Trivia: Where is Mars in order from the sun?
1st
3rd
4th
10th
Correct Answer: 4th
So why is this answer correct? : The order of the planets from the sun is Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and finally the dwarf planet Pluto. Despite its relative closeness as the fourth planet from the Sun, Mars is about 142 million miles from the sun. Additionally, Mars’ atmosphere is incredibly thin, meaning that much of the Sun’s heat easily escapes, and the planet can reach a staggering -225 degrees Fahrenheit.
