It depends on the planet and how fast it's going. Also, planets further from the sun have a longer path to travel. for example: Mercury only takes 88 days because it has a shorter path than all the other planets. Earth takes 1 year.

Here are all the orbital periods of the planets measured in Earth days and Earth years:


  1. Mercury: 87.97 days (0.2 years)
  2. Venus : 224.70 days (0.6 years)
  3. Earth: 365.26 days (1 year)
  4. Mars: 686.98 days (1.9 years)
  5. Jupiter: 4,332.82 days (11.9 years)
  6. Saturn: 10,755.70 days (29.5 years)
  7. Uranus: 30,687.15 days (84 years)
  8. Neptune: 60,190.03 days (164.8 years)

How long are the planets orbits?

The length of a planet's orbit around the Sun varies depending on the distance from the Sun. For example, Mercury has an orbit of about 88 Earth days, while Neptune's orbit is around 165 Earth years.


Why do some planets take a long time to orbit around the sun?

Some planets take longer to orbit the sun because they are farther away giving them a longer path to travel.


Why are there no moons around moons?

Most moons orbit close enough to their planets that the planet's gravity would render any orbit around a moon unstable in the long term.

Why does it take the outer planets so long to orbit the Sun?

The outer planets take longer to orbit the Sun, because they are farther away from the Sun. It make its gravitational pull weaker to the farther planets. That means that the outer planets take longer to orbit the Sun.

Why does Uranus have an irregular orbit?

Uranus has an irregular orbit due to the influence of its neighbor planet Neptune and other outer planets. The gravitational interactions between these planets can cause Uranus' orbit to become slightly off balance, leading to its irregular path around the Sun.


What do all planets in the solar system revolve around?

The Sun. There are 8 bodies classified as planets, and as of 2009 there are 5 classed as dwarf planets. There are many more objects with long orbits past that of Pluto, and these are being studied and classified.
