What are two ways that planets are different from stars?
1) Although planets can be composed primarily of rock or gas, only stars are objects made of gas that are massive enough to support a nuclear fusion reaction. 2) Although planets and stars can orbit stars (as in binary systems), stars never orbit planets.
What are some ways that stars and planets are similar?
Planets and stars are similar:FEW OF THE WAYS ARE :Both the stars and planets moveThey are celestial objectsThey are studied by astronomers
Why do planets move relative to the stars?
Gravitational pull. Have you heard of the "heliocentric theory"? This says that the sun is the center of our galaxy, the milky way. because of its mass, all the planets in this solar system orbit around it. our moon is in the earths pull and orbits it. the planets move with the earth. actually the stars do as well. ____________________ To clarify: You may hear people say things like "the fixed stars", or "against the back-drop of the fixed stars", or "the distant stars", or "the canopy of stars". These refer to the fact that the stars (not including planets and other objects) seem not to move relative to one another. This canopy of stars does appear to move relative to earth, because of our orbit and our axial rotation. But, for example, the stars of Orion always form the constellation of Orion, even though we may see it rise and set at different times, and it may not even be visible at night, depending on the time of year. On the other hand, the planets and many other objects are orbiting the sun, and they are not part of that huge display of very distant stars and galaxies. We can observe the orbital movement of the planets, and can easily see that their positions against the back-drop of stars change according to their positions in their orbits.
Name two ways astronomers can find planets around other stars?
microlensing
How many ways do planets move?
they can orbit or rotate around in space
Are galaxies related to planets?
Galaxies are generally a collection of stars. But within any galaxy, there are lots of other objects, including planets. So galaxies are related to planets in some ways.
What things are in the solar system and milky ways and planets?
Comets, solar flares, asteriod belt, stars
How do you calculate current position of the planets using Microsoft Excel?
You would need to know a lot about astronomy and the ways the planets are arranged and how they move. That would be your starting point. That would be quite complex. Once you have those calculations, then it could be done in Excel. However the planets are constantly moving, and all at different speeds and taking different amounts of time to orbit the Sun and having various quirks into their movements.You would need to know a lot about astronomy and the ways the planets are arranged and how they move.

How are planets different?
There are many ways the planets are different. One way is that they all have different gravity levels, they are all different shapes and sizes. Lastly that they are different temperature, and different material.
Describe different types of muscles the major muscles and how they move?
they move in different ways cardic voluntary and involuntary. they move in different ways cardic voluntary and involuntary.
Two ways in which Pluto is different from the outer planets?
It is extremely small and it has no rings!
Are there other stars that have planets apart from the sun?
Scientists used to wonder; are planets rare, or are they common? Arguments went both ways. But over the past 10 years or so, we have discovered over 300 planets orbiting other stars. With the rapid improvement in space-based telescopes and better image processing software, it begins to look like planets, and planetary systems, may be the norm; that single stars without planets may be the unusual case.
