1. how long does it take the
planets to orbit the sun?

2. opening STATEMENT
EACH PLANET HAS ITS OWN ORBIT AROUND
THE SUN HERE ARE A FEW EXAMPLES....

3. mercury
MERCURY IS THE CLOSEST TO THE SUN SO
IT IS THE FASTEST PLANET TO ORBIT THE
SUN.IN FACT MERCURY ONLY TAKES 88 DAYS
TO ORBIT THE SUN.IN OTHER WORDS
MERCURY’S ORBIT ONLY TAKES 24% AS
LONG AS EARTHS ORBIT.

4. VENUS
VENUS ORBITS CLOSER TO THE SUN THAN
EARTH SO IT TAKES LESS TIME TO ORBIT
THE SUN. IN FACT VENUS TAKES ONLY 224.7
DAYS TO ORBIT THE SUN.

5. EARTH
THE DURATION TAKEN BY THE EARTH TO
ORBIT AROUND THE SUN IS EXACTLY 365
AND A QUARTER DAYS. NORMALLY THE
EXTRA IS THE REASON THAT WE END UP
WITH A LEAP YEAR EVERY FOUR YEARS
WHERE THERE ARE 366 DAYS IN A YEAR.

6. MARS
MARS TAKES 686.971 EARTH DAYS TO ORBIT
THE SUN THAT MEANS THAT ONE MARTIAN
YEAR IS EQUAL TO 1.88 EARTH DAYS.

7. JUPITER
JUPITER ORBITS THE SUN EVERY 11.86
EARTH YEARS. THE LONGER ORBITAL
PERIOD FOR JUPITER IS BECAUSE IT ORBITS
AT AN AVERAGE SPEED OF 778 MILLION KM.

8. saturn
SATURN ORBITS THE SUN FURTHER AWAY
FROM EARTH AND BECAUSE OF THIS THE
ORBIT OF SATURN TAKES MUCH LONGER IT
TAKES MORE THAN THE ORBIT OF EARTH.

9. URANUS
URANUS ORBITS THE SUN MUCH FURTHER
THAN EARTH , AND SO IT TAKES MUCH
LONGER TO ORBIT THE SUN. URANUS
TAKES 84.3 YEARS TO COMPLETE ITS ORBIT
AROUND THE SUN.

10. NEPTUNE
NEPTUNE ORBITS THE SUN MUCH FURTHER
THAN EARTH SO ITS ORBIT TAKES MUCH
LONGER . IN FACT NEPTUNE TAKES 164.79
YEARS TO ORBIT THE SUN.

11. PLUTO
PLUTO IS NOW A MINOR PLANET BE IT
STILL KIND OF COUNTS AS A PLANET ...
BECAUSE PLUTO ORBITS MUCH,MUCH
FURTHER FROM THE SUN THAN EARTH IT
TAKES MUCH LONGER TO ORBIT THE SUN,
IN FACT PLUTO TAKES 248 YEARS TO ORBIT
THE SUN.

12. CONCLUSION
EACH PLANET VARIES IN HOW LONG IT
TAKES TO ORBIT THE SUN. EARTHS
DISTANCE FROM THE SUN MEANS THAT
OUR WORLD IS NOT TOO HOT OR TOO
COLD. OTHER PLANETS SUCH AS PLUTO
TAKE 164 YEARS TO ORBIT THE SUN. IF
EARTH TOOK THIS LONG TO ORBIT THE
SUN THEN OUR SEASONS WOULD LAST
ABOUT 116 YEARS EACH. THIS COULD MAKE
LIFE DIFFICULT TO SUSTAIN ON OUR
PLANET.
