Where are ExtraSolar planets found?
Extrasolar planets are planets found orbiting stars other then our own.
How much exo-planets has been found?
There is 8 planets in our solar system now, becuase scientists no longer classify Pluto as a planet. There where about 400 planets found so making it about 399 so about 391 exo-planets have been found. Hope that answers your question!
The largest planets of your solar system are found between which 2 planets?
mars and uranus
Why does each planet have different facts?
Each planet has different characteristics, such as size, distance from the sun, and composition, that result in unique facts about each planet. Factors like gravity, atmosphere, and temperature also play a role in determining the specific features and conditions found on each planet.
Where are the gas planets and where are they located?
The gas planets, in our solar system at least, are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, in order from least to greatest distance from the Sun. They are all found beyond the Asteroid Belt. The gas planets, or "Gas Giants" if you will, are larger and less dense than the other planets. They all have rings and several moons.
How does the mass of a planet relate to its distance from the sun?
There is no necessary connection between mass and distance. The mass of a planet does not affect its orbital speed, for example. However the "giant planets" are further from the Sun than the less massive "terrestrial planets". The outer (more massive planets) contain a lot of gases. So, they would surely lose a lot of their mass if they were nearer the Sun. (In fact, we have found planets called "hot Jupiters" orbiting other stars. These are Jupiter type planets, but they orbit very close to their star.)
What have they found on the planets?
the found different rock on the planets
Where can a meteors be found?
Meteors can only be found within the atmospheres of planets. If they are on the outside the atmosphere they are called Meteroids. And if they have already penetrated the surface of a planet they are called Meteorites.
Where are ExtraSolar planets found?
Extrasolar planets are planets found orbiting stars other then our own.
Does a planet's distance from the sun relate to the time it takes to revolve around the sun?
Yes, its all to do with Kepler's third law of planetary motion, which describes the relationship between the orbital period of the plant and the distance of that planet from the sun. Kepler found that the square of the period, P, is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis, a (P2 = ka3). The planets orbit the sun in an ellispse, the semi major axis is the `longest radius` within this ellipse. Kepler found that a constant `k` was needed in the equation - this was later found to relate to the mass of the objects. The planets mass is usually a lot less than the star its orbiting, so can often be dropped from the equation.
What are two main differences between Earth and other terrestrial planets?
Earth has considerable amounts of surface water. Surface water is negligible on Mars and the other terrestrial planets, though it appears as though Mars may have had water a few billion years ago. Earth has free oxygen in its atmosphere, likely as a result of photosynthetic life. That makes earth somewhat unique. This atmosphere is imperative in preventing harmful electromagnetic rays emitted from the Sun from reaching surface creatures in excessive amounts, necessary for the sustenance of life. Earth is also the correct distance from the Sun so that temperature extremes that prevent life from fostering do not exist.
What is found between the inner planets in the outer planets?
An asteroid belt.
What planets can be found in the solar system?
inner planets and gas giants
What is the distance between the planets Saturn and Uranus in miles?
I found the below chart, it will only give you an aproximate idea of the distance between the orbits of the planets. Hope this helps. -------------------------------------------- To some extent the question is meaningless because you would have to define where in the orbits the planets are to work out the instantaneous distance between them (Saturn could be on one side of the Sun and Uranus on the other) Thus the table below is the distance between the orbits of the orbital paths of the planets not the planets themselves. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Planet Mean Distance From Sun (millions of miles) Mean Distance in AU Mean Diameter (miles) Mercury 36.0 0.39 3,031 Venus 67.1 0.72 7,521 Earth 92.9 1.00 7,926 Mars 141.5 1.52 4,221 Jupiter 483.4 5.20 88,734 Saturn 886.7 9.54 74,566 Uranus 1,782.7 19.14 31,566 Neptune 2,794.3 30.06 30,199
Is their other planets that have life on them?
NO- People have found water on other planets but there is no life there.

The first four planets found closest to the sun are called?
The first four planets closest to the Sun are the four terrestial planets.
