What is the correct order of planets?

Well, there's nine so far - Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto.  However, scientists have discovered other planets that orbit our Sun that are even further out than Pluto!  So there's a possibility that we may update our information involving the solar system sometime in the future....

Yes, the planets go through phases. Celestial phases are basically light hitting different hemispheres at different times.

Not exactly the same. In Spanish:\n\n- Mercurio\n- Venus\n- Tierra (Earth)\n- Marte\n- Júpiter\n- Saturno\n- Urano\n- Neptuno\n- Plutón\n\nSorry I don't remember the exact order.

You can go to http://astrogeology.usgs.gov/SolarSystem/ , and get the data by clicking on the names of the planets one by one.

Yes! The 10th planet was discovered in 2005, and is temporarily known as 2003 UB313.  However, 2003 UB313 is located in the Kuiper belt, which is made up of numerous objects, and there may be many more that could be counted as planets.  The definition of "planet" is currently a topic of debate, and some argue that neither 2003 UB313 nor Pluto should be considered planets.  I believe that the popular media has sometimes refered to it as "planet x," but this is not its official name.

When I was in school, there was 9.  \n\nMercury\nVenus\nEarth\nMars\nJupiter\nSaturn\nUranus \nNeptune\nPluto\n\nNow, there has been another "planet" found.  I am not sure if they have classified it as a planet in our solar system just yet.

No one knows.\n\nScientists keep discovering large round things going around the sun (which is one definition of a planet).  Up until a few years ago, the pretty much accepted answer was 9:\n\n Mercury\n Venus\n Earth\n Mars\n Jupiter\n Saturn\n Uranus\n Neptune\n  and Pluto.\n\nBut in 2003 astronomers Mike Brown, Chad Trujillo, and David Rabinowitz discovered another planet-sized body, WAY out beyond Pluto.  The official name of this 'planet' for now is just 2003UB313, which is an astronomical code for keeping track of new objects.  The astronomers submitted the discovery to the International Astronomical Union (IAU).  The IAU will not only pick a name for this new body, but they will also determine if it will be officially called a planet.  \n\n Since UB313 is bigger than Pluto, there is actually a chance that, if the IAU decides UB313 is not a planet, then Pluto will not be called a planet either.  By discovering a new 'planet,' we may have decreased the number of planets in our solar system from 9 to 8!\n\n But that's not the end of the story.  Mike Brown and the gang keep discovering other big things out there that could possibly be called planets.  Their web site (see the link below) lists three other large objects they have found that might someday be called planets.\n\n And THAT's not the end of the story, either. That's just our solar system.  Scientists are discovering planets that go around other stars quite often.  The second web site below is NASA's place for information about these extrasolar planets. As of 15 June there were 193 of them!

At 09:38am EDT on May 15, 2006, the planets were not aligned, not even close--the planets were all over the sky.\n\nIn order along the ecliptic, starting with Aires (where the sun is) and going around through Pisces, etc. we have:\n\nMercury, Venus, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Jupiter, Saturn, Mars\n\nSaturn and Mars were about 17 degrees apart, but everything else was even farther apart.  Saturn and Jupiter were farthest apart, at 96 degrees.

There are two main types of planets: the rocky planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars) and the gas giants (Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus).  Rocky planets are also called terrestrial planets, and gas giants are also known as Jovians.  Pluto is sometimes classified as an icy planet, although its status as a planet (or a lost comet/moon) is disputed.

If you write the number sequence 0,3, 6, 12, 24, 48, 96, and add 4 to each number (4, 7, 10, etc) then divide by ten, you get the distance of each planet from the Sun, measured in astronomical units (1 a.u.=93 million miles=150 million kilometers).  This works out as Mercury 0.4, Venus 0.7, Earth 1.0, Mars 1.6, --- 2.8, Jupiter 5.2, and Saturn 10.0  This works out pretty accurately, but there was nothing at 2.8. Herschel discovered Uranus in 1781 at 19.6, right where another planet was supposed to go according to the Titius rule.   When Ceres was discovered in 1801, it was at 2.72, filling the gap.  Neptune, however is not near 38.8, but at 30.  Astronomers now believe the "law" is either a coincidence, or the result of billions of years of gravitational interactions.

All nine planets last aligned within 30-degrees (about as close as they can be aligned) in 561 BC. The next such alignment won't happen until 2854. All nine planets are slightly aligned every 500 years, and are grouped within 30 degrees every 1 to 3 alignments.
