The moons are around planets, planets are around the sun. But basically the orbit is a mix of forward momentum and the the pull towards the sun, this creats an angular movement. when the planet moves forward, this angular movement is now forward momentum and gravity is still pulling it towards the sun creating a angular movement and when added together this is roughly a circle that goes all around the sun.
What else can I help you with?
How many moons orbit around the sun?
There are 180 moons in our solar system.
Does the sun have any moons or rings?
A moon by definition has to orbit a planet - and the Sun is a star, not a planet. Also it has no rings.
How many moons make up the sun?
The Sun is a star and does not have any moons. Moons typically orbit around planets, not stars.
Why do the moons stay in orbit around Jupiter?
The moons stay in orbit around Jupiter due to the planet's strong gravitational pull. This gravitational force keeps the moons in check and prevents them from moving away into space. They orbit around Jupiter because of the balance between their inertia and the gravitational force pulling them towards the planet.
Dose the sun have a moon?
All the planets orbiting the sun can be called moons of the sun
How many moons do the suns have?
The Sun has no moons. Moons orbit Planets > Planets orbit the Sun.
Do moon orbits or circles the sun?
Moons orbit around its planet while the planets orbit the Sun, therefore moons circle the Sun.
Planets orbit around the sun but what do moons orbit?
Moons orbit around planets. They are natural satellites that are held in orbit by the planet's gravitational pull.
Do moons and asteroids orbit the sun?
Asteroids orbit the sun. Moons orbit planets and planets orbit the sun. So you could say the moons orbit the sun. However, moons are kept in their orbits by the gravity of their planet and planets are kept in orbit by the gravity of the sun. So in that sense, moons do not orbit the sun.
How many moons orbit around the sun?
There are 180 moons in our solar system.
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.
Is the moons orbit around earth absolutely straight with respect to earths orbit around the sun?
no
