      Most of them also rotate in an eastward direction, but three of them (Venus, Uranus and Pluto) rotate to the west. As a result, we say that they have a retrograde rotation. This is indicated, in discussion the rotation period of a planet, either by placing an "R" after the period, or a minus sign in front of it.

      Over the last 10 years, a large number of iceballs have been found in the outer solar system out beyond Pluto. These objects are collectively known as the Kuiper Belt. An amateur astronomer suggests using the radar ranging technique to learn the rotation periods of Kuiper Belt Objects.

      1.Both Pluto and Eris are smaller than any of the terrestrial planets. 2. Both Pluto and Eris travel in more elliptical orbits than any of the terrestrial or jovian planets. 3.Both Pluto and Eris are less massive than any of the terrestrial or jovian planets. They have not cleared it's orbit (not a dominant gravitational influence)

      Answer: Several possibilities: (a) Mercury and Pluto have large orbital eccentricities and inclinations. (b) The rotational axes of Uranus and Pluto are substantially tilted. (c) Venus rotates backward, that is, clockwise. (d) Unlike other terrestrial planets, Earth has a large Moon. (e) Pluto has a moon that is almost as large as itself.

      Because Pluto is an astounding 3,670,050,000 miles from the sun, it is hard to get close enough to get a good picture. This picture was taken by the Hubble Telescope (with some Earth-based color information added). We’re going to get a better look at Pluto with the New Horizons spacecraft, which will pass Pluto in 2015.

      Pluto is smaller than our moon and is the only dwarf planet that has never been visited by one of our spacecraft or probes. Pluto has an unusually elliptical orbit. At its closest, it is about 4.4 billion kilometers (2.7 billion miles) from the sun, but it travels as far as 7.5 billion kilometers (4.7 billion miles) from the sun.

      Pluto is a special case in that its orbit is the most highly inclined (18 degrees) of all the planets. Because of this, for parts of its orbit Pluto is closer to the sun than is Neptune. The axis of rotation for most of the planets is nearly perpendicular. The exceptions are Uranus and Pluto, which are tipped on their side.

      The dwarf planet Pluto takes much longer to revolve around the Sun than do other planets. This is because Pluto. is farther from the Sun than other planets. is smaller than other planets. has fewer satellites than other planets. has a very slow rotation as compared to other planets.

      Pluto is approximately 3.6 billion miles from the Sun (that’s 5.4 hours travel time at the speed of light!). At that distance Pluto is pretty darn cold at –390 degrees Fahrenheit (F). For comparison dry ice is -109 degrees F and liquid nitrogen is -321 degrees F. Pluto’s dim light cannot be seen with the human eye.

      Length of rotation (how long 1 day on this planet)? _____6 Days and 9 Hours_____ ... Does it have an atmosphere? Yes. Once every 248 Earth years, Pluto swings_____ inside the orbit of Neptune. It stays there for twenty years. During those twenty years, Pluto is closer to the Sun than Neptune. While it is closer to the Sun, Pluto has an atmosphere.
