The sun is in the milky way galaxy. In the center of the galaxy is a huge black hole that holds the billions of star up. If you do not believe me go to the videos about How The Universe Works. It clearly shows proof.

What holds the planets and other bodies of our solar system in orbit around the sun?
They are held by the force of gravity, specifically the gravitational pull of the Sun. Just as gravity holds people to the Earth's surface, and the Earth holds space stations in orbit, so the Sun holds the planets in their orbits. The orbital velocity of the planets (momentum) keeps them from falling into the Sun, while the Sun keeps them from flying off into space. This combination of counteracting forces also keeps the Earth its current distance from the Sun. Mercury, closer to the Sun, travels more quickly to balance the stronger pull of the Sun.
The sun holds earth and orbits because of?
gravity. the mass of the sun is so large that it is able to pull in all the planets and what not
Why does sand get hotter than dirt?
the sun rays hit the ground"sand " it becomes heated up and holds most of the heat directed from the sun. grass is much cooler because it absorbs water or dew not like mountain dew the dew in the mornings on the grass or cars. The sun will eventually dry it out but the grass holds it to cool it self later
Does the sun's gravity holds most of the asteroids in the area beyond mars?
Jupiter
What forces act to hold a planet in orbit around the sun?
Gravity is the force that holds a planet in orbit around the sun. Inertia keeps the planets spinning.
Why do you have outer space?
we have outer space because what else is going to hold the planets up and not let them fall forever, that's what our sun does, and outer space holds the sun up
Which object's gravity holds the planets in their orbits?
The sun's gravity holds the planets in their orbits. It also holds other space objects in their orbits, such as asteroids.
What force holds inner planets tightly to the sun?
Gravity :) (Gravity also holds the outer planets tightly to the Sun.)
What holds planets and moons in orbit?
The Sun`s gravity holds all the planets in orbit in space.The gravitational attraction from our Sun.
What force holds the sun together?
The sun is just a huge ball of hydrogen and helium. The heat created on the sun is from billions of hydrogen atoms smelting together to helium atoms. All these atoms are held together by the gravity.
What holds the sun and planets?
the universe da !
What does the air in the troposphere do as it heats up from the sun?
It usually holds more water because of evaporation and makes the earth very hot.
What does the air in troposphere do as it heat up from the sun?
It usually holds more water because of evaporation and makes the earth very hot.
What does the air in the the troposphere do as it heats up from the sun?
It usually holds more water because of evaporation and makes the earth very hot.
What is a advantage of a sun?
the sun gives us heat and holds the earth in place with its gravity
What from the sun holds the planets in orbit?
The Sun AND its planets attract each other with gravitic force.
How does gravity of the sun affect earth and other planets?
the sun holds 98% of the solar system.
