It's been observed that they do, and scientific theories have been developed to show in quite a lot of detail how they do. Their forward speed stops them falling into the Sun under the force of gravity, but the gravity causes their paths to curve continuously towards the Sun.
What else can I help you with?
How fast do the planets orbit the earth?
The planets do not orbit the Earth, they orbit the sun.
Which two planets orbit the sun not the earth?
All the planets in our solar system orbit the Sun, not the Earth.Mercury and Venus orbit between the Sun and the Earth's orbit.

No it does notNo we are not the only planet in the galaxy we have 8 other planets to. if the earth and the moon was that close to the sun we wouldn't be living.
What forces holds the earth and other planets in the Sun's orbit?
Simple. Gravity! The planets are dragged in by the gravity of the sun.
How does the gravity of the sun impact on earth?
The sun's gravity keeps the earth and the other planets in orbit around it
Earth and eight other major planets do this around the sun?
orbit =)
How does the sun gravity effect earth and other planets?
It keeps them in orbit
What star does the earth and other planets in the solar system orbit?
the sun
How do you define the Sun?
The sun is the star in which Earth and the other planets in the solar system orbit.
Why does earth and all other planets orbit the sun?
