The axis, or rotational axis. Pretty much, the line around which the earth spins.


How many days does neptune go around the sun?

It takes Neptune 165 Earth years to circle the Sun ONCE. The amount of time it takes for any planet to circle the sun is one year. Its year is longer because it is further away. Its orbit is much larger than Earth's.


What what is the shape of the moon's orbit around Earth?

The orbit of the Moon around the Earth is elliptical. An ellipse is a flattened circle, much like an oval. The Moon takes just under a month to revolve around the Earth. Looking down on the Earth above the North Pole, the Moon revolves counterclockwise around the Earth, which is the same direction that the Earth rotates on its axis.An ellipse. Very close to a circle though.Unlike many other moons, the Earth's moon follows an elliptical orbit.

Which planets have an axis besides earth?

Pretty much every planet has an axis, because an axis is what a planet rotates around. Any planet that rotates has an axis, and pretty much every planet known rotates.


Is the earth tilted the same way during orbit?

More or less. A rotating object has the tendency to maintain its rotation, including the direction of the rotation axis. However, Earth's axis changes over time, much like a spinning top; read about "Precession" for more details. In the case of Earth, a full cycle takes about 26,000 years.
