[1] The Earth's orbit, with its axis tilted at 23.5 degrees, exhibits approximate axial parallelism, maintaining its direction towards Polaris (the "North Star") year-round.
[6] Minor variation in the direction of the axis, known as axial precession, takes place over the course of 26,000 years.
For example, the axial parallelism of the Moon's orbital plane[8] is a key factor in the phenomenon of eclipses.
The Moon's orbital axis precesses a full circle during the 18 year, 10 day saros cycle.
In addition, the rings of Saturn remain in a fixed direction as that planet rotates around the Sun.
