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.
