There are no planets at that distance from the Earth. The Earth is 8 light minutes away from the Sun. Neptune is 3 light hours from the Sun. The closest star, and therefore the closest planet outside of our solar system would be Alpha Centuri at 4.24 light years away.

What planet is one light year from our sun?

The planets that orbit the sun change in distance based on their orbits, but are the only planets that have relatively consistent distance from the sun. These distances are measured in Astronomical Units, the average distance between the earth and the sun. Of these, the one that's furthest away isn't even close to a light-year away from the sun, as Pluto averages 39.5 AU, and 1 light-year is 63,239 AU.

Why are planets brighter at different times of year?

Some planets can be seen from the earth at certain times. Volcanoes in some planets erupt and the ash surrounds the gas clouds so it seems darker to us. But at different times of year we can see the planets brighter. That is because because of the sun's light. Planets do not have their own light. So they reflect the light of the sun, the big ball of fire.


The sun is 1 light year away from the earth?

Wrong!!!!! The Sun is 1 A.U. ( Astronomic Unit) from Earth. Because of the immensity of space, distances are calculated in 'A.U.' or 'Light Years'. Photons of Light from the Sun takes approximately 8 minutes to reach Earth.
