Ah, my dear friend, Earth is actually closer to the sun than Neptune. Our beautiful blue planet is just the right distance from the sun to keep us warm and cozy. Keep observing the wonders of the universe, there's always something new to discover!
Yes, Neptune is the eighth planet, and the farthest from the Sun. Back when Pluto was considered a planet, Neptune became the ninth planet for 20 years of Pluto's orbit as Pluto is closer to the Sun than Neptune for part of its orbit.
The next-to-farthest planet is Uranus.The farthest planet is Neptune.
No, Venus is closer to the Sun than the Earth.

The position of planets in our solar system changes because they all orbit the Sun at varying speeds and distances. As they move along their elliptical orbits, their relative positions with respect to Earth change. This causes the farthest planet (Neptune) to sometimes appear closer to Earth depending on where each planet is in its orbit.
Earth. Neptune is the farthest planet away. Since the Sun is totally far away, this makes Neptune closer to Earth. Its like " the sun, a couple of planets including Earth, and then Neptune".
Neptune is closer to the sun but because of Pluto's elliptical orbit, Neptune is farther away form the sun for 20 years. Neptune is closer to the sun but because of Pluto's elliptical orbit, Neptune is farther away form the sun for 20 years.
Currently Neptune is closer to the sun, however Pluto can get closer when it's at the closest part of its orbit. Pluto was closer then Neptune about 10 years ago, but it currently heading out to the farther part of its orbit, and con't be closer than Neptune again for over 200 years.
Yes, Uranus is the closest planet to Neptune.
Mercury and Venus are closer to the sun than we are. (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune)
Earth is closer to the sun

No. Neptune is the 8th planet from the sun. The 3rd is Earth.
Mercury is closest. Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune.

I am not sure where this questioner is coming from! Neptune if the furthest planet!
The next-to-farthest planet is Uranus.The farthest planet is Neptune.
