| Important Note: The order of the planets given here is based on the planets' average distances from the Sun. Because Pluto's orbit is quite elliptical in shape, at times Pluto travels closer to the Sun than Neptune's orbit. This was the case from January 1979 through February 1999, when Neptune was the farthest planet from the Sun. | ||
