Does your age change when you go to other planets?
Our age on Earth is based on ‘Earth years’. It is the number of times the Earth has orbited the Sun since the day we were born. If we were to live on another planet in the Solar System our age would be different because each planet takes a different amount of time to orbit the Sun.
How old would I be if I lived on Mars?
A year on Mars is longer than a year on Earth—almost twice as long at 687 days. This is roughly 1.88 times the length of a year on Earth, so to calculate your age on Mars we simply have to divide your Earth age by 1.88.
How old would I be if I lived on Pluto?
248.59 years
The Days (And Years) Of Our Lives
| Planet | Rotation Period | Revolution Period |
|---|---|---|
| Saturn | 0.45 days | 29.46 years |
| Uranus | 0.72 days | 84.01 years |
| Neptune | 0.67 days | 164.79 years |
| Pluto | 6.39 days | 248.59 years |
How do you calculate your Saturn age?
A year on Saturn is longer than a year on Earth—29½ years (10,759 Earth days). This is roughly 29.46 times the length of a year on Earth, so to calculate your age on Saturn we have to divide your age in Earth years by 29.46.
How old would a 12 year old be on Jupiter?
To find your age on the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto), divide your age in Earth years by the approximate length of the planet’s year in Earth years. This is your “new” age. For example, a 20 year old on Earth would only be 1.7 years old on Jupiter because 20 / 12 = 1.7.
How old is Uranus?
4.503 billion years
Uranus/Age
Uranus was formed at the same time as the rest of the Solar System, from a large spinning disk of gas and dust. Astronomers think that all this happened about 4.6 billion years ago! So Uranus is about 4.6 billion years old.

How old would I be in Jupiter years?

How is Uranus blue?
The blue-green color results from the absorption of red light by methane gas in Uranus’ deep, cold and remarkably clear atmosphere. In fact, the limb is dark and uniform in color around the planet.
Why does each planet have a different year?
The planets revolve around the sun in different amounts of time, so a “year” on each planet is a different amount of time. The farther a planet is from the sun, the longer its year.
Why do two planets orbit around each other?
First of all, plant is one which possesses spherical shape because of its own gravity, so there may be many example that two planets orbit each other just like our earth and moon. But there is one more thing that no any planet will orbiting to other but they orbiting about center of mass.
Why are the ages of the planets in the boxes different?
The axis rotation speed across the planets varies and this is why the ages in the boxes above are different. The speed at which a planet rotates on its axis is determined by a number of complex factors, including how fast the original matter was “spinning” when the planets were formed 4.5 billion years ago.
How long does it take for the planets to rotate?
Planet: Rotation Period: Revolution Period: Mercury: 58.6 days: 87.97 days: Venus: 243 days: 224.7 days: Earth: 0.99 days: 365.26 days: Mars: 1.03 days: 1.88 years: Jupiter: 0.41 days: 11.86 years: Saturn: 0.45 days: 29.46 years: Uranus: 0.72 days: 84.01 years: Neptune: 0.67 days: 164.79 years: Pluto: 6.39 days: 248.59 years
