Solar system orbits
Planetary orbits. Computer illustration of the orbits of some of the planets of the solar system. The Sun is at centre. The orbit of Pluto (outermost) is highly elliptical and is inclined compared to the orbits of the inner planets. The orbits of Mars, Earth, Venus and Mercury, the planets nearest the Sun, are all within the inner circle at this scale. Plutos orbit overlaps with that of Neptune, meaning that Neptune is the furthest planet from the Sun at times. Inside Neptunes orbit, in order of their decreasing distance from the Sun, are the orbits of Uranus, Saturn and Jupiter

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate orbits of various planets in our solar system. With the Sun positioned at the center, this computer-generated illustration beautifully depicts the paths followed by some of our neighboring celestial bodies. The elliptical and inclined orbit of Pluto, located on the outermost edge, stands out prominently against the inner planets. At this scale, we can observe that Mars, Earth, Venus, and Mercury all reside within a compact inner circle closest to the Sun. However, it is fascinating to note that Pluto's orbit overlaps with Neptune's path at certain points in time. Consequently, Neptune becomes temporarily positioned as the farthest planet from our life-giving star. Moving inward from Neptune's orbit are three more gas giants: Uranus, Saturn, and Jupiter. These mighty planets follow their own distinct trajectories around the Sun while contributing to the mesmerizing dance of planetary motion. This artwork not only serves as a visual delight but also offers valuable insights into cosmology and astronomy. It reminds us of humanity's ongoing quest for knowledge about our place in space and inspires awe for these celestial wonders that grace our night sky.
