There is no gravity in space so they just sort of float and every planet orbits around the sun and also helps them stay in place
planets stay in the sky due to the pull of gravity
The Moon, Sun and planets all appear in a strip of sky called the ecliptic. It is a plane defined by the plane of the Earth's orbit and the Sun is always on the ecliptic, while the Moon and planets stay close to it.
Of course you can draw a planet in a constellation, and it will stay there - on the paper. But in the real sky, the planets will not stay in any constellation for a long time. They move around.To track the current position of a planet, nowadays you can use some software, for example, "Redshift".Of course you can draw a planet in a constellation, and it will stay there - on the paper.

Of course you can draw it on paper and it will stay there. But then it won't reflect the real sky; planets change from one constellation to another, sometimes within weeks or so.
Yes and no because when you look up in the sky some of those stars are planets but techinacally they aren't stars.
It is because that they are made up of water vapor (which is a form of gas) and it is light hence it stay up in the sky as long as they don't get heavy and rain.
Mars Venus and Saturn
All of the planets orbit the sun at different rates, closer planets orbit quickly, while further planets orbit more slowly. They are all more or less on the same plane, so their paths in the sky will be similar to each other as the earth rotates. They sometimes appear to line up in the sky every now and then as they orbit at their different rates.
You can't
We're in it's sky, not the sun in ours. And we're in orbit around it.
The app is called SkyView.
because he wanted to know a way to look at the night sky and the planets up in full detail and much much closer because he was imensly interested in Astronomy and wanted to study the planets.
