if a planet was to close to the sun it would burn up


How close can you get to planet Neptune?

neptune is the eighth planet from the sun . Comment: You can get as close as you like, but you would need a very good spacecraft and it would take years to get there.


If a planet has two moons and one moon twice as far from the planet as the other which moon would complete a revolution of the planet first?

The closer one.


If there were a planet closer to the Sun than Mercury would we be able to detect it?

Yes. In fact, Mercury is so bright that it can be seen with the naked eye - and it appears as a fairly bright star, so it would be fairly easy to detect a planet that is quite a bit closer to the Sun.


Just exactly how bright is sun when get close enough still see entire star and pretend enjoy the view comparision example describe what would it do to u if you were that close?

What is meant by 'albedo' of a planet?

Albedo is the fraction of sunlight that hits a planet that is reflected back out into space. A bright white planet that's full of ice would have a high albedo.


What planet weighs close to as much as earth does?

Venus would be the closest.


What would it look like if another planet were in a planet's atmosphere?

It would be blindingly bright. Resistance from moving through an atmosphere at orbital speeds creates super heated plasma. In this case you would basically have a planet-sized meteor. Considering that a meteor the size of an apartment building appeared brighter than the sun to those twenty miles below it, a whole planet would be unimaginably bright. The amount of heat radiated from such an event would incinerate anyone on the surface below.


How can Betelgeuse look so bright?

Betelgeuse is bright because it is a huge star known as a red supergiant. If it was where our sun was, it would be big enough to extend out beyond the planet Mars.

Which is the only planet not to have water in any form?

Mercury. It is too close to the Sun. Any liquids on the planet would burn away.


How much would an object with a mass of 5 kg weigh on Planet A?

Well you would need to know the force of Gravity on the surface of Planet A to answer this. The equation to use would be 5 multiplied by the force of gravity on Planet A = the weight in kilograms. So if Gravity on planet A was twice that on Earth then it would weigh 10Kg and if it was 1/2 that on Earth it would weigh 2.5 kg.
