Planets in the solar system except Pluto orbit the sun along the ecliptic. The ecliptic is an imaginary line like the equator round the Earth. The rings of Saturn give you a good analogy. Pluto is probably a captured asteroid and not part of the original solar system. It's orbit dips above and below the ecliptic like the moon around the Earth

Does the sun follow the same path in the sky in each season?

Yes, the Sun appears to follows a path round the sky called the ecliptic, as the Earth moves round its yearly orbit.


What causes the stars to move slowly across the sky in a zig zag path?

To a stationary observer they go across the sky slowly and steadily in nice curves, which are technically small circles on the celestial sphere.


What is the planet move across the sky around the sun through a certain band of constellations are called?

The band of constellations through which planets move across the sky around the Sun is called the "Zodiac." This region includes twelve constellations, such as Aries, Taurus, and Gemini, which the Sun, Moon, and planets appear to travel through over the course of a year. The path taken by these celestial bodies within this band is known as the ecliptic.


How does the daily path of the sun across the sky change with the season?

The Sun's path in the sky will appear to change as a year passes. This path resembles a figure eight. The path is curved due to Earth's tilted axis. The path is long because the Earth makes an oblong orbit around the Sun. The path is technically called a Analemma. The movement of the sun isn't what causes the change of seasons on earth. It is the movement of the earth around the sun and the fact that the axis of rotation of the earth is not perpendicular to the plane of solar rotation that gives rise to the changes we see as the seasons.

What do you call into the imaginary path of the planets?

The imaginary path of the planets in the solar system is called the ecliptic. This is the apparent path that the Sun appears to take across the sky as seen from Earth. The planets in our solar system all roughly follow this same path as they orbit the Sun.


Do the stars and the and sun move across the sky?

They appear to move across the sky because of the position of the viewer on a rotating planet with a moving field of view.


Why do stars and sun move across your sky?

Because of the rotation of the planet and the view.

Where on the celestial Sphere would you look for the planets?

You can find planets on the celestial sphere along the ecliptic, which is the apparent path that the Sun takes across the sky throughout the year. The planets in our solar system generally follow this same path, although they may deviate slightly due to their individual orbits.
