What makes the planets not crash into each other?

Planets have relatively stable orbits. But please note that this doesn't mean they can never crash into one another.


Why planets orbite around each other rather than crash due to gravity?

They keep running away from each other.


Do Each of the eight planets share an orbit?

No. If they do, they would crash into each other at some time and we wouldn't see them at all.


What would happen if there's is no gravity and inertia?

There would be no life because with out the planets and the sun pulling on each other they would spin out of control and possibly crash into each other.


Why does the moon not crash on earth but stay in space and not float away or into earth?

The moon and other planets and their satellites are held in space by the force of gravity from other planets and satellites. If the moon tried to drift off into space, gravitational forces from the Earth will keep it from floating away. It doesn't crash into the Earth because planets and moons pull AGAINST each other and keep each other from drifting away.* * * * *Only partly true.The moon does not float away because of the action of earth's gravity - whether you view this as a force or a distirtion of space-time in the moon's path.The moon does not crash into the earth, not because of other planets or satellites, but because of the momentum of its orbit around the earth.


Why don't planets crash?

Each planet stays in it own orbit or path as it circles the sun. The orbits are very very very far apart. the planets never move out of their orbits so they never crash into each other. space probes that go from earth to Venus and Mars our closet neighbor planets have to travel for several months. space probes that go to the farther planets have to travel for years. :) Answer from my first book about space, a question and answer book.<3


Do planets crash into the sun?

no


What will happen if the planets do not follow their orbits?

If a planet doesn't follow its orbital path, then it may crash into other planets, moons and/or other object floating around in space.


Why are the planets in spaced out?

because of the gravitational pull of the other planets that are in line with each other


What is a small rocky particle that moves through space and most often is about the size of a grain of sand?

A small rocky object that orbits the Sun is an asteroid. The Asteroid Belt, a collection of many asteroids, is located between Mars and Jupiter.


Why don't planets bump into each other?

because the gravatational pull from the sun and other planets keep the planets going in a circler motion and not bumping into each other.Answerbecause the gravatational pull from the sun and other planets keep the planets going in a circler motion and not bumping into each other. the planets each have defined Elliptical, not circular, orbits that remain constant because of gravitational pull of the sun and from each other. Pluto does have such an elliptical orbit that for a time it was closer than Neptune, but they will never collide with their current paths.


Where do planets get energy they need to grow?

Planets do not require energy to grow. Large spacial objects crash into them and they collect. PLANTS on the other hand, they get energy from the sun.
