I need help identifying an astronomical event I saw as a kid
I tried googling this and surprisingly didn't find very much, if anything.
When I was a kid, around 1985, or, a year specifically close to it in the mid-1980s for sure, my dad, who was a big astronomy buff, got me out of bed between 5 am to 6 am one particular morning and took me outside to look up at the early morning sky, and behold, there was atleast 3 to 5 planets all lined up together in the sky in a fairly straight line, it was the most amazing thing I've ever seen, still remember it to this day. Anyway, I wanted to identify it by name what that event was, so I could read up about it, unfortunately, my dad passed away years ago, or otherwise I'd ask him.
Just to re-iterate, this event definitely happened in the mid-1980s (sometime between 1984-1986) I know this for sure because of the house we lived in at the time, by the way, if this may help, we lived in Hawaii at the time, I have no idea if other places around the world could also see that event like we did, maybe they could too, I do not know.
