So I saw that pluto's orbit was an eclipse and it passes trough neptunes, the questions: what if they will hit eachother, and can they hit eachother?

1] You mean ellipse
2] When viewed in 3D, it's obvious why they cannot collide.

According to wiki, nope.

The reason being because multiple reasons, and that they only do that if viewed directly from above, but not else as plutos orbit is tilted weirdly.

Found it:

'Relationship with Neptune


Orbit of Pluto—polar view. This 'view from above' shows how Pluto's orbit (in red) is less circular than Neptune's (in blue), and how Pluto is sometimes closer to the Sun than Neptune. The darker halves of both orbits show where they pass below the plane of the ecliptic.
Despite Pluto's orbit appearing to cross that of Neptune when viewed from directly above, the two objects' orbits are aligned so that they can never collide or even approach closely. There are several reasons why.
At the simplest level, one can examine the two orbits and see that they do not intersect. When Pluto is closest to the Sun, and hence closest to Neptune's orbit as viewed from above, it is also the farthest above Neptune's path. Pluto's orbit passes about 8 AU above that of Neptune, preventing a collision.[57][58][59] Pluto's ascending and descending nodes, the points at which its orbit crosses the ecliptic, are currently separated from Neptune's by over 21°.[60]
This alone is not enough to protect Pluto; perturbations from the planets (especially Neptune) could alter aspects of Pluto's orbit (such as its orbital precession) over millions of years so that a collision could be possible. Some other mechanism or mechanisms must therefore be at work. The most significant of these is that Pluto lies in the 3:2 mean motion resonance with Neptune: for every three of Neptune's orbits around the Sun, Pluto makes two. The two objects then return to their initial positions and the cycle repeats, each cycle lasting about 500 years. This pattern is configured so that, in each 500-year cycle, the first time Pluto is near perihelion Neptune is over 50° behind Pluto. By Pluto's second perihelion, Neptune will have completed a further one and a half of its own orbits, and so will be a similar distance ahead of Pluto. Pluto and Neptune's minimum separation is over 17 AU. Pluto comes closer to Uranus (11 AU) than it does to Neptune.[59]
The 3:2 resonance between the two bodies is highly stable, and is preserved over millions of years.[61] This prevents their orbits from changing relative to one another; the cycle always repeats in the same way, and so the two bodies can never pass near to each other. Thus, even if Pluto's orbit were not highly inclined the two bodies could never collide.[59]'

I just realized that I'm sitting in my granmother's basement, eating Thanksgiving leftovers and crushed ice, and talking to people on the internet about Pluto's relationship with Neptune.

This tread used to be intelligent until you started with your, compared to my ttread, dumb post. Therefore your post is unintelligent.

What you failed to realize is that what this thread is about and what we're talking about are two different things and you cannot compare them. Even if you could, you asked a question so the only logical assumtion anyone could make is that you weren't itelligent enough to figure it out on your own, which means my conversation is more intelligent.

Our conversation started about the same subject of the thread, then you made it poop.
