How does earth stay in space and not fall?

The gravitational pull of the Sun keeps the planets in orbit without "falling." This is the same effect the Earth has on the Moon.


How do planets stay up in outer space?

Invisible trolls controlled by fairies keep the planets from falling. Space as we all know can be visited by flying on a unicorn which you can buy from your local pet shop. Make sure you say high to these magical creatures on your visit.


How are all of the planets kept in orbit around the sun?

all the planets stay in orbit around the sun because of the sun's gravitational pull. The high orbital speed that keeps the planets from falling all the way into the sun and since there is no friction in the vacuum of space , that speed dosen't slow down.


How do rings stay around planets?

There is 0 gravity in space, so the rings stay in place.


What holds the planets in their orbits?

Planets are held in their orbits by the gravitational force exerted by the sun. This force is what allows planets to stay in motion around the sun without flying off into space or falling into the sun.


Why do the planets stay in the same orbit the whole time?

Because the gravitational pull of the Sun - keeps them there ! The planets are always trying to fly out into space, but the outward pull of the planets is counteracted by the gravity the sun exerts on them. If the sun's gravity stopped - all the planets would zoom off into space !


Why do planets stay up in the sky?

There is no gravity in space so they just sort of float and every planet orbits around the sun and also helps them stay in place


Why do the planets all stay orbit around the sun and not drift on in an empty space?

Its because the gravitational field of the sun pulls the planets towards the sun and balances the intertia of the planets which make them want to move in a straight line.


How do the planets stay in the sky?

planets stay in the sky due to the pull of gravity


Why do planets have to be in space?

If they aren't in space, then where else can they be?


Why do the planets stay in orbit rather then drift into space?

Planetary orbits are a balance between gravity, which pulls them toward the Sun, and inertia that keeps them moving forward in the same direction as they are going now. Inertia causes the planets to keep moving just as before, but gravity pulls them toward the Sun. As the planets fall toward the Sun, the inertia (more properly called "momentum") keeps making the planet miss the Sun as it is falling.


How is the meteoroids different from a planet?

I believe meteoroids don't stay in orbit . . . they kind of just wander around in space, however planets have an orbit so they have a set path to stay on.
