The closest Pluto gets to the Sun is 4.4 billion kilometers, which means that light from the Sun always takes longer than 4 hours to reach Pluto. For a rocket vehicle travelling at the speed that astronauts went to our Moon (less than 40,000 km/hr), it would take over 12 years to reach Pluto!
The trip would only take 5.64 seconds to reach Pluto (about 4.7 billion miles) at that speed.
Pluto would be the best answer, but Pluto is only a dwarf planet. Also its largest moon, Charon, is still not as big as Pluto itself.
To witness one complete revolution of the planet Pluto, you would have to be at least 248 years old.
You can't drive to another planet. Cars don't leave the ground, so you would never leave the planet Earth. You would need to use a rocket to get to Pluto, but nobody's ever done it. Certainly more than your lifetime. I've read in a book at measured by driving but it seemed ridiculous. It also depends on how fast you drive. Are you planning to do that? ;D
Travelling at 600 mph, a vehicle would make the 3.58 billion mile trip in around 680 years, based on plutos average distance from the sun and assuming the vehicle left earth when the earth was at it's closest point to Pluto in it's orbit.
Pluto.
None. Old textbooks would say that it is Pluto, but Pluto is no longer considered a planet.
The surface gravity on Pluto would be 0.58 meters/second2, or about 1/17th that of earth's.
Neither one! Jupiter is the biggest and Neptune is the smallest. If they didn't announce that Pluto wasn't a planet anymore, Pluto would be the smallest.
The trip would only take 5.64 seconds to reach Pluto (about 4.7 billion miles) at that speed.
scientists decided that it is not a planet because there are other things out in earth that are basically the same thing well has the same features as Pluto therefore if they named Pluto a planet they would have to name those planets as well

Which planet would I weigh the least Jupiter, Pluto, Saturn, or Earth
Pluto would be the best answer, but Pluto is only a dwarf planet. Also its largest moon, Charon, is still not as big as Pluto itself.
Neptune. It would be Pluto, but Pluto is a dwarf planet ( a planet that was a planet, but decided that it wasn't a planet)
Since Pluto's gravitational pull on its surface is only about 6% that of the Earth on its surface, you would weigh 6% of your Earth weight if you were to stand on Pluto's surface. So, to convert your Earth-weight to your Pluto-weight, you have to multiply your Earth weight by 0.06. In this case, if you weigh 125 lbs on the Earth, you would weigh 7.43 lbs on Pluto.
To witness one complete revolution of the planet Pluto, you would have to be at least 248 years old.
