The moon orbits because of the gravitational pull from a plant. Planets move around the sun because. The lighter object orbits the heavier one, and the Sun is, by far, the heaviest object in the solar system.

Does the sun and the moon move?

Yes, both the sun and the moon appear to move across the sky due to the Earth's rotation. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, while the moon rises in the east and sets in the west as well, but its movement is more complex due to its orbit around the Earth.


The strip of the sky which the Sun the Moon and the bright planets appear to move?

The strip of the sky in which the Sun, Moon, and bright planets appear to move is called the ecliptic. The ecliptic is the apparent path that the Sun takes through the sky over the course of a year due to the Earth's orbit around it. It is also the path that the Moon and planets generally follow, staying close to this line in the sky.


Is the moon and sun a planet?

Neither the Sun nor the Moon are planets. Planets rotate around the Sun. Moons rotate around planets. There are other rules to explain the difference between planets and asteroids and comets which also rotate around the sun. Such as planets because of their strong gravitational field, clear objects in their rotation around the Sun, something a small asteroid, nor a small comet can do. However, neither the Sun (which planets rotate around), nor, the Moon (which rotates around the planet Earth), is a planet.
