What else can I help you with?
How many planets in your univerese?
The number of planets is not known. The number of stars is not known either, nor if all have planetary systems. Certainly many billions of billions.
Which 2 planets are closest to Saturn?
Jupiter and Uranus are the two planets that come closest, these are in orbits either side of Saturn. As of February 2011 though, both of these planets are on the opposite side of the solar system, so it is in fact Earth and Mars that are closest to Saturn. this will change though as the planets precede around the sun at varying speeds.
What do you call the bodies either natural or artificial the orbit a planet or a moon?
Bodies that orbit planets or moons are called satellites.
Why planets' orbits are elliptical and not circular?
The solar system condensed out of an interstellar dust cloud; the original cloud was not a perfectly symmetrical object, either in shape or in composition, and as it condensed, the result was not neat or orderly; there were lots of collisions as well as near misses that altered planetary orbits.
Which planet of the solar system is neither an inner planet nor an outer planet?
The planets are either inner or outer planets. There are 8 planets. And of those eight planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are the inner planets. While: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are the outer planets.
What planets or other planetary bodies are on either side of Saturn?
Mercury venus earth mars jupiter saturn neptune pluto (Pluto was declared a dwarf planet, but still)
What is the general name for someone who studies planets?
They could either be a planetologist, a planetary scientist, or planetary astronomer.

What is a rocky object orbiting the sun between the planets?
The Asteroid Belt is a group of rocky objectsbetween the orbits of Mars, {the farthest from the Sun, of the four Terrestrial Planets=Mercury, Venus, Earth & Mars} and the Gas Giants= Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.Pluto has been demoted to a Planetary Object. (I wasn't too happy about that, either)
Name the science that studies the space bodies?
Astronomy is the science that studies space bodies like planets, stars, galaxies, and other celestial objects. It observes the positions, motions, and properties of these objects to understand their behavior and composition.
What do you call the bodies either natural or artificial the orbit a planet or a moon?
Bodies that orbit planets or moons are called satellites.
What planets suround Jupiter?
Jupiter has 63 confirmed moons in orbit around it. No planets are in orbit around it, since they would then be classed as moons. The planets in orbit either side of Jupiter are Mars and Saturn.
What are those planets and what are their make ups?
The planets are Mercury, Mars, Venus, Earth, Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune. These planets are made up of either gases, rock, water, or some mixture of these three elements.
Why planets' orbits are elliptical and not circular?
The solar system condensed out of an interstellar dust cloud; the original cloud was not a perfectly symmetrical object, either in shape or in composition, and as it condensed, the result was not neat or orderly; there were lots of collisions as well as near misses that altered planetary orbits.
Why planet Saturn have the greatest number of ringlets?
Either a Saturn 's moon got destroyed into pieces by a celestial body, or maybe some celestial bodies went within Saturn's roche limit which burst them into pieces too.
Why do some planets have no moons?
The process of planet growth from a solar nebular is a very chaotic one. The process of moon formation (or preservation in planetary orbits) is one of chance. Some planets will have no moons others will have many moons. However it is likely that the innermost planets will have the smallest number.
