How Fast Do Planets Move?

Answer Question

3 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    The earth travels around the sun in an elliptical orbit. I'm pretty sure that its average distance from the center of the solar system is about 93 million miles? If that is true, the earth would travel about 584 miles on its journey around the sun. That is about 1.6 million miles per day, or 67 thousand miles per hour. This is a very rough estimate, but it's pretty fast anyway!

        Well we know that the earth take about 25 hours to go ones around the sun. So the father away the planet is the longer it takes for the planet to move once around the sun.
