What are small fragments of matter orbiting the sun?
planets
Small lumps of rock orbitting sun are called what?
metoreorite
Why is day and night?
because we need night to sleep and we have the moon which gives us nightthere is day and night because as the earth is orbitting round the sun ,is also spinning and moon is also orbitting round the earth.there is day and night because as the earth is orbitting round the sun ,is also spinning and moon is also orbitting round the earth.

Can you see more than one sun from earth?
yes. every star is a sun. each star could possibly have its ownplanets orbitting it(like earth).
Do any of the planets stop orbiting?
no because of the gravity of the sun wont let it stop orbitting because the gravitational pull and the spinning of the planets so it dosent go in to the sun
Moon orbits eath instead of the sun why?
Because Earth's gravity holds it in orbit. Earth is much closer so its gravity is stronger.However, the moon does orbit the Sun, it simply orbits the Earth in addition to orbitting the Sun.
What are fragments of matter similar in composition to planets that orbit the sun?
Small fragments of matter orbiting earth are known as meteoroids. Once they enter the atmosphere of the earth, they become meteors.
What are fragments similar in composition to planets that orbit the sun?
comet
Does the sun have matter?
Yes the sun does have matter since the sun has volume and mass
Why has Japan got the biggest sunset?
They don't. The sun is the same distance from the earth, no matter which country you're in.
What you can see from the spaceship and how you feel if it moves out of the gravitational pull?
You can see anything you need to through the portholes. If there are cameras or telescopes, you can see with those too. If you are not accelerating, you are going the same place, in the same way, as the ship itself. This state is called "free fall". So nothing seems any different if you are orbitting close to the atmosphere, in geosynchronous orbit, orbitting the Sun at Uranus, or heading for deep space. Only when you compare "clock rates" of very accurate clocks between the ship and Earth's surface do you see any effects of the "gravitational pull" and "relative motion" in effect near each clock, and how they differ.
