The planets that are closest to the sun get more heat than the ones more farther away. The four inner planets are dense and rocky. The four other planets have small solid cores surrounded by vast atmospheres.
The four inner planets have one significant satellite among them (the moon), while each of the outer planets has many satellites.
The four inner planets are small, while the outer planets are massive.
he wondered if there was a reason that the planets closest to the sun move faster than the planets farther away.
The sun (also known as Sol), which is also a star, is the closest to Earth. Other than the sun, the closest star is called Proxima Centauri, and it is about four and a half light years away, or about 32 trillion miles away. That's the closest.
The closest planet to the sun is Mercury. The order of planets is Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Planets after Mars are much farther away from the sun then the Mars and the closer planets. The first four planets are called the inner planets. The last four are called the outer planets.
Because they are farther away from the gravitational pull of the sun.
The moon is much closer to us than any planet or star. Venus comes the closest to us out of all the planets, and event at its closest is still more than 100 times farther away the the moon is. The nearest star other than the sun is several million times farther away than the moon is.

because it is farther or closer away.
Different planets have different orbit lengths because of their distance from the sun. Planets closer to the sun have shorter orbits, and planets farther away have longer orbits.
there are different distances such as the closest planet mercury is 58 km away from the sun.

they are farther away
The closest planet to the sun is Mercury. The order of planets is Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Planets after Mars are much farther away from the sun then the Mars and the closer planets. The first four planets are called the inner planets. The last four are called the outer planets.
The farther away from the sun, the farther apart the orbits of the planets become (the planets farther away from the sun are more spaced out). The average distance between Mercury and Venus, the two closest planets to the sun, is about 0.779 au. The average distance from Mars to Jupiter, the two planets in the middle, is about 5.32 as. The average distance from Uranus to Neptune, the two planets farthest from the sun, is about 33.2 au.
They are getting farther away from the sun.
it uses gravity. The sun has a gravitational pull, so it keeps the closest planet close to it. the farther away a planet is, the weaker the gravitational pull. Without it the planets would "drift" off from the sun. Plus all the moons wouldn't orbit us anymore. -----CMH
