If the central body has no atmosphere, then the shortest orbit is
(2 pi) times [ (radius of the central body) plus (height of any bumps on it) ] .
For the Earth, that would be something like 24,950 miles IF the Earth had
no atmosphere, and it would take about 86 minutes to sail around it once.

Which planet has the shortest orbital period and how long is it?
The planet Mercury has the shortest orbit time, because it is the closest to the sun.
Which two planets orbit the sun faster than earth?

Which planet in the solar system has the shortest orbital path round the sun?
Mercury has the shortest orbital path around the sun in our solar system. It takes just about 88 Earth days for Mercury to complete one orbit.
Which gas has the shortest period of revolution?
Mercury has the shortest period of revolution around the sun among the planets in our solar system. It takes about 88 Earth days for Mercury to complete one orbit around the sun.
Planet with shortest year?
Mercury. Mercury takes only about 88 Earth days to go around the Sun, so its year is 88 Earth days. It's the closest to the Sun, so it's the quickest to orbit it.
Does Venus have the shortest orbit?
Mercury has the shortest orbit.

Why does mercury have the shortest days of orbit around the sun?
because it is nearest to the sun
Which planet has the shortest orbital period and how long is it?
The planet Mercury has the shortest orbit time, because it is the closest to the sun.
How long does it take for a planet to orbit the sun write the names of the plants in order from shortest to longest orbit time?
The time it takes for a planet to orbit the sun is known as its orbital period. The order of planets from shortest to longest orbital period is: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Mercury has the shortest orbital period of about 88 Earth days, while Neptune has the longest orbital period of about 165 Earth years.
Does the closest planet to the sun have the shortest orbit?
Yes. The closer an object is to the Sun, the shorter the distance it has to travel to get around it.
What planets moon takes the shortest time to orbit?
the smallest planets moon probably because it has the least amount of way to go
