Of the known planets, Mercury is the one at the smallest average distance from the sun, and with the shortest orbit.
Mercury has the shortest orbit of all the planets because it is the closest planet to the Sun.
the smallest planets moon probably because it has the least amount of way to go
It is called as ORBIT.
Of the known planets in the solar system, Mercury, being nearest to the sun, completes its orbit in the shortest time . . . 88 earth days.
The time it takes for a planet to orbit the sun is known as its orbital period. The order of planets from shortest to longest orbital period is: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Mercury has the shortest orbital period of about 88 Earth days, while Neptune has the longest orbital period of about 165 Earth years.
The largest objects that orbit the sun are planets.
Elliptical Orbit
Tiny planets that orbit between Mars and Jupiter are called asteroids.
mercury. Its the closest to the sun. i dont know the details :P
Mercury has the shortest orbit.
Because it is closer to the sun so has a shorter orbit path than the other planets
