   • Rotation and revolution. Years on other planets are measured using Earth’s tropical year, which lasts about 365 solar days; one solar day is the time it takes our planet to spin, or rotate, once fully on its axis, as measured by the Sun’s position over a given point.
   • Laws of motion. Kepler’s third law of motion explains that the time it takes a planet to complete a revolution is related to its distance from our star.
   • Mercury. Mercury spins on its axis very slowly and completes one rotation every 59 Earth days. However, its orbit around the Sun is speedy compared to other planets.
   • Venus. The hottest planet in the solar system takes about 225 Earth days to complete one rotation around the Sun. Venus spins very slowly and appears to rotate retrograde, or in a clockwise direction – opposite from most planets, which rotate counterclockwise, or prograde, in the same direction as they move through their orbits.

   Oct 24, 2024 · It takes Venus 225 days to orbit the sun, which isn’t too much shorter than Earth’s 365 days. Mars is the outermost of the rocky planets, and so it takes the longest amount of time to orbit the sun in the inner solar system.

   Aug 20, 2024 · Planet Venus spins so slowly on its axis that one day on the planet lasts nearly 243 Earth days. Because it's closer to the Sun than Earth is, the planet has a 225-day year. So, the day is actually longer than a year, which means that Venus residents would only get to see two sunrises per year.

   How long is a day on Mars?

   • At 24 hours and 37 minutes, the Mars day length is very similar to Earth's, which is one of the reasons that Mars is often thought of as something of a twin to Earth. Because Mars is farther than Earth from the Sun, however, its year is longer than Earth's at 687 Earth days. How long is a day on Jupiter?

   How long does it take Venus to travel around the Sun?

   • Venus: It takes 224.7 earth days for Venus to travel once around the sun. If you are 15 years old on Earth, this would make you 24 years old in Venus years. 3. Earth: One year on planet Earth, or one orbit around the sun, takes 365.26 days. 4. Mars: Planet Mars goes around the sun once every 686.98 earth days.

   How long is a day on a planet?

   • If it turns on its axis, it has a "day and night" cycle. The following table depicts how long a day is on each planet in the solar system. The planet Mercury takes 58.6 Earth days to spin once on its axis. That may seem long, but think about this: its year is only 88 Earth days long! That's because it orbits very close to the Sun.

   Which planet has the longest year?

   • Dwarf planet Pluto has the longest year of all the known planets (so far), at 248 years. Its day is a lot shorter, but still longer than Earth's, at six Earth days and 9.5 hours. Pluto is tipped over on its side at an angle of 122 degrees with respect to the Sun.
