Objects orbit because planets, stars, and other large objects in space have their own gravitational pull. If it gets close enough, it will be pulled toward the object with a gravitational pull. If it is at the edge of its gravitational pull field, it will be pulled, but not directly at it and instead increase the speed it is moving at
