The Earth moves in an elliptical orbit round the Sun, this motion was imparted to all planets in the Solar System (and the axial revolution of the Sun) by the rotational moment in the Nebular form which our Solar System formed.

When does the earth moves most rapidly around its orbit?

The earth moves most rapidly in its orbit around the sun at perihelion, when it is closest to the sun. That occurs some time during the first few days of January.


Is the speed constant?

The moon has an elliptical orbit around the Earth, although it is almost circular; when the moon is at the closest point to the Earth in its orbit, it moves the fastest, and when it is at the most distant point, it moves the slowest. But the variation is relatively small.


How moon moves?

The moon moves in its orbit around the Earth due to the gravitational force between the two bodies. This orbit is not circular but elliptical, causing the moon's distance from Earth to vary. Additionally, the moon rotates on its axis at the same rate that it orbits the Earth, resulting in the same side of the moon always facing Earth.
