Two answers . No. 1 :it's the force of gravity says Newton No. 2 :there is no force. The mass of the sun curves space-time. Each planet moves along what is, for it, the easiest path says Einstein Which one is right ? Well, Newton is right to a pretty close approximation, but Einstein is even closer. The orbit of Mercury is well predicted by Einstein's theory, but not by Newton's.
The force of gravity. Any mass will have gravity, the magnitude of which depends on the size of the mass. The earth and the moon attract each other, but at the same time their speeds relative to each other work in the opposite direction. These forces are balanced out like two people spinning while holding each others hands.
There is no force that prevents things crashing into each other. The fact that they do not crash into each other does not mean there is something preventing it.
Each planet is in its own stable orbit round the Sun, with the force of gravity pulling it towards the Sun, but that force is exactly balanced by an acceleration towards the Sun according to Newton's laws of motion.
The sideways speed of the planet means that the acceleration only makes the planet continuously curve towards the Sun without ever going much closer.
very large and powerful rubber bands hold them ie planets in place
Gravity and Inertia.
the gravity from the moon
Gravity.
The force of the Sun's gravity keeps them in their orbits.
Gravity is what keeps the planets going in their orbits. If gravity just stopped, then the planets would go flying in a straight line tangent to their orbit.
The gravitational force between the sun and each object in the solar system
Gravity. If you want to know why you should look up Newton's laws of gravity all three of them.
Well, they are being attracted to the sun, but orbit fast enough that they don't fall into the Sun.
what keeps the moon from flying off into outer space
Gravity and motion. Gravity pulls the planets in and keeps them from flying away, while the velocity of the planets keeps them from being sucked in completely.
The force of the Sun's gravity keeps them in their orbits.
Sun's gravitational force keeps all the planets bound to the sun
The force that keeps all of our planets in rotation is gravity.

Gravity is what keeps the planets going in their orbits. If gravity just stopped, then the planets would go flying in a straight line tangent to their orbit.
The force of gravity.
The Sun's Gravitational pull keeps the planets orbiting it, not flying into deep space.
The gravity of the Sun keeps the planets in their orbits. They stay in their orbits because there is no other force in the Solar System which can stop them.
The gravity of there star keeps them on path and a planets moon is sun around by its planets gravitational force
nothing
