While Pluto was discovered in 1930 and was considered fully a planet for 76 years, and it takes 248 years for it to complete one revolution, it did not complete one full revolution in the time those on Earth have known of it. But, Pluto has existed for about four and a half billion years, and in that time can be expected to have completed 18,145,161.3 orbits of Sol.

Has Pluto completed a complete trip around the sun as a planet?

We don't know that for sure because it was only discovered in 1930, but it has a reasonably stable orbit of 248 years. It has probably been doing that for a billion years. I think the answer is: No. Pluto has not been classed as a planet since 2006. It was discovered in 1930. So, it only orbited "as a planet" for about 76 years. That's a lot less than it's orbital period of 248 years. It's a bit of a "trick question", but I think that's the required answer.


When is Pluto going to complete its orbit for the first time since its discovery?

Orbits don't have a beginning or end, so it can't really finish. It's like an endless loop that keeps going around and around. It takes 247.92 years to make one trip around that loop.

How many months long is a year on Pluto?

First, we have to figure out what a "year on Pluto" means. On earth, we call a "year" the time it takes our planet to revolve one complete trip around the sun. It takes Pluto 248 of those to make one trip around the sun. Next, we have to tackle the tougher problem of what a "month" means. On earth, we used to call it a "month" every time the moon went through a complete cycle of phases. That's about 29.5 of our days. We don't count months that way any more, but they're still close. If you want to count months the same way on Pluto, then you run into two serious problems right away. 1). Pluto has two moons, and they take different lengths of time to revolve around the planet, so which one are you going to use to count months ? 2). We don't know the orbital period of either one. So let's use earth months instead. One year on Pluto is 2,976 earth-months long.


When a planet completes one trip around the sun?

That is that planet's "year", or its orbital period.
