How many planets away from the sun is Neptune?

Answer 1

Neptune is in the same solar system as the earth. It is about 2.7 billion miles from earth. It takes like about four hours and two minutes to extend from the earth to Neptune. That would make Neptune about 0.00036782 light years from earth.

Answer 2

It's actually a tricky question. That's because the distance between Neptune and Earth is constantly changing, depending on where they are in their orbits around the Sun. But the quick answer is that Neptune is approximately 4.4 billion km away from the earth.

One astronomical unit is the average distance between the earth and sun. Neptune is about 30 AU out. So when earth and Neptune are on the same side of the sun, they are 29 AU apart, and when on opposite sides they are 31 AU apart. On average they are roughly 30 AU apart, or 2.7 billion miles (4.5 billion km).

Answer 3

The average distance of Neptune from the sun is 4.16793243 light hours. Because its orbit is elliptical, its distance from the sun changes depending on where it is in its orbit. The closest Neptune gets to the sun is 4.13214776 light hours. The farthest it gets from the sun is 4.20371323 light hours.

Answer 4

Neptune is about 2,793,100,000 miles from the Sun.

Answer 5

Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune - 5 planets away.

Answer 6

The average distance Neptune is from the Sun is 2,795,084,800 miles. Converting this distance into feet is problematic due to how large the number would be.

Answer 7

Neptune is the eighth planet from the sun in our solar system.

Answer 8

Neptune is the eight planet from the sun.

Answer 9

They are 4345 million km apart.
