Can planets fall?
Yes. In our solar system the planets orbit the sun. The process of orbiting is a process of falling towards the sun, but their sideways speed is such that they continually miss (and thus end up going round) the Sun.So, yes planets can and do fall but they do not fall intothe sun. Thus from our viewpoint they do not appear to be falling.
Where does Venus fall in the order of planets from the sun?
Mercury, Venus, Earth. So 2nd Rock from the Sun
Why do the 8 planets keep orbiting the sun?
The 8 planets continue to orbit the sun due to a balance between the sun's gravitational pull and the planets' forward motion, which creates an elliptical orbit. This balance allows the planets to constantly move around the sun in a stable manner.
How do planets shine even if they are not luminous bodies?
They don't. They reflect light from the sun.
What makes your solar system?

How do planets orbit according to law?
The planets and the Sun orbit around each others common center of gravity referred to as the barycenter. Think of the planets as free falling objects. The Earth, as all of the other planets, are actually falling toward the center of the Sun's gravity. That is to say, for every one foot they fall toward the Sun, the Sun moves one foot out of the way.
Which of these planets has the shortest orbit compared to others?
mercury. Its the closest to the sun. i dont know the details :P
Are the planets like moons to the sun?
The planets are satellites of the sun. The moons are satellites of the planets. The moons revolve around the planets captured by their gravity, while the planets revolve around the sun captured by its gravity and the sun.
When do superior planets appear brightest?
Superior planets (those outside Earth's orbit) appear brightest when they are at opposition, which is when they are on the opposite side of Earth from the Sun. This is when they are closest to Earth and fully illuminated by the Sun.
