The planets that are farther from the Sun than Earth are (in this order): * Mars * Jupiter * Saturn * Uranus * Neptune and sometimes Y, er, I mean the Dwarf Planet Pluto. (It's 'sometimes' because Pluto's orbit brings it closer to the Sun than Neptune part of the time [most recently for 20 years ending in 1999] which is one of the reasons why it was reclassified as a Dwarf Planet.)
Is Pluto currently nearer to earth than Neptune?
No, currently Pluto is farther. Pluto crossed the orbit of Neptune in 1999, and is heading farther from the Sun and the Earth. It will be over 200 years before Pluto returns closer to us than Neptune.
Which planet will be farthest away from the sun in 1999?
