Can the moon orbit around the sun?
No, the moon orbits around the Earth, not the sun. This is due to the gravitational pull between the Earth and the moon. The moon's orbit around the Earth is what causes its phases and affects tides on Earth.
Does the moon orbits or circles the sun?
The Moon orbits the Sun. The gravitation of the Earth will provide slight disturbances to the Moon's orbit around the Sun, but mainly, the Moon moves around the Sun.The Moon orbits the Sun.

What causes the moon to orbit around the sun?
the moon doesent orbit the sun, the earth orbits the sun and the moon orbits the earth.
What are two things that keep the moon in a nearly circular orbit around the sun?
Gravity and velocity.
Is the earths orbit around the sun a cause of the phases of the moon?
No. The moon's orbit around the earth is.
What force keeps the moon in orbit around the sun?
The force that keeps the moon in orbit around the sun is the gravitational force between the sun and the moon. This force causes the moon to continuously fall towards the sun but its orbital motion prevents it from colliding with the sun.
Dose moon orbit around the sun?
You know that the earth does that, right ?Well, if the moon didn't keep up with us and orbit the sun too, there would be no way thatit could always stay just about the same distance from us.So yes, the moon definitely does orbit the sun.
Does the sun's gravity keep the moon in orbit?
no the earth does
Is the moon's orbit the same as the earths orbit around the sun?
not quite. The moon circles the Earth, which circles the sun. So the moon's orbit around the sun isn't a smooth track, but consist of a wave like pattern.
How many years does it take for the moon to go around the sun?
The moon goes around the earth. The earth goes around the sun in a year. So, for purposes of astronomy, the earth and moon are one unit going around the sun. Therefore the moon goes around the sun in one year.
Is the earth's natural satellite the sun?
no, the moon is the Earths natural satellite, the moon is in orbit around the Earth. The whole Earth/Moon system is then in orbit around the sun.
Does the earth orbit around the sun and moon?
No. The moon revolves around Earth, and Earth revolves around the sun.
