45. Is there a place in space where we would be able to see all of the planets? (A K2S Question)

You can see each planet from anywhere in the solar system, unless that planet is on the other side of the Sun. Uranus, Neptune and Pluto require a telescope. Technically, Uranus can be seen without a telescope if you have good eyesight and you are in a very dark area.
