  • Planetary Orbits: How Long Does It Take to Orbit the Sun?
    You're asking about the orbital periods of the planets in our solar system! Here's a breakdown:

    Planet | Orbital Period (Earth Years)

    ------- | --------

    Mercury | 0.24

    Venus | 0.62

    Earth | 1

    Mars | 1.88

    Jupiter | 11.86

    Saturn | 29.46

    Uranus | 84.01

    Neptune | 164.79

    As you can see, the farther a planet is from the Sun, the longer its orbit takes. This is due to Kepler's Laws of Planetary Motion.
