The planets in our Solar System are in constant motion in their orbits as they spin on their axis

All planets revolve around the Sun, but the time they take to complete one orbit differs

And depending on the time taken, your age on different planet will vary. Let's understand why

The planets travel around the Sun at different speeds, hence each has different time for orbital path

Our Earth completes the orbit around Sun in 365 days - the number of days in our year

Some complete the same orbital path in hundreds of days during their year, others, just a few

For example, Mercury takes 88 days to revolve around the Sun, while Venus takes 225

Mars revolves around the Sun in 687 days and Jupiter takes 12 Earth years to do the same

Accordingly, a 21-year-old (by Earth age) will be almost 88 years old on Mercury and 34 on Venus

On Jupiter, you would be mere one-year-old infant while on Pluto, you are just about to be born
