Pluto's orbit is more elliptical than the major planets' orbits, and every time it goes round it spends some years inside Neptune's orbit.

No. Planets orbit suns, while moons orbit planets. Planets do not orbit planets.


Why does Pluto take so long to orbit the Sun?

Plutos Orbits length is unusually longer than other planets orbits.But its width is shorter than Neptunes orbit. So at one point in Plutos orbit it is closer to the sun than Neptune. Its estimated time to orbit is around 250 years


How many moons do the suns have?

The Sun has no moons. Moons orbit Planets > Planets orbit the Sun.

What is unique about Plutos orbit around the sun?

All of the 8 planets that orbit the Sun are in the same general plane. That is that they are all flat. Pluto's orbit is not flat like the rest of the planets. It is like it got caught while passing by. Some think that it is a burned out comet. It is a dwarf planet, no longer considered to be a real planet.


What are the strange things about the orbit of Pluto?

Pluto has an eccentric and inclined orbit compared to the planets in our solar system. It is also known to cross Neptune's orbit at times, making it a "dwarf planet" rather than a full-fledged planet. Additionally, Pluto's orbit is not perfectly circular like most planets, leading to variations in its distance from the Sun over time.


Do the stars orbit the planets or do planets orbit stars?

Moons orbit planets. Planets orbit stars. Some stars orbit other stars, or orbit their mutual center of gravity. Stars orbit the center of the galaxy. Galaxies may orbit the center of the "galactic group".
