Earth lies outside its orbit

Hello everybody.

I've just noticed that unzooming Earth and enabling orbit tracks, Earth doesn't intersect its own orbit, but lies a bit apart.
You can see it especially when looking at the Earth from above/below the ecliptic.
Any hint about this?

Thanks and greeting from Italy!
