Mars and Jupiter are always in a straight line. You need a third point of reference to compare the two to. Take a sheet of graph paper and randomly place two points. They can be connected by a straight line and no matter where they are on the paper, they can be aligned.
Oh, dude, the second closest planet to Jupiter is Saturn. It's like Jupiter's cool neighbor, hanging out just a little further away in the solar system. So, if Jupiter ever needs to borrow some sugar, Saturn is just a short cosmic hop away.
No, Mars is closer to Earth than Jupiter.
The two planets next to Jupiter are Saturn and Mars. Saturn is located immediately next to Jupiter, followed by Mars.
The two planets that are the closest to Mars is Earth and Jupiter.
The frost line of the solar system is the distance from the sun where temperatures are low enough for volatile compounds like water, ammonia, and methane to condense into solid ice grains. This line is roughly located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter in our solar system.
Give that Jupiter's mean radius is 69,911 kilometers and Mars' radius is 3,396 km, you would be able to line up about 20 Mars across Jupiter. For comparison you could line up 11 Earths across Jupiter. In terms of volume you can fit 8,724 Mars and 1,321 Earths inside Jupiter.

The straight line distance varies between about 340 million miles when they pass each other, and 630 million miles when they are on opposite sides of the Sun.
Sort of. Jupiter is the next planet in line after mars, but there are many millions of miles between them. There is also the asteroid belt in between the two planets.
The angle between the line from Earth to Jupiter and the line from Earth to the Sun when Jupiter is at opposition is 180 degrees. This is because Jupiter, Earth, and the Sun are aligned in a straight line during opposition, with Earth in the middle.
No, Mars is closer to Earth than Jupiter.
Jupiter
Jupiter is further from Earth than Mars. Jupiter is the fifth planet from the sun, while Mars is the fourth planet.
Mars has a smaller orbit than Jupiter.
Jupiter has 79 known moons, while Mars has 2. Therefore, Jupiter has 77 more moons than Mars.
Juno was the mother of Mars. Jupiter may have been his father.
Jupiter has not got life however mars does.
