Fairly close to the Sun. Visible around sunrise and sunset only.
Mars is just 15 degrees from the Sun in the sky, so it is difficult to see.

Neptune is visible during most of the night, but it is best viewed in the late evening hours after sunset. It is quite close to the horizon, making it fainter because the light has to cover a larger distance when traveling through the Earth's atmosphere. Make sure to get an unobstructed view. Very faint, use binoculars.
