It is the natural tendency for an object in motion to keep moving at the same speed in a straight line. Meanwhile gravity is trying to pull each planet toward the sun. The two forces combine to keep the planets in their elliptical orbits. They have enough forward momentum to keep them from falling into the sun, and they have enough pull from the sun to keep them from following a straight path out of the solar system.
What else can I help you with?
How many moons do the suns have?
The Sun has no moons. Moons orbit Planets > Planets orbit the Sun.
Does the sun orbit the planets or do the planets orbit the sun?

Does the sun orbit the planets?
No. The planets orbit the Sun and the Sun orbits itself.
What do the planets and the sun orbit?
the sun does not move, the planets orbit around the sun idiot.
Can planets and stars orbit around the sun?
Planets orbit the sun. Stars do not.
How the moon orbit the sun?
None. This is a trick question. Moons orbit PLANETS. Planets orbit the Sun.
Do all planets orbit the moon?
No. The planets orbit the sun.
How fast do the planets orbit the earth?
The planets do not orbit the Earth, they orbit the sun.
Do moons and asteroids orbit the sun?
Asteroids orbit the sun. Moons orbit planets and planets orbit the sun. So you could say the moons orbit the sun. However, moons are kept in their orbits by the gravity of their planet and planets are kept in orbit by the gravity of the sun. So in that sense, moons do not 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.
The largest objects that orbit the sun are called?
The largest objects that orbit the sun are planets.
