    		The odds of that occurring are so infintesimal that I would say no.

    		All 8 planets? Seems it should happen every once in a [really long] while. Of course, Mars has a slightly eccentric orbital plain, and so does Neptune. So maybe we won't see it again ever

    		All the Planets and Solar Bodies do not orbit in the same plane so "Alignment" is impossible.
