Orbits don't have a beginning or end, so it can't really finish. It's like an endless loop that keeps going around and around. It takes 247.92 years to make one trip around that loop.

Pluto can never clear its orbit. It has too little mass and most of the objects along its orbital path are more strongly influenced by Neptune than they are by Pluto.

How many months long is a year on Pluto?

First, we have to figure out what a "year on Pluto" means. On earth, we call a "year" the time it takes our planet to revolve one complete trip around the sun. It takes Pluto 248 of those to make one trip around the sun. Next, we have to tackle the tougher problem of what a "month" means. On earth, we used to call it a "month" every time the moon went through a complete cycle of phases. That's about 29.5 of our days. We don't count months that way any more, but they're still close. If you want to count months the same way on Pluto, then you run into two serious problems right away. 1). Pluto has two moons, and they take different lengths of time to revolve around the planet, so which one are you going to use to count months ? 2). We don't know the orbital period of either one. So let's use earth months instead. One year on Pluto is 2,976 earth-months long.

Since 1776 how many times has Pluto orbited the sun?

It takes roughly 248 years for Pluto to orbit the Sun once. 2012-1776=236 years 236/248=0.95 orbits As you can see, Pluto is ALMOST done with one orbit around the Earth, going from the year 1776 to 2012.

How far is Pluto from earth if your going at a rate of 50000 mph?

It would take approx. 6.36 to 10.4 years to get to Pluto. The variance is due to Pluto traveling in an orbit that makes it come closer to the sun at some times.
