I'm not sure if any of these is "the strange fact", but they're all true:
- Pluto's orbit is so eccentric that it can be either nearer to or further away from the Sun than Neptune is (it spends the majority of its time further away, though, and only cuts inside Neptune's orbit for about 20 years of its approximately 250-year-long orbit).
- Pluto's orbit is "locked" to Neptune's in a 3:2 resonance (i.e. Pluto completes exactly 2 orbits for every 3 of Neptune's).
- Neptune's largest moon, Triton, is somewhat larger than Pluto, and may at one time have been a KBO like Pluto itself.
What else can I help you with?
Is there anything strange about Pluto?
Yes. Because of its orbit Neptune and Pluto switch places every 20 years.
What is the cooldest panet?
Pluto The answer is in fact Neptune because Pluto is no longer classed as a "planet." Neptune is the furthest planet away from the sun therefore the coldest. :P
Which planet lies between Pluto and Uranus?
Neptune is the planet that typically lies between Pluto and Uranus. However, during some parts of it's orbit, Pluto will be closer to the sun than Neptune is (i.e. Neptune is no longer between Uranus and Pluto; instead, Pluto is between Uranus and Neptune).In fact, as of February 11th, 1999, Pluto passed Neptune, thereby making Neptune the furthest planet from the Sun. Neptune will continue to be the further than Pluto until April 5th, 2231.
Why Pluto do not revolve around the Neptune?
because neptune is not a star and Pluto is not a moon of neptune
Which was discovered first neptune or pluto?
Neptune was discovered before Pluto.
Is Pluto in an orbital resonance with another planet?
Yes, with the planet Neptune. For every three solar revolutions (orbits) that Neptune makes, Pluto makes two (called the 3:2 resonance). Because of Pluto's eccentric orbit, and this resonance, the two planets can never collide. In fact, Pluto is sometimes closer to Uranus than to Neptune.
Is Neptune located outside the asteroid or inside?
Neptune is located beyond the asteroid belt as are all the gas giants. In fact, as of Pluto's demotion, Neptune is the farthest planet from the sun.
How is neptune and Pluto the same discovery?
Neptune and Pluto are not the same discovery at all.
What planet is closest to Pluto neptune or uranus?
Neptune is the planet closest to Pluto
Is neptune located inside or outside asteroid belt?
Neptune is located beyond the asteroid belt as are all the gas giants. In fact, as of Pluto's demotion, Neptune is the farthest planet from the sun.
How do you say 'Pluto is right of Neptune' in french?
Pluton est à la droite de Neptune (Pluto is right TO Neptune), or Pluton est près de Neptune (Pluto is right next to Neptune)
How many moons does Neptune have than Pluto?
I do not understand your question, but I can tell you that Neptune has 13 moons and Pluto has 3.
