Some planets can be seen from the earth at certain times. Volcanoes in some planets erupt and the ash surrounds the gas clouds so it seems darker to us. But

at different times of year we can see the planets brighter. That is because because of the sun's light. Planets do not have their own light. So they reflect the light of the sun, the big ball of fire.

Why are planets seen in different locations at different times?

Because the planets are closer to us so when we look at the planets we can see them move so the closer an object is to you the easier it is to follow its motion. Hope you could use my answer


Why does the length of a day and year vary from planet to planet?

Some planets rotate faster or than others. Also the planets take different times to orbit the Sun.


Time needed to rotate around the sun?

One year for planet Earth, different times for each of the other planets.


Why do other planets have a different number of days compared to other planets?

If you mean in a year, then it's because it takes different times to circle the sun then planet earth (because they are more far away or closer).


What two planets have seasons?

Earth and Mars are the two planets in our solar system that have seasons. These seasons are caused by the tilt of the planets' axes, which affects the amount of sunlight reaching different parts of the planet at different times of the year.


Why can you see the planets at night?

Mercury


Do planets change position during each season and when do they change for each season?

Yes, planets do change position during each season. The position of planets changes due to the Earth's orbit around the Sun, causing different planets to be visible at different times of the year. The change in position of planets varies depending on the planet and the season.


How is a year different on each planet?

A year on each planet is determined by its orbital period around the sun. For example, a year on Earth is around 365 days, while a year on Mars is about 687 Earth days. The length of a year on a planet is influenced by its distance from the sun and its orbital speed.


Why does Mars look brighter at some times of the year than at others?

Like the moon, all the planets get their apparent brightness by reflecting light towards us from the Sun. At some stages Mars is reflecting more light towards Earth, so it appears to be brighter. Also, sometimes it is closer than at other times, so it appears to reflect more light towards us.


Are day's year's and season's the same on all planets?

No, they are real different from Earth.


Planets you can see with an unaided eye?

The five planets visible to the unaided eye are Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. These planets are typically visible at different times of the year and can be easily spotted in the night sky without the need for a telescope.


How many times does 3 planets rotate around the sun in a seven year period?

The question makes no sense. Which three planets? They all have different orbital periods, also, so even if you were more specific there's not one answer but three separate ones.
