Best Answer

The inner, rocky planets are near enough to be seen with the naked eye. Jupiter and Saturn are very large and again can easily be seen by the naked eye. Uranus is large enough to be seen at a distance of approx 3 billion km. While Neptune is only slightly smaller than Uranus and it is 1.5 times as far as away so that it is not visible to the naked eye.
