Kind of. All spheres and circles have a diameter, which is the length of a line passing through the center of the sphere. The only problem is that most planets aren't 100% perfect spheres, so the diameter could be different depending on where you start measuring from.

How do you calculate diameter of planet?

To calculate the diameter of a planet, you can use the formula for the diameter based on the planet's radius: Diameter = 2 × Radius. If you have the planet’s circumference, you can also calculate the diameter using the formula: Diameter = Circumference / π (where π is approximately 3.14). Additionally, if you have access to images or data from space missions, you can use measurements of the planet's shadow or transit across a star to estimate its size.
