  • ?????????? uh what's with all the weird commentz? i like cheeze!

  • this is wrong mecury changes orbit! into a petal motion

  • True, but they are very close to circular. To get a stereotypical elliptical shape, you need to look at an orbit with an eccentricity close to 1, like a comet's orbit.

  • Sorry but all planetary orbits in the solar system are elliptical

  • Let us calculate how noncircular Mercury's orbit is. Its eccentricity e = 0.206, and its minor axis is sqrt(1-e^2) = 0.979 times its major axis, meaning that its vertical axis is only a few pixels shorter than its horizontal axis. So it's hard to see unless you measure it with an image editor.

  • FAKE planetary orbits are ellipses not circles

  • Just no
