What planet becomes the farthest from the sun every 248 years?
Neptune
Which planet orbits crosses Pluto's every 248 years?
Pluto's orbit is 248 years. Pluto has an elliptical orbit that takes it closer to the Sun than Neptune, for 20 years, out of its 248 year orbit of the Sun. So every 228 years, Pluto's orbit crosses Neptune's orbit. This last happened between 1979 and 1999.
Does Jupiter change its place from the sun every 248 years compared to the other planets?
in the solar system what happens every 248 years
How many years does it take for neptune and Pluto to switch places?
every 248 years. it lasts for about 20 years, and it last ended in 1999.
How long was Pluto in front of Neptune?
for a 20 earth year period. when Pluto gets closer to the sun than Neptune every 248 earth years.
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.
Is Pluto sometimes closer to the Sun than Neptune?
Yes, Pluto is closer to the Sun than Neptune for a ~20 year period every 228 years. The last time it was closer to the Sun than Neptune was 1979. This happens because Pluto has an eccentric orbit that is also highly inclined, Pluto's size\mass is not directly involved in this process in any way.
What is the thing that passes into Neptune's orbit?
Pluto takes about 248 years to orbit the sun and for about 20 years of that, it passes inside Neptune's orbit. This last happened between 1979 and 1999.
How long it takes to obrit the Pluto?
It takes pluto 248 years to orbit the sun but sometimes it depends on neptune because they swap places so if pluto was in neptune place it would then take 220 years or something like that.
Does Pluto orbit around the sun every 2.5 earth years?
No, it takes 248 EARTH years.
How long does it take for Pluto to orbit around the sun?
Technically Pluto will never be in the eighth planet position again because it is no longer classified as a planet. However, Pluto is closer to the Sun than Neptune starting every 228 years. The duration of this position lasts roughly 20 years.
When will Pluto make one revolution around the sun?
Every 248 earth-years.
