Pluto's orbit is quite unusual. It takes 248 Earth years for Pluto to complete one orbit around the Sun. Its orbit is also more oval-shaped, or elliptical, than those of the 8 major planets. That means that sometimes Pluto is a lot nearer to the Sun than at other times, At times Pluto's orbit brings it closer to the Sun than Neptune.

∙ 13y agoIt has a more eccentric orbit than the eight major planets. The eight major planets orbit the sun in approximately the same plane, and have fairly uniform orbits - more or less staying the same distance from the sun in more circular orbits. Pluto's orbital plane is at a tilt, it's distance from the sun also varies a lot more during one orbit.

∙ 6y agoall planets and dwarf planets have an elliptical or a flat oval orbit
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoYes, it's quite eccentric. It's distance from the sun varies by quite a bit, while it does not fit to the ecliptic plane as well as the eight major planets.

Is Pluto an orbit?
Answer: No, Pluto is not an orbit. Pluto is in an orbit: a 2:3 resonance orbit with Neptune.No, Pluto is a dwarf planet.
Part of Pluto's orbit is inside the orbit of?
Pluto's unusual orbit causes it to travel inside Neptune's orbit.
Does Pluto overlap Neptune?
Actually, yes it does. Pluto, because of its lopsided orbit, crosses paths and goes in front of Neptune once every 288 years. It probably is once every 288 years because Pluto orbits the Sun once after 248 years.
What planet does Pluto orbit?
Pluto doesn't orbit any planets, it orbits the sun. But if you mean what planet does Pluto share a orbit with is Neptune. Pluto sometimes is closer to the sun than Neptune because it cuts into Neptune's orbit.
What is the planet with an orbit that intersects the orbit of the dwarf planet Pluto?
The planet Neptune crosses the orbit of Pluto in an elliptic orbit
How is Pluto's orbit different from other planets orbits?
Pluto's orbit is longer and slower than other planets.
Why is Pluto's orbit different?
oval range
Is Pluto an orbit?
Answer: No, Pluto is not an orbit. Pluto is in an orbit: a 2:3 resonance orbit with Neptune.No, Pluto is a dwarf planet.
What different about Pluto's orbit that the orbit in our other planet's solar system?
its orbit crosses with another plant
What planets orbit intersects with Pluto?
Pluto's orbit passes inside the orbit of Neptune.
How is Pluto not like the 4 inner planets?
Pluto is different from the inner planets in that it has not cleared it's orbit from asteroids.
Pluto's orbit around the Sun is very different than those of other planets. How is it different?
The minor planet Pluto has an orbit which is inclined to the plane of the ecliptic. It is also a highly eccentric ellipse, causing it sometimes to pass inside the orbit of Neptune.
Why does pluto take so long to orbit the earth?
No answer Pluto orbits the Sun Pluto does not orbit the Earth
Pluto's orbit sometimes takes it inside the orbit of?
Pluto's orbit sometimes carries inside the orbit of Neptune. One time, Pluto was stuck in Neptune's orbit for around 20 years.
Does Pluto's orbit overlaps the orbit of the asteroid Ceres?
Pluto's orbit DOES NOT overlap the orbit of the asteroid Ceres. But it does overlap the orbit of the planet neptune
Part of Pluto's orbit is inside the orbit of?
Pluto's unusual orbit causes it to travel inside Neptune's orbit.
Does Pluto overlap Neptune?
Actually, yes it does. Pluto, because of its lopsided orbit, crosses paths and goes in front of Neptune once every 288 years. It probably is once every 288 years because Pluto orbits the Sun once after 248 years.
