List the names of the five most visible planets Explain which ones can appear in phases similar to lunar phases and which ones cannot and explain why?
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.
What else can I help you with?
Are planets visible or inside solar system?
They are both visible and inside the solar system.
Can you see other planets when your on Mars?
Yes, other planets would be visible from Mars just like they are from Earth. Mars has a similar night sky to Earth, so you can see planets like Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn, as well as stars and our own moon.
When will the five most visible planets be seen?
The five most visible planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn) can often be seen at different times of the year depending on their positions in their orbits. However, there are times when some or all of these planets are visible together in the predawn or post sunset sky. Consulting a stargazing app or website can help you identify when and where to look for them in the night sky.
Explain why calcium hydroxide can be used in this way?
Calcium hydroxide is used to test for carbon dioxide because the product of the reaction, calcium carbonate, is insoluble, and easily visible.
Are planets always visible?
The planets in our solar system are not always visible to an observer on Earth, for various reasons. Daylight reduces the visibility of planets significantly. Mercury and Venus, since they are inside the orbit of Earth (closer to the Sun), could only be seen in favorable conditions near sunset or sunrise and not in the middle of the night (or similar difficulties in solar transit, or other planets in opposition, close to the line of sight to the Sun). They would not be visible if occluded by a celestial body (or specifically if they are below the horizon). Neptune, being too distant, can't be resolved with the naked eye; exoplanets require sophisticated equipment to resolve.
Who used 80 wheels within wheels to explain the retrograde motion of the 5 visible planets?
KEPLER
Can you conclude that this parallelogram is a rectangle explain?

If Hair does not have feeling explain?

Which planets are visible in August?
There are five planets that are generally visible to the naked eye.In September 2009, Mercury and Saturn are too close to the Sun to be seen.Jupiter rises just before sunset, and is visible most of the night.Venus and Mars rise a couple of hours before dawn, and are easily visible in the eastern sky before the Sun rises. Venus is the incredibly bright one, and Mars has a distinct reddish tint, so they're both fairly easy to pick out.
Why are planets visible?
Planets are visible in the night sky because they reflect sunlight. As they do not emit their own light like stars do, they rely on the Sun's light to make them visible to us here on Earth. The brightness and position of planets change as they orbit the Sun, making them observable at different times throughout the year.
When will planets be visible in Florida?
Venus Jupiter
Is all the planets stars?
No, planets are not stars. Stars are huge balls of burning gas, planets are not. At certain times, there are 5 planets that are visible with the naked eye in the night sky. Some of these are similar to stars but much closer. They are Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. See the related link for more information.
