How many earth days does it take Pluto to orbit around the sun?
A full rotation of Pluto takes 6 Earth days, 9 hours, and some minutes; so the day part should be about half that amount (3 days and 5 hours), at least on average. Pluto has a very large tilt of its axis, similar to Uranus. So the details of when it's daylight on Pluto are complicated and depend on where Pluto is in its orbit around the Sun. Of course, Pluto is so far from the Sun that the term "daylight" is a bit misleading anyway.
