Technically, no object orbits the other; instead, they orbit their mutual "barycenter", which is a balance between the masses of the two objects. For example, the Earth and the Moon both orbit their "barycenter", which is still within the volume of the Earth. (That's why the Earth is the planet and the Moon is the satellite, instead of us being co-planets.)
Because the Sun is SO massive and the planets so relatively puny, the barycenter of the Sun-Earth system is pretty much at the center of the Sun; the Sun itself wobbles an incredibly tiny amount.
But that star-planet wobble is sometimes enough for us to detect it; that's how the first dozen or so extra-solar planets were discovered, because of the gravitational wobble caused by the planet!
What else can I help you with?
Does the sun orbit Earth?
No, the sun does not orbit Earth. Earth orbits around the sun.
Does it take the sun 1 year to orbit the earth?
The sun doesn't orbit the earth, and it takes one year for the earth to orbit the sun.
Which two planets orbit the sun not the earth?
All the planets in our solar system orbit the Sun, not the Earth.Mercury and Venus orbit between the Sun and the Earth's orbit.
When will the earth orbit the sun?
The Earth does a complete orbit around the sun in 365 days.
How much time for earth to orbit the sun?
It takes a year or the earth to orbit the sun.
How long does it take the earth to complete orbit the sun?
It's more than likely a year
How fast do the planets orbit the earth?
The planets do not orbit the Earth, they orbit the sun.
How long does it take for Mars to orbit the sun compared to Earth?
It takes Earth about 365 Earth days to orbit the sun. It takes Mars about 687 Earth days to orbit the sun. This means it takes Mars about 1.88 times longer to orbit the sun than Earth.
The time it takes for the earth to orbit the sun?
Our earth takes 365.25 days to orbit the sun .
What planets orbit between the sun and earth?
Mercury and Venus orbit between the Sun and Earth.
What do you call the path on which the Earth moves around the sun?
The name of the path the earth takes around the sun is known as the orbit. The earth takes slightly over 365 to complete its revolution round the sun.
Why does the moon orbit the sun?
it doesn't orbit the sun it orbits the earth
