What else can I help you with?
Do the inner planets have direct or in direct orbit?
All the planets have direct orbits round the Sun.
How does the orbits effect the way planets move?
Orbits help a planet move because of gravitational pull which makes the planet orbit round and round. The planets orbit around the son and the moon orbits around earth. Hope this helps!
What makes the motion of planets revolutionary?
They revolve. They all have individual orbits round the Sun. The orbits closely approximate ellipses.
What are the orbits of the gas giant planets?
They are the path taken by the gas giant planets (that is Jupiter and Saturn) as they go round the Sun.
Why do you think planets do not have same orbits?
It's because each planets is a collection of all the debris that was going round in a similar orbit before the planets were formed. So the planets only survived to the present day by having different orbits.
What astronomer discovered that the orbits of the planets are elliptical rather than round?
Johannes Kepler.
What do planets do when they orbit the earth?
There are no planets orbiting the Earth because all eight of them orbit the Sun. But the Moon orbits the Earth, and all it does is go round and round in a rather complicated orbit which is disturbed by the Sun's gravity.
What is the main difference between the orbits of the inner and outer planets?
The planets revolve in elliptical orbits. The inner planets have orbits 230 million km or less from the Sun. The outer planets have orbits 775 million km or greater.
What force is responible for the orbits of the planets in the solar system?
Gravity from the Sun holds the planets in their orbits.
Why do planets change their position with respect to stars?
Because the Earth and all the planets move in orbits round the Sun, while the stars appear to be fixed if we disregard the Earth's daily rotation.
What are the four planets that have orbits from most to least?
All the planets have orbits so four cannot be picked out.
Is Mars round?
The planet Mars is round in shape. All of the planets in our solar system are orbits. The gravitational pull of the sun has formed the planets to be around.
