What holds the moon and planets in place?
Gravity is what holds the moon and planets in place. The gravitational force between these celestial bodies and the larger objects like the sun keeps them in their orbits and maintains their positions in the solar system.
Are planets held in place by gravity?
Yes they are the sun has gravity that holds the planets in place.
Why can't the atmosphere of gas giant planets escape into space?
Where a planet or moon has an atmosphere, it is the gravity of the moon or planet that holds the atmosphere on the planet or moon.
How do planets move and what keeps them in place?
Planets move away by gravity not holding it together and also gravity holds planets together
Why the earth and all planet around the sun?
The gravity from the sun "holds" the planets into place and make them orbit the sun. Just like the gravity from the Earth makes the moon orbit the Earth.
What is the centripetal force holding the moon into Earth?
The force that holds the moon in place is gravity. Without gravity, there wouldn't be a moon.
why was gravity made or like thought of?
it holds the planets that orbit around the sun and what keeps the moon in orbit around the Earth
What are the planets on the moon?
None. The Earth's moon is not a planet and there are no planets "ON" any moon. Many planets in the solar system have several moons.
What holds the moon in place so it doesn't shoot off into space?
The moon is held in place by Earth's gravitational pull. The gravitational force between Earth and the moon keeps the moon in orbit around the Earth.
Why do the planets and moon stay in place?
Because they're in the gravitational pull of the sun known as orbit
Why does the earth not fly off into space?
Because the suns orbit holds the earth and all of the other planets in place.
What planet is the moon?
The Moon is a moon and the planets are planets, so it's impossible for a moon to be a planet. See related questions.
