DescriptionOuter Planet Orbits.jpg
English: This image shows the orbits, nodes, and perihelion/aphelion positions of the outer planets. Seen from the northern ecliptic pole. The planets run counterclockwise. The blue part of an orbit is north of the ecliptic plane, the pink part south. Green dot: perihelion; red dot: aphelion.
Français : Cette image montre les orbites, les noeuds, et la position des périhélies et aphélies des planètes les plus extérieures de notre système solaire, vu du pôle de l'écliptique nord. Les planetes orbitent dans le sens inverse des aiguilles d'une montre (sens trigonometrique). La partie bleue des orbites est au nord du plan de l'écliptique terrestre, la partie rose au sud. Point vert: périhélie; point rouge: aphélie.
Deutsch: Diese Abbildung zeigt die Bahnen, Knoten, und Lage der Perihelien und Aphelien der äußeren Planeten, gesehen vom nördlichen Ekliptikpol. Die Planeten laufen gegen den Uhrzeigersinn. Der blaue Teil einer Bahn liegt nördlich der Ekliptikebene, der violette südlich. Grüner Punkt: Perihel; roter Punkt: Aphel.
