all the planets stay in orbit around the sun because of the sun's gravitational pull. The high orbital speed that keeps the planets from falling all the way into the sun and since there is no friction in the vacuum of space , that speed dosen't slow down.

How are planets kept in their orbits as they revolve around the sun?

All the planets stay in orbit around the sun because of the sun's gravitational pull. Now you are probably wondering why the planets don't all get sucked into the sun,well it is the high orbital speed that keeps the planets from falling all the way into the Sun and since there is no friction in the vacuum of space, that speed doesn't slow down.


Why do all the planets orbit?

Planets orbit around the Sun because of the Sun's gravitational force, it makes the planets move by its gravitational force.


Do all planets have an orbit?

Yes all planets have a orbit
