It swings past Pluto. So Neptune is the ninth planet from the sun.
Neptune
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.
every 248 years. it lasts for about 20 years, and it last ended in 1999.
for a 20 earth year period. when Pluto gets closer to the sun than Neptune every 248 earth years.
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.
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.
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".
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.
Neptune takes 248 Earth years to complete one orbit around the Sun. It is the eighth planet from the Sun in our solar system.
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.
It takes Uranus 84.01 earth years. Neptune 164.80. And Pluto 248.00 years.
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.
