What planet has the greatest change in radius distance as it revolves around its primary body which is the sun?

Pluto :) Another viewpoint: Pluto is only a "dwarf planet". So, I think the answer is Mercury. Mercury has the most elliptical orbit of the planets. However, Mercury also has the smallest orbit. So, its distance from the Sun varies most in percentage terms, but not necessarily in actual kilometers. In fact, in kilometers, the answer is Uranus.


What planets is farthest from the sun 1. Earth 2.Venus 3.Pluto 4.Mercury?

Pluto was relegated to "Dwarf Planet" status in 2006, but irrespective of planetary status, it is still a body orbiting our sun. Pluto (Dwarf planet) is about 5,913 million km from the sun (on average). Earth is about 150 million km from the sun. Venus is about 108 million km from the sun. Mercury is about 58 million km from the sun. Depending on your definition of a planet, Pluto is easily the furthest but, if you insist that Pluto is no longer a planet, then it must be Earth.


How much do the largest moons of Jupiter weigh?

The largest moons of Jupiter, such as Ganymede and Callisto, do not have a weight since weight is a measure of the gravitational force acting on an object. Weight depends on the mass of an object and the gravitational pull on it, which varies depending on the celestial body.
