Graph[edit]
- Orbits
- Mercury in yellow
- For reference a circular orbit with the same semi-major axis in grey
- The orbit plotted in brighter colours above the ecliptic and darker below.
- Major axis drawn showing perihelion (q) and aphelion (Q)
- Mercury
- Positions show every 5 days before and after the perihelion on May 20, 2006
- For illustration the size of the sphere is inversley proportional to the distance from the Sun.
- Orientation
- The Sun in the center.
- Yellow segment points toward the vernal point.
- View from the above the ecliptic (North Pole)
