Question:- How far are the gas planets from the Sun?

Answer

The outer planets or the gas planets in the solar system are located at a significantly large distance from the Sun. The nearest gaseous planet, Jupiter orbits an average distance from the Sun, of about 778 million kilometers or 484 million miles. Saturn comes next and is approximately 1.4 billion kilometres or 888 million miles whereas Uranus resides at 2. 9 billion kilometres (1. 8 billion miles) away. Neptune, which is the last among the gas planets, orbits roughly about 4.5 billion kilometres (2. 8 billion miles) away from the star, Sun. These are largely due to the immense distances that are involved for the gaseous giants to remain cold and have long year periods. It also meant that relative to the inner planets, they were able to distance themselves and gain and hang onto the issuing elements, hydrogen and helium. It is such understanding that makes people comprehend immense distances and differences out there in the solar system.
