Wikipedia
Экли́птика (от лат. (linea) ecliptica, от др.-греч. ἔκλειψις — затмение) — большой круг небесной сферы, по которому происходит видимое с Земли годичное движение Солнца относительно звёзд. Соответственно, плоскость эклиптики — это плоскость обращения Земли вокруг Солнца (плоскость земной орбиты). Современное, более точное определение эклиптики — сечение небесной сферы плоскостью орбиты обращения вокруг Солнца барицентра системы Земля — Луна.
Все известные планеты Солнечной системы и большинство других тел в ней движутся вблизи плоскости эклиптики в том же направлении, что и Земля. Созвездия, лежащие в плоскости эклиптики, называются зодиакальными созвездиями. Плоскость эклиптики является фундаментальной плоскостью эклиптической системы координат, в которой координаты светила выражаются эклиптической широтой и эклиптической долготой.
