Why cant you see the other planets in the night sky?

Answer 1

You can see 5 other planets with your naked eyes IF they are in the night sky. (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. Under ideal conditions Uranus can be just made out if you have exceptional eyesight.)

you dont know that???

the sky is big and the clouds are not realy little

if you want to see the planets buy a telesope

Answer 2

Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn are known as "The Visible Planets", and with good reason; they appear along the ecliptic (kind of an equator for the sky), and can be seen with the naked eye on a clear night. They look like stars, but they're not. Mercury and Venus are both called the "morning star" and the "evening star", because they're most visible around sunrise and sunset. (Neither goes high in the sky, because their orbits are so close to the Sun.) Mars appears as a red star, Jupiter's moons can be seen with an average set of binoculars (10x-12x), and Saturn's rings can be seen with a home telescope. How can you tell a planet apart from a star? Planets "wander" in the sky from night to night (the word "planet" comes from an ancient word for "wanderer)... and they DON'T TWINKLE.

Answer 3

Other planets in our solar system are much smaller and less reflective than the moon or stars, so they appear much dimmer. To see them, you typically need a telescope or binoculars, as they are easily overpowered by the brightness of the sun, the moon, and distant stars in the night sky.

Answer 4

The planets are generally too dim to be seen from such a distance, especially since they are hidden by the glare of the parent star.
