They're all distant.

The gas giants (Jupiter, Saturn) are more distant than the inner planets (Mars, Venus).

Exoplanets (planets around other stars are even (far) more distant.

What led to the discovery of the distant pulling planets?

The discovery of distant planets being pulled by unseen gravitational forces, such as exoplanets, was a result of advances in technology such as the development of powerful telescopes and space-based observatories that enabled astronomers to detect the subtle gravitational effects of these planets on their parent stars. The observations of these gravitational interactions allowed scientists to infer the presence of these unseen planets and characterize their orbits.


Why are we able to see the moon and the other planets?

We are able to see the Moon, other Planets and even the Sun. The Sun make this possible through its light, even at night. With the help of a powerful telescope we are able to see distant galaxies, distant stars that don't exist anymore, we are seeing only its light which is still travelling.


What element is named after the third most distant planet?

The third most distant planet from the sun is Earth. It orders from Mercury, Venus and then Earth. The answer would then be Tellurium.The planets that orbit the sun are constantly moving in orbit and therefore getting closer and further apart from each other. Therefore, the third most distant planet from the Earth is changing as the years pass.For a complete list of elements named after planets, seehttp://wiki.answers.com/What_elements_are_named_after_a_planet


Why do astronomers find it difficult to locate extrasolar planets with telephones?

Astronomers cannot locate extrasolar planets with telescopes because these planets are outside of our solar system and too far away for telescopes to directly observe. Instead, astronomers use indirect methods such as radial velocity and transit techniques to detect these distant planets.


What instrument is used to view distant objects?

A telescope is an instrument used to view distant objects. Telescopes use lenses or mirrors to gather light and magnify images, allowing users to see objects that are far away, such as stars, planets, and galaxies.

Is there life on other planets except on earth?

We do not know. So far, organic molecules have been located on planets and in distant stars, but this is not proof that organic life exists there.
