The planet diameters in the Solar system are:

Mercury 4,878 kilometers (km)

Venus 12,100 km

Earth 12, 742 km

Mars 6,792 km

Jupiter 142,981 km around its equator, and

133,708 km around the north & south poles. Jupiter is made of gas, so its tremendously fast revolution time makes it bulge out around its equator.

Saturn 120,536 km at equator and 108,728 km around poles

Uranus 51,118 km

Neptune 49,500 km

There is a little bulge in Uranus and Neptune, but not really enough to report.

Do Jovian planets have larger equatorial diameters?

Yes, Jovian planets, which include Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, have larger equatorial diameters compared to terrestrial planets. This is primarily due to their gaseous composition and lower density, allowing them to expand significantly. For instance, Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, with an equatorial diameter of about 142,984 kilometers. In contrast, terrestrial planets like Earth and Mars have much smaller diameters.


What is the diameter of the planets in solar system in AU?

The diameters of the planets in the solar system can be expressed in astronomical units (AU), where 1 AU is the average distance from the Earth to the Sun, approximately 149.6 million kilometers. The diameters of the planets vary significantly: Mercury is about 0.0004 AU, Venus is approximately 0.00095 AU, Earth is around 0.0001 AU, Mars is about 0.00053 AU, Jupiter is roughly 0.0014 AU, Saturn is about 0.0012 AU, Uranus is around 0.0005 AU, and Neptune is approximately 0.00049 AU. These values illustrate the vast differences in size among the planets in our solar system.

Are the planets after Pluto in a different solar system?

No, the planets after Pluto are still within our solar system. After Pluto, there is Eris, Haumea, Makemake, and several other dwarf planets and minor planets that are part of our solar system. Beyond these, there is the Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud which are also part of our solar system.
