Graph

  • Orbits
    • Pluto in red
    • Neptune in blue
  • Orbits plotted in brighter colours above the ecliptic and darker below.
  • Major axis drawn showing perihelia (q) and aphelia (Q).
    • Colours and albedos illustrated
    • For the closest approach, sphere size is inversely proportional to the distance to facilitate correlation.
