What is the distance from the planets?

the distance from the planets is 6.5 million miles between each planet.


How far is Uranus planet from the Earth?

Because planets tend to move in an elliptical orbit, their distance from Earth changes. The minimum distance from Earth to the planet Uranus is 2.57 billion kilometres, or 1.6 billion miles. The maximum distance is 3.157 billion kilometres.


Do planets collide when the distance of the planets from the sun change?

The distance of the planets from the sun does not change because of the gravity surrounding each planet is pulling them into continuous orbit.

The apogee.


What is the relation of the planet's temperature to it's distance?

if you are asking "what is the relation of the planet's temperature to it's distance from the sun" then the answer is: Planets closer to the sun tend to be warmer than planets further from the sun.


What is neighboring planets to Jupiter?

The two planets that have orbits that neighbor Jupiter's are Saturn and Mars. The maximum distance of Mars form the Sun is 249,209,300 km The maximum distance of Jupiter form the Sun is 816,520,800 km The maximum distance of Saturn from the Sun is 1,513,325,783 km From this you can work out the distance they would be apart if they were all at their maximum distance and all lined up on the same side of the Sun. However, remember the planets all go round the Sun and at any one time the distance between Mars, and Jupiter or Jupiter and Saturn will depend where they are in relation to each other on their orbits. In some cases they could be on either side of the Sun.


Why does each planet have different facts?

What is distance to planet Venus from earth?

Unfortunately there is no simple answer to that. The distance is constantly changing as the planets move in their orbits.


How does the planets distance from the sun affect its conditions?

The farther away from the sun the planet is, the more space it has to cover. Therefore, the planets distance from the sun whereas, if i am half the distance from Earth/Sun, that planet will get more energy. But if I am twice the distance from Earth/Sun, I will receive less energy.


How does the gravity of the planet vary with the planets mass?

The gravitational force on an object at a standard distance is proportional to the mass of the planet.
