How many times does the moon orbit the sun?

Answer 1

No one knows because no one was alive at the beginning so we can only guess how old the earth is. the moon goes around the earth once a day. the dinosaurs were born trillions of years ago, do the math!

Answer 2

none A Planet does not Orbit Around its Moon, Moon is the word given to a body that orbit around a Planet. __________________________ The earth and our moon orbit around each other, and in a more formal or accurate sense, they each orbit around what is called the barycenter. The barycenter can be thought of as the 'center of gravity' of a planet-moon system. Take the theoretical situation where a planet and its moon are of identical mass. Observing from the perspective of the distant stars, you would NOT see the 'planet' moving smoothely in its orbit around its sun, leaving the 'moon' to spiral in its orbit around the 'planet'. You would observe the two bodies spiraling around each other, almost as if they were attached by a tether. The point around which they orbit is the 'barycenter', the center of gravity of the two bodies taken as one. In the case of the earth and our moon, the mass of earth is so much greater that the barycenter is actually within the body of the earth. But it is not at the very center of the earth; it is much closer to the surface. You would still see a little wobble in earth's movement as it swings outward in its orbit around the barycenter. So the earth does, in a real sense, orbit the moon just as the moon orbits the earth. This barycenter concept is involved in the orbit of any body around any other body.

Answer 3

The moon makes its orbit around the earth every 28 days. The moon is approximately 280,000 miles away from the Earth.

Answer 4

As the Moon orbits the Earth, and the Earth orbits the Sun once a year, so does the Moon.

Answer 5

The moon does not orbit the sun; it orbits around the Earth. It completes approximately 13 orbits around the Earth in a year.
