What order is the solar system in?

Answer 1

If by order you mean what order are the planets in, than I can help.

The order of the planets is decided by the distance the planets are away from the sun. The planet that is the closest to the sun (Mercury) is reguared as the plaet first in order as its orbit is closest to what we believe may be the centre of our Galaxy.

The order is as follows (For extra info I have added the distance away from teh sun each planet is):

1. Mercury (57 milllion kilometres)

2. Venus (108 million kilometres)

3. Earth (150 million kilometres)

4. Mars (228 million kilometres)

5. Jupiter (779 million kilometres)

6. Saturn ( 1.43 billion kilometres)

7. Uranus (2.88 billion kilometres)

8. Neptune (4.5 billion kilomteres)

9. Pluto (5.91 billion kilometres)

NOTE: Sometimes Pluto isn't identified as a planet. It can also be known as a dwarf or mino planet.

NOTE: During Neptunes orbit, it goes outside of Pluto's meaning that every few thousand years, Neptune is further away than Pluto, but for a majority, Neptune is closer.

NOTE: The distance away is based on the average distance.
