Who needs 7% gravity on Earth when you can have 8% gravity. Pluto's orbit is inclined, or tilted, 17.1 degrees from the ecliptic -- the plane that Earth orbits in. Except for Mercury's inclination of 7 degrees, all the other planets orbit more closely to the ecliptic. Pluto’s average orbital speed is a slow 4.7kms per second. In 2006, NASA dispatched an ambassador to the planetary frontier: The New Horizons spacecraft, now more than halfway between Earth and Pluto, is on approach for a dramatic flight past the icy dwarf planet and its moons in July 2015.After 10 years and more than 3 billion miles, on a historic voyage that has already taken it over the storms and around the moons of Jupiter, New Horizons will shed light on new kinds of worlds on the outskirts of the solar system. . Fun Fact You did not know that Pluto is the god of death in roman mythology Discover the coolest planet in the solar system. TIRED OF THE WARM SUN AND POURING RAIN Want To travel to a Cool place Since first being discovered in 1930, by amateur American astronomer Clyde Tombaug, PLUTO is 2/3 the size of Earth’s Moon and known as the “Dwarf Planet: Pluto has one moon, Charon, which was discovered in 1978. The satellite may be a chunk that broke off Pluto in a collision with another large object. In Just a mere 30-49 AU from the sun or 4.4-7.4 billion kilometers away PLUTO is only a couple of lifetimes away Did you know in Pluto’s rotation can get closer to the sun than Neptune Pluto takes a short time of 247.68 year to make a lap around the sun.Pluto's orbit is the only planetary orbit which crosses that of another planet (during 1999 Pluto will again cross Neptune's orbit, thus regaining its status as the most distant planet) You can relax on the planet of PLUTO that is mostly made out of ice fragment and rock. While most of the other outer planets are “gaseous”: Pluto is the only planet that is “solid” Using new ground-based instrumentation available in the early 1990s, observers discovered ices of water, carbon monoxide, and molecular nitrogen. Although nitrogen’s spectral signature is intrinsically very weak, it is now clear that this substance must be the dominant surface constituent. The methane is present both as patches of pure methane ice and as a frozen “solution” of methane in the nitrogen ice.
