The moon has a 'lunar day' of approximately 29.5 Earth days, this is the time taken for it to complete one synodic rotation, the length of one full cycle of moon phases.
During this time its orbit takes it around the Earth with a complete orbit taking a period very close to that of it's rotational period; this is why the same face always faces Earth. However it should be noted that, while one side may face the Earth, there is no dark side of the moon; with only a few craters remaining in constant shade.

∙ 14y agoThe Earth DOES not orbit the moon. The Earth orbits the Sun. The Moon orbits the Earth The Moon's orbit isn't either of those numbers anyway. It's about 29.5 days.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoThe Moon has orbited the Earth for hundreds of billions of days. The Moon takes about 27 days to orbit Earth. From one full moon to the next, however, is about 29 1/2 days on average.

∙ 14y agoThe moon completes an orbital revolution around the earth in 27.32 days, or 0.0748 year .
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoNo. It takes about 27 days for the Moon to rotate once on its axis.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoThe moon goes around the Earth every 29 days 12 hours and 44 minutes. It is the basis for what we call a month.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoThe earth orbits the sun every 365.25 days. The extra quarter of a day each year stacks up to one full day every fours years, hence the leap year once every four years.

∙ 7y agoThe comparison doesn't make sense. A light-year is a unit of distance, not a unit of time like the day.

∙ 12y agoNo. More like 27.32 days. (rounded)

Is it true that the earth has an orbit of 28 days?
No, The earth's orbit is slightly over 365 days
Which planet takes about 365 days to orbit the sun?
The Earth takes about 365 days (1 year) to orbit the sun.
Why It takes earth 365 days to the sun?
orbit
How many days does it take planet Earth to complete an orbit?
It takes Earth 365 and 1/4 days to complete an orbit.
How many days it take to orbit the sun?
for earth it take 365 1/4 days
How long for Moon to orbit Sun?
The Moon actually orbits the Earth, which it does in 28 days, but if you consider the Earth and the Moon as a double system, then the Moon orbits the Sun once a year, just as the Earth does. The Moon is much closer to the Earth than the Earth and the Moon are to the Sun.
How does the moon take to orbit the sun?
The moon does not orbit the sun independently; it orbits the earth. So the moon orbits the sun in about 365 and a quarter days, just like earth.
Where does the earth orbit to 365 days?
The Earth takes 365 1/4 days to orbit the Sun.
How many days in one moon year?
A "Moon year" is almost exactly the same as an Earth year. That's about 365 Earth days. The Earth and Moon orbit the Sun in about 365.25 Earth days. So the answer is: about 365. If you mean how many "Moon days" in one Moon year, that's different. The Moon rotates in about 27.3 Earth days. That's one definition of a "Moon day". In that case the answer is about 365/27.3 days = about 13.37 days.
How many days to take moon orbit the sun?
365 but not really because the moon orbits the earth not the sun
How long does it take for moon to revolve around the sun?
The moon revolves around its axis and it orbits the earth. The earth and the moon orbit the sun. Neither the earth nor the moon revolves around the sun; however, the two of them take 365 days to complete an orbit around the sun.
How long the moon takes to orbit the earth and the earth to orbit the sun?
It takes 27.3 days for the Moon to complete one full orbit around the Earth. how long does it take for the earth to rotate around the sun? It takes exactly 365 and a quarter days for the earth to orbit around the sun once.
Is it true that the earth has an orbit of 28 days?
No, The earth's orbit is slightly over 365 days
Earth days to orbit the sun?
365 days
How long does it take for the earth to orbit the sun and moon?
The earth doesn't orbit the moon. The moon orbits the earth in 28 days. The earth orbits the sun in 365 days, plus a quarter day each year, hence leap years so our calendar stays in sync.
How many days does the sun take to orbt the moon?
The sun doesn't orbit anything, the planets orbit the sun, and our moon orbits us. It takes 24 hours forthe moon to orbit us once and 365 days for the earth to orbit the sun once
How long does it take the moon to obit the sun?
it takes the moon approximetly 28 days to orbIt the earth. -anna- from Liberty High School..during pre ap English class with my friend Natasha
