Viewing Sun from Different planets?

My favorite of the free ones is Celestia.\n\nhttp://www.shatters.net/celestia/\n\nyou can fly to any star and then center the view on our sun, Sol.  By turning on constellation boundaries, you see what constellation it is in--and how badly mangled the constellations become when you go far away!  It has some extra solar planets modeled too (generic planets, since we don't know what they really look like).\n\nSo if you go to this site and download and run Celestia, you can do the following:\n\nclick Navigation at the top, then goto object.  Type Arcturus in the "Object" field and click "goto".  The way I have it set up, my screen is now all white (I'm TOO close to arcturus!).  I rotate my scroll wheel down to move back some to see the star better.  (HOME and END move forward and back if you have no scroll wheel).  Then, I click Navigation, then Select Sol to select our sun.  Then hit Navigation and Center Selection, and there's a teeny yellow dot in the center of the screen--that is the sun. It appears to be in the constellation Cetus (a really mangled barely-recognizable Cetus).

Go check out our Sun....

Google Earth is great, but if you want what it looks like at this moment, look at the weather channel at http://www.weather.com\n\nThey have current satelite views.

Yes, you can- but it takes patience and a clear sky or planning.  A very interesting form of sattelite watching are "Flares" from the Iridium satellite fleet.  These satellites have mirrors which occasionally reflect the sun's light to earth. \nhttp://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap980402.html\nTo find out when are where to catch one of these flares, go to this site:\nhttp://www.heavens-above.com/\n\nFor a more traditional satellite viewing experience, try starting out looking for the international space station.  NASA has a good site that lets you know when and where to look for it:\nhttp://spaceflight.nasa.gov/realdata/sightings/

Hi! Venus in the sky is an amazing sight! Being an inner planet of the solar system, Venus is only visible for a few minutes either just before sunrise or just after sunset.\n\nThe best time to view the planet is before sunrise. You will be able to observe Venus in the east. Check your local newspaper for the timings of the sunrise. Preferably, go to a place at high elevation so that Venus is not obscured by any high buildings there may be.\n\nHope you have a good sighting of the morning star soon!

Its very simple,\nFirst take a torch for representing the sun and place it on a stand(or just hold it) horizontally.Then bring a globe and adjust the torch such that the light of it falls on the globe.Next, take a small ball(a tennis or smaller than that) for moon, a white one and suspend it in air by a thread(which you can either hold or attach it to something).Place the ball(moon) between the torch and the globe to display solar eclipse or place it behind the globe to display lunar eclipse and EUREKA! its done\n\ntips-\nthis experiment works best in darkness

it depends on your place in space. are you in a straight line with a planet and sun,  then there is night and vice versa

yes, search yahoo.\nHere's a good one\nhttp://www.solarviews.com/cap/sun/sundiag.htm i think...

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

Maybe the program 'Cartes du Ciel' can help you. You can download it for free in English at:\n\nhttp://www.stargazing.net/astropc/index.html

yes there is. Solaris is the North Star.  As you may realise by the name if you can spot it it will point you towards the north direction so long as you are in the northern hemisphere.  It is the only star in the sky that does not appear to move as observed from planet earth.

No, as satellites and probes have been sent around the solar system, even behind the sun. There is no evidence of another planet on the other side of the sun. \n\nIn a hypothetical world where there is a planet on the other side of the sun, the gravity pull from the planet will distort the orbits of the closer planets i.e Mars and Venus. This distortion can be extrapolated by astronomists to determine the size and speed of the planet. However the existing 9 planets have all orbits accounted for.

Venus, or jupiter. Find a fixed star close to the planet in question. If it moves relative to that star the next day, then it is Venus. If it takes a few days to notice movement, then it is jupiter. The planets closer to the sun will move faster to relative objects in the sky, those farther out will move slower....KECK
