It is the eighth planet sometimes nineth?
The outermost planet in our solar system, Neptune, is often referred to as the eighth planet. When Pluto was considered a planet (prior to 2006) during its orbit it would cross inside the orbit of Neptune making the latter the outermost planet.
Is it possible for Neptune to be the ninth planet from the sun?
Neptune is always the eight and last planet from the Sun.However, because of the declassification of Pluto from a planet into a dwarf planet, the rules have changed.When Pluto was a planet, it's orbit intersected that of Neptune, so at one period, Pluto was closer to the Sun than Neptune, whereas at other times, it was the other way around.See the related link for a pictorial which gives a pictorial representation.
Why is Pluto not always the most distant planet in the solar system?
Pluto's highly elliptical orbit sometimes brings it closer to the sun than Neptune. Though it should be noted that since Pluto is no longer considered a planet, the furthest planet from the sun is Neptune.
This planet sometimes crosses the orbital path of Neptune?
The planet that sometimes crosses the orbital path of Neptune is Pluto. Pluto's orbit is more elongated and tilted compared to the other planets in the solar system, leading to instances where it comes closer to the Sun than Neptune.
What is a gas giant planet that sometimes orbits beyond Pluto?
Neptune, the furthest planet from the sun. Sometimes the dwarf planet Pluto comes inside its orbit.
What planet and dwarf planet alternate as eighth position from the Sun?
Neptune is the farthest planet from the sun. Pluto's orbit is sometimes farther out, but Pluto is no longer considered a planet.

You were the farthest planet from the sun now you are not?
The farthest planet from the sun used to be Pluto. Pluto is now considered to be a dwarf planet, not a planet. When Pluto was a planet, its orbit would sometimes take it closer to the sun than Neptune, making the Neptune the farthest planet from the sun for that period of time.
What planet sometimes crosses the orbital path of Neptune.?
Pluto is sometimes closer to the Sun than Neptune.
When Pluto was considered a planet why was neptune the farthest planet from the sun from 1979 to 1999?
Neptune's orbit is more elliptical than Pluto's, causing their orbits to sometimes intersect. From 1979 to 1999, Neptune's elliptical orbit brought it closer to the sun than Pluto, making Neptune the farthest planet from the sun during that time.

Why does the farthest planet from the earth sometimes change?
The position of planets in our solar system changes because they all orbit the Sun at varying speeds and distances. As they move along their elliptical orbits, their relative positions with respect to Earth change. This causes the farthest planet (Neptune) to sometimes appear closer to Earth depending on where each planet is in its orbit.
Why is Pluto considered a planet?
It is not considered a planet, it is a planet, just like Earth, Venus, Neptune (etc).
Is Neptune father from the sun than Jupiter?
