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.

That description fits the planet Neptune in our solar system. Neptune is usually the 8th planet from the sun, but due to its orbital path and the orbit of Pluto, every 248 years it moves inside Pluto's orbit for a period of around 20 years before returning to its usual position.


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.


Does Jupiter change its place from the sun every 248 years compared to the other planets?

No, Jupiter does not change its place relative to the Sun every 248 years compared to other planets. Jupiter orbits the Sun in about 11.9 years, along with the other planets in our solar system. The concept of a 248-year cycle likely refers to the time it takes for Jupiter to return to the same position in the sky as seen from Earth, known as a Jupiter "return" or "synodic period".

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.
