The possible orbital period of Pluto was calculated prior to its discovery. Between 1906 and 1930, Percival Lowell, William Pickering, and Clyde Tombaugh conducted an extensive search for 'the ninth planet' that disrupted Neptune's orbit. After confirmation of photographs, they calculated Pluto's revolution period and found historical images of Pluto that had previously been overlooked.
It doesn't. Charon is much too far away to be influenced by Earth's gravity. Charon is gravitationally bound to Pluto, but technically does not orbit it. Because Charon is fairly massive compared to Pluto the two object orbit around their common center of mass, which lies outside of Pluto.
It Take's Pluto 243 Earth Day's, To Orbit The Sun? Pluto is farther away from the sun than Earth, therefore, since it has a longer way to go to completely orbit the Sun, there is no way it can take only 243 days
It takes Pluto approximately 248 Earth years to orbit the Sun once.
0.00403087 times in one year.248 earth years.Pluto revolves around the sun all the time. Even without ever stopping, it takes248 years to complete one revolution. Since its discovery in 1930, Pluto has madeless than 1/3 of a complete orbit around the sun.
According to Wikipedia, on Pluto a "...year lasts 90,613.305 Earth days, 248.09 Earth years or 14,164.4 Pluto solar days." One planetary year is the length of time it takes that planet to travel from one place all the way around the sun and return to the same place.
No answer Pluto orbits the Sun Pluto does not orbit the Earth

248.09 Earth years for Pluto to orbit the Sun
It takes Pluto 248 Earth years to orbit the sun. (1 Pluto year = 248 Earth years)
The real answer is that PLuto is not a planet and doenst real orbit around something so its not going to orbit the sun in about 25000000000 years. YOU have to know this.

No, the Hubble Telescope stays in orbit around the Earth.
No. Pluto orbits the sun.
No, it takes 248 EARTH years.

If Pluto's orbit were on the same plane as Earth's orbit, if Earth were directly between the sun and Pluto, if Earth were at its aphelion (the point in its orbit where it's farthest from the sun), and if Pluto were at its perihelion (the point in its orbit closest to the sun), on the scale where the diameter of Earth is 5 mm, the distance from Earth to Pluto is about 1.681 km (a little over a mile).
