I heard about this on the radio this morning. Planets all over the solar system are visible all in one night. Obviously the link I'm sending is locations specific so you'd have to adjust for your locality. Not to mention, I randomly picked a link which might not be the best or most accurate.

"Yo-ho, fantastic!" https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/2018/10/news-first-exomoon-nasa-…
