What will happen at another planetary alignment with jupiters 62 moons?
During a planetary alignment involving Jupiter and its 62 moons, there will be gravitational interactions among the moons that could lead to changes in their orbits and possibly create resonances or collisions. These alignments provide scientists with opportunities to study the moons' interactions and dynamics in more detail. The alignment itself won't significantly impact Earth due to the vast distances involved.
