Each planet is in its own orbit and obey's Kepler's laws of planetary motion. Newton later discovered that the Sun's gravity is what makes the planets move in their orbits in the way they do.
Pluto was discovered in 1930. Pluto takes 248 Earth years to orbit the Sun. So yes, in 2178 it will be in the same place in its orbit and will have completed one revolution around the Sun (its year) since it was discovered.
In its orbit around the Sun, the Earth moves at about 30 km/sec.
Every comet has its own orbit and its own timing in terms of how long it takes to orbit the sun.
All planets orbit the sun counter-clockwise, when viewing from above the north pole of the sun.
All the planets in our solar system orbit our sun. Recently other suns, far out in Space, have been discovered to have their own planets.
The earth moves around the sun in a elliptical orbit.
orbit!
All of them do.

Pluto's orbit is not circular. It is elliptical (egg-shaped). This means that Pluto's distance from the sun changes as it moves along its orbit. As it moves to the point where it is closest to the sun, it heats up. And as it moves toward the point where it is farthest from the sun, it cools down.
Kepler discovered that the planets orbit the sun in oval shaped paths called ellipses.
The Earth moves round the Sun in a path called an orbit. All the planets go round the Sun in their own orbits, that way they do not collide. For the Earth, one whole circle round the Sun takes exactly one year.
Each planet moves in a different orbit, at a different average distance from the sun, and at a different speed.
A single Earth orbit is one time the Earth moves around the sun.
The Moon orbits the Sun. The gravitation of the Earth will provide slight disturbances to the Moon's orbit around the Sun, but mainly, the Moon moves around the Sun.The Moon orbits the Sun.

The name of the path the earth takes around the sun is known as the orbit. The earth takes slightly over 365 to complete its revolution round the sun.
