuiper Belt objects may share structural similarities with asteroids, but the ones we can observe are much larger than Main Belt asteroids.Pluto's OrbitPluto is usually farther from the Sun than any of the eight planets; however, due to the eccentricity of its orbit, it is closer than Neptune for up to 20 years out of its 249 year orbit. Pluto crossed Neptune's orbit January 21, 1979, made its closest approach to the Sun on September 5, 1989, and remained within the orbit of Neptune until February 11, 1999. This close orbit will not occur again until September 2226.
How many years between every planetary alignment?
Planetary alignments occur every few years. The exact time between alignments varies depending on the specific planets involved and their orbits around the sun. Some alignments occur more frequently than others due to the differing orbital periods of the planets.
What is a fact about mars?
Comment: The answer below is another example of those fairly irrelevant answers that occur from time to time :- solar system- sunsfamily what are the sunsfamily we have: 1.moon 2.comets 3.star 4.asteroid 5.planets what are the major planets? 1.mercury 2.venus 3.earth 4.mars 5.jupiter 6.saturn 7.uranus 8.neptune we have no pluto because it is small ... what planet are cold and dark answer: pluto because pluto is far from the sun
Why graps are used in data structures?
Gaps occur because of the alignment.
