The planets follow a path across the sky like the sun, leaving the east and put in the west. Its apparent path is produced by the line is called ecliptic, this is because the inclination of the orbit not unlike that of Earth.
Having the exact location is easier to observe the planets, but carefully watching the sky with your binoculars you can achieve it, here are some simple tips. Jupiter
At first glance, Jupiter looks like a bright star, but its brightness continuously, not vibrant, with binoculars you will see the disk of the planet and the four Galilean satellites, is one night you can see how shifts.
Saturn Saturn is dimmer than Jupiter. Binoculars are no rings, but they appreciate a disc-shaped, sometimes you can see its main satellite, Titan.
But to see Saturn in all its glory is to use a telescope. Mercury and Venus
These planets have to look at this, immediately after the sun sets. So Venus is very bright and easier to see, is known as the morning star or evening.
Mars Mars is a reddish dot in the sky. Is well located but it is difficult to observe if there is a period of opposition, when it is closer to the ground. Even having a telescope, it is very difficult to see its surface details.
The outer planets Neptune and Uranus can be seen but it is almost impossible to do with the information precise location and without a telescope. More difficult or impossible to see Pluto without the help of a powerful telescope.
