... The apparent path of the Sun across the sky. ... Like the planets, the Sun, too, moves around the zodiac, making one complete circuit each year. ... In one year, as the Earth completes a full circuit around the Sun (drawing above), the Earth-Sun line and its continuation past Earth sweep the entire plane. ... Since the Sun and Earth are in the plane of the ecliptic, the line is automatically in that plane too; if the moon is also on the same line, it must be in the plane of the ecliptic as well. ...

... Pluto's orbit is also highly inclined -- tilted 17 degrees to the orbital plane of the other planets. ... Ground-based observations indicate that Pluto's surface is covered with methane ice and that there is a thin atmosphere that might freeze and fall to the surface as the planet moves away from the Sun. ... This is the first image-based surface map of the solar system's most remote planet, Pluto. ... This is the first surface map of Charon, the moon of the solar system's most remote planet, Pluto....
