Summary

Description
English: The diagram illustrates the orbits of Ceres (blue) and several planets (white/grey). The segments of orbits below the ecliptic are plotted in darker colours, and the orange plus sign is the Sun's location. The top left diagram is a polar view that shows the location of Ceres in the gap between Mars and Jupiter. The top right is a close-up demonstrating the locations of the perihelia (q) and aphelia (Q) of Ceres and Mars. Interestingly, the perihelia of Ceres (as well as those of several other of the largest MBAs) and Mars are on the opposite sides of the Sun. The bottom diagram is a perspective view showing the inclination of the orbit of Ceres compared to the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
Deutsch: Das Diagramm illustriert die Umlaufbahnen der Ceres (blau) und mehrerer Planeten (weiß/grau). Die Abschnitte der Umlaufbahnen unter der Ekliptik sind in dunkleren Farben dargestellt und die orangenen Plus-Zeichen bezeichnen die Position der Sonne. Das Diagramm links oben ist eine polare Sicht der Periapsis, die die Position der Ceres in der Lücke zwischen Mars und Jupiter zeigt. Das Diagramm rechts oben ist eine Nahaufnahme, die die Positionen der Periapsis (q) und der Apoapsis (Q) der Ceres und des Mars zeigen. Interessanterweise ist die Periapsis der Ceres (wie auch die mehrerer anderer der größten MBAs) und des Mars auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite der Sonne. Das untere Diagramm ist eine perspektivische Sicht, die die Inklination der Umlaufbahn der Ceres mit den Umlaufbahnen des Mars und des Jupiter vergleicht.
Français : Ce schéma montre les orbites de la planète naine (1) Cérès (bleu) et de certaines autres planètes du système solaire (vert et gris). La partie de chaque orbite située sous le plan de l' écliptique est affichée d'une couleur plus sombre ; la croix orange représente la position du Soleil.
