Most stars orbit around the center of a galaxy. Some stars are parts of star clusters; in that case, they will also orbit around the center of the star cluster.

What does a planet orbit?

How do the orbit of planets differ from the orbit of moons?
A planet orbits a star. A moon orbits a planet or dwarf planet.
What do you call a path a planet follows as it travels around the sun?
U answer
What do you call a planet and a star orbit?
the sun
When planets orbit a star?
When don't they? If a planet is in orbit around a star, it is in continual orbit. Orbital periods (the lengths of time it takes different planets to complete one orbit) are different from planet to planet, and are related to the distances between the planets and their stars.
Does Venus orbit a planet?
No, Venus does not orbit a planet. It orbits a star, which is our Sun. It can not orbit a planet , if it did it would be a moon

How can you tell something is a planet and not a moon?
A planet is in direct orbit around a central star, while a moon is in orbit around a large body (a planet) rather than in a direct orbit around a star. The moon orbits the planet, while the planet orbits the sun.
Does the star orbit the sun and the planet doesnt?
The sun is a star. And planets within its gravitational reach orbit it.
What are planets with no orbit?
If an object that would otherwise be considered a planet doesn't orbit a star, it is known as a "rogue planet".
What type of celestial object does your planet orbit?
