Can someone give me the positions of intersection of two planetary orbits for all planets?Thanks!?

Yes, the planets go through phases. Celestial phases are basically light hitting different hemispheres at different times.

dr_islam_safwat is exactly correct, as far as he goes. The problem is that Kepler's 3rd law does not tell you how far Neptune is from the Sun, it only tells you how much farther from the Sun it is than the Earth. The real trick to to find out how far the Earth is from the Sun. Actually, knowing the absolute between any two planets would be enough information, because then Kepler's 3rd law could then be used to find all the other absolute distances from the ratios.

Venus.\n\nThe order of the planets is... Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto (although on occasions Pluto is closer then Neptune).\n\nYou can remember the sequence using this mnemonic.. My Very Easy Method: Just Set Up Nine Planets.

In their current orbits, Pluto and Neptune will never collide, since Pluto is in a 3-to-2 resonance with Neptune.  That means that for every two orbits of Pluto, Neptune executes three orbits; thus, they’re never close to one another in their trips around the Sun (instead, Neptune is always 90 degrees ahead of or behind Pluto when Pluto is closest to the Sun).  Even though the orbits of Neptune and Pluto seem to overlap, they will never actually collide.\n\nMany of the newly-discovered objects (hundreds of ’em now) out near Pluto have these kinds of resonances.  If they didn’t, they’d be more likely to collide with Neptune, and Neptune is probably responsible for shepherding them into these stable configurations.\n\n\nRyan Wyatt\nRose Center for Earth & Space\nNew York, New York

A continuing effort to identify even near Earth asteroids which are relatively easy to track and have a greater possibility of collision is still incomplete, with only a fraction of their orbits plotted. Since the orbital periods of comets and other Oort cloud entities are in the tens, hundreds, or even thousands of years, many of these objects have never been seen in recorded history, much less their orbits calculated and possibility of collision with Earth evaluated. With this in mind, an event such as this might be possible at any point in the future, although since objects from the outer solar system tend to be rather reflective, chances are that they would be spotted and we would have some advance warning of a likely intersection with Earth orbit presenting a cause for concern. That said, the chance of it happening in any particular year is extremely remote, the likelihood of it happening sometime in the next several million years greater.

You can go to http://astrogeology.usgs.gov/SolarSystem/ , and get the data by clicking on the names of the planets one by one.

In a word - yes\n\nAll the planets affect each other, although not always in major ways. The solar system can be considered as a two body system (the sun and Jupiter) with perturbations (all the other planets).\n\nFor an example of this, look at the precession of the perehelion of Mercury. General Relativity accounts for a tiny amount of that, but the rest is from the effects of the other bodies in the solar system.

I've been studying this stuff recently, and I'm pretty sure this is how it goes:\n\nK is now (-2,1) and D is now (-3,-2).\n\nFor future reference on determining rotations, simply turn the graph counter-clockwise one time for 90 degrees, upside down for 180 degrees, and for 270 degrees, just turn the graph clockwise once to see what the new cooridnates are.

The planets are actually trying to move in a straight line at a high speed due to the intertia from some force long ago.  When two objects are moving by each other, their gravity interacts and pulls them toward each other, bending the path that would otherwise be a straight line.  If they are too massive and too close, the gravity pulls them so much that they collide.  If things are balanced just right, the path is bent into a complete ellipse.  It's an ellipse instead of a circle because the sun is actually also being pulled a tiny bit toward the earth, as well.\n\nYou could consider gravity to be sort of a "perpendicular inertia", and the planets would revolve around the sun FOREVER if there were no other forces involved.

Greetings! \n\nI have no doubt you actually know the best places to find information Astronomy, I'll preach to the choir and give you some links. And I always check out University sites before anything else.\n\nPersonally I enjoy 'vintage' astronomy like...Kepler's Laws, Centripetal and Centrifugal Force, Elipses, Mean and True Place Of The Earth Or A Planet at Perihelion and at Aphelion ..... \n\nThanks for taking me out of my comfort zone today!  (And don't forget the last link....I read that it's pretty good!)

Discovery of the 10th planet!  Recent discovery.  Not much info. yet so no one can say if you are wrong on any point!
