What aspects of the planets orbits are nearly the same for most planets?
1. Planets in the orbits all conform to Kepler's three laws of planetary motion, 2. The orbits are all nearly in the same plane,3. The orbits are all elliptical, but not very ellptical and near-circular in shape, with the Sun slightly off-centre.Added:p2 = a3P. The planetary orbital period in earth years.a. Distance from sun in astronomical units, based on 1 AU for earth. ( for example, Mars would be about 1.5 AU and you would use this value in the equation, not the actual distance )
What are 3 distinctive characteristics of orbit of planet and moon in the solar system?
1). They orbit in the same around the sun, and as the sun. 2). Orbits of planets and their larger moons are in just about the same plane. 3). Almost all planets and moons rotate on their axes in the same direction as the planets orbit the sun.
Which 2 inner planets have the most craters?
Mercury and Mars.
What 2 planets have lots of asteroids?
The two locations in the solar system where most asteroids hang out are the Asteroid Belt (what a surprise!) between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, and the Kuiper belt, which lies outside the orbit of the outer planets of the solar system. The locations are probably best understood by looking at pictorial presentations, and the really interested person would find them on the sites located in the related links, below.

Do planets orbit once a year?
Only the earth orbits the sun once a year. Mars orbits the sun once every 2 years. As you get closer to the sun the planets orbit the sun in less than a year. As you get past Mars, it takes even longer.
Between what 2 planets would you find the asteroid belt?
The asteroid belt is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.

Jupiter and Saturn are the largest planets in our solar system.
An asteroid belt is between which 2 planets?
The asteroid belt, which consists of millions of individual asteroids of varying sizes, is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
