English: Trajectory of 61 Cygni B relative to A as seen from Earth (inclined ellipse) and from above (horizontal ellipse). Axis unit is arcseconds, where 1 arcsec = 3.4865 AU.
Orbital data from: Hartkopf, W. I.; Brian D. Mason, B. D.: "Sixth Catalog of Orbits of Visual Binary Stars", U.S. Naval Observatory. http://ad.usno.navy.mil/wds/orb6.html Parallax from SIMBAD (retrieved 2011-08-09; note that these values may be updated from time to time, and thus en.wikipedia may use another value due to different access dates.
