Inferior planets (Mercury and Venus) can never be opposite to the Sun, since they are nearer to the Sun than we are. Therefore, it follows that they can't be seen next to a full moon, which is opposite to the Sun in the sky.
The planets most certainly ARE visible in the northern hemisphere.
They designed two other rockets, the Saturn C-8 and the Sea Dragon i think, but they were never flown.
No. This character never appears or is mentioned in the film whatsoever. She is a fan-made character that appears in fanfiction that is often depicted as Mohatu's mate.
Emilio Largo (played by Adolfo Celi) appears as the villain in 1965's 'Thunderball'.
Surprisingly, No! Several large asteroids in the belt between Mars and Jupiter were once included as planets. AnswerActually There were only 8 planets before Pluto since the asteroids were never considered planets, so technically Pluto IS the first planet to be demoted. Of course if you want to add to this you could say that the new body, discovered by Mike Brown (2003 UB313) was reclassified as a dwarf planet although it was never officially named a planet. Another wrinkle: The first answer probably comes closer to the truth. Remember that there was no generally accepted definition of planet until recently, so controversy and debate abounded. The reason there were 8 generally accepted planets prior to Pluto is because those that had at one time been considered by some to belong on the list, Ceres, Pallas, Juno, Vesta and others, had been removed over time. These are among the bodies between Mars and Jupiter mentioned above. more detail The only planets visible to the naked eye were the first 5 planets. Asteroids and other bodies were not identifiable until the development of the telescope. Actually, by the time Ceres was discovered (Jan 1, 1801) Uranus' discovery was 20 years old so I don't believe Ceres was ever considered a planet. It is now considered a minor planet under new classification so Ceres has been promoted.
All the planets never lined up, but it was reported once that mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn were lined up together.
they are made out of matter???? i never knew thatMercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are the solid rock planets. While Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus(lol get it), and Neptune are made up of gas
There are five planets visible to the naked eye; Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. However, Mercury and Venus are interior planets (closer to the Sun that we are) and are never seen in the "full" phase. Mars, Jupiter and Saturn are never seen in the "new" phase, because they never pass between Earth and the Sun. Note: This is requirement 5.1 for the Astronomy merit badge.
The Jovian Planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The word "Jovian" means: "things that are similar to Jove". Jove, in Roman mythology, was another name for Jupiter, the chief god.The Outer/Jovian planets are as follows:JupiterSaturnUranusNeptunePluto is not included anymore. (and never was; too small and dense)
No. Jupiter never appears as a crescent from the earth
The planets that are further from the Sun than Earth is, can never be in inferior conjunction with Earth. So they would be Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Pluto and Ceres, are dwarf planets, but can't be in inferior conjunction with us either. Only Venus and Mercury can be.
There are none. The planet Venus is often seen in its gibbous and crescent phases, but never appears to be full; when it would be, Venus is hidden behind the Sun. And Venus only appears in the "new" phase twice per century, during the "transits of Venus". The planets Mars, Jupiter and Saturn appear in the gibbous and full phases, but never in the crescent or new phases.
The Jovian Planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The word "Jovian" means: "things that are similar to Jove".

"People Never Under Stand Jolly Men Excited Very Much!" Pluto, Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Earth, Venus, Mercury.
Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are the 4 inner planets (terrestrial planets). Although none of them have planetary rings of their own, surrounding them is the Asteroid Belt. Asteroids are chunks of rock and and dust particles that in the the creation of the sun, never grew big enough to be classified as planets. However, if you are asking about planetary rings, then the 4 gas giants, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune have those, Saturn's rings being the largest, of course.
Certainly, entire Galaxies and even some planets ( Jupiter and Saturn) are Gas Giants. It used to puzzle astronomers why the rings of Saturn had a specific gravity LESS than water. There is no easy answer. One German astronometer coined the term of a Gravitational Shadow which he never explained! ( this being Horbiger).
Any of the five "classical" planets might be visible in the early evening - or early morning - sky. Those are Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. The interior planets - closer to the Sun than Earth - can ONLY be seen in the evening or morning skies, and are never visible at midnight. Those are Mercury and Venus. The outer planets, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, may be visible any time of the night, depending on their positions in their orbits relative to the Earth. Mercury is difficult to see because it never gets very far from the Sun; it rises a little before sunrise or sets soon after sunset. Saturn can be difficult to see because it is quite far away, and isn't all that bright. For the last couple of years and for the next few years, Saturn is more difficult to see than usual, because the ring plane is even with the Sun.
