All the planets never lined up, but it was reported once that Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn were lined up together.
The planets line up about every 10,000 years.
All of the planets orbit the sun at different rates, closer planets orbit quickly, while further planets orbit more slowly. They are all more or less on the same plane, so their paths in the sky will be similar to each other as the earth rotates. They sometimes appear to line up in the sky every now and then as they orbit at their different rates.
No. The planets CANNOT all "line up", because they all orbit in slightly different planes. We occasionally see one or two planets line up, but never more than three at once.
The chances of the planets ever lining up are so statistically improbable that it is safe to say it will never happen. The actual chances of the planets ever lining up has been calculated to be about once every 8.6 x 1046 years. (That's once every 86 billion, trillion, trillion, trillion years.) Since the Sun will be gone in about 10 billion years, it is impossible for this to happen.
The planets that are farthest from the sun are called the Outer Planets. They are located outside the asteroid belt.They are (from closest to the sun):JupiterSaturnUranusNeptuneThey are all made up of gases.
No. The planets all orbit the sun at different rates. In rare instance they roughly line up, but not on any particular side of the sun.
Never.
They don't. This is statistically impossible. All eight planets will never line up during the lifetime of the sun, which is about 10 billion years.
The planets line up about every 10,000 years.
no stupid. now why would we die when the planets line up?
Yes, easily, because the Sun is much bigger than all the planets combined. The Sun could also swallow up all of the dwarf planets as well.

Its when all the planets line up
I think that the planets will not line up in 2008 because they are all out of orbit. i believe that there will not be solar eclipse in 2008
The sun and all of the bodies that circle around it including planets and moons make up the solar system.
Earth is the third planet from the Sun.
