Dance of Planets - Saturn

Follow
Ujjwal Suryakant Rane

Created with MicroStation http://www.Bentley.com this clip presents the path of planet Saturn as it appears from the Earth. For comparison, the path of planet Jupiter is also included. The signature retrograde motion of the planets is pointed out and explained. Comparing the two paths and the pace at which they get traced, confirms that Jupiter's orbital motion is much faster about 2.5 times so, owing to its orbital period being just 12 years, compared to Saturn's regal 30 years! :)
Enjoy the Dance of Planets! Luckily this is not Tango! :)
