Does the sun rise on the left and set on the right?

Answer 1

It spins to the right of the sun.

Another viewpoint:

The plane of the Sun's equator is tilted by just a few degrees to the plane of the Earth's orbit.

So, the Earth revolves around the Sun roughly in the plane containing the Sun's equator.

The Earth certainly does not orbit over the Poles of the Sun.

Whether Earth orbits to "left or right" depends on the how you look at the orbit.

Also, it's better to use the words "clockwise" and "counterclockwise" (anticlockwise).

When viewed from above the Earth's North Pole, the Earth revolves around the Sun in a counterclockwise direction.

Answer 2

Everywhere on earth, the sun appears to move across the sky from east to west.

That motion may appear to be toward your left or toward your right, depending on

which way you happen to be facing.

Similarly, every point on earth is either north or south of the equator. That direction

may appear to be above or below the equator depending on which way your map

happens to be spread out on the table, and on whether you happen to be standing,

prone, supine, etc.

Answer 3

There is no such thing as up and down in space, so it just revolves around the sun.

Answer 4

Only if you face south. If you face any other direction it won't.

Better to say that the Sun rise to the East and sets to the West.

Answer 5

Above and below are concepts which don't really apply when you are not standing on the surface of the Earth. We define 'down' as towards the centre of the Earth.

Answer 6

The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. The direction in which the sun rises and sets can vary depending on your location and the time of year.
