Actually,It might take a few Light years.Some people say that the Earth will end in 2012.Its not true,Well nobody knows if the world will end.If you believe that the Earth will not end, then it might not end!If you would like the Earth to end just wait about 60yrs or something,because mostly some people don't want the earth to end.

Does Earth have a tilted orbit?

No. The Earth's orbit is absolutely parallel to the plane of the ecliptic. Of course, the Earth's orbit is DEFINED as the plane of the ecliptic, so this should be no surprise. All of the other planetary orbits are tilted to the plane of the ecliptic, but not by a whole lot. The Moon's orbit, for example, is tilted about 5 degrees to the ecliptic. The axis of the Earth's spin, however, IS tilted by 23.5 degrees to the plane of the ecliptic.


Geo space orbit?

It is a little strange that things in higher orbits actually travel more slowly than things in lower orbits. The Space Shuttle and the International Space Station both orbit in about 90 minutes, while the Moon - 250,000 miles away - take a whole month to orbit the earth. There is one kind of orbit that has a special name and a special purpose. A satellite that orbits at 22,300 miles high will orbit the Earth in 24 hours. You might notice that the Earth revolves around its axis in 24 hours. So a satellite at that altitude orbits the Earth at the same rate that the Earth turns, which means that the satellite is moving just as fast as the Earth does. So the satellite appears to stand still in the sky! We call this a geo-synchronous orbit. Geo, for Earth; synchronous, for "equal time". This is an especially handy orbit for things like communications satellites, which "hover" over the same spot on the equator.


How long does it take a astronaut to travel around the earth?

It depends on the given orbit, but most astronauts would be on near earth orbit vehicles like the International Space Station (ISS). This orbits the earth once every 91 minutes.


Do Pluto orbit is almost perfectly round?

No, in fact it has the most elongated and tilted orbit in the whole solar system


Is earths distance the same from the sun year round?

the scary thing is that it doesent. The weirdest thing of all, is when the northern hemisphere experiences winter, thats when the earth is closest to the sun. Luckily the earth remains well withing the ''Goldilocks Zone'' the whole orbit, or else we would all be dead. The Earths orbit of more of an oval shape than anything. The most scary fact of all is that the Earth does not orbit in the same elliptic plane. As its meeting point for a full years rotation moves slightly clockwise. Meaning that we are not completing the same orbit as the people in the Egyptian Era did.
