Why do the planets revolve around the sun in the same direction?
The planets in our solar system all travel in the same direction around the Sun due to the way our solar system formed from a rotating disk of gas and dust. This rotation set the initial direction of the planets' orbits, resulting in them all moving in the same counterclockwise direction when viewed from above the solar system.
Do planets move around the sun in the opposite direction then the sun turns?
No, planets in our solar system all orbit the Sun in the same counterclockwise direction as the Sun rotates on its axis.
What is the direction of Mars' revolution around the Sun?
Seen from a vantage point over the "north pole" of the Sun, all the planets in our solar system orbit in an anti-clockwise direction.
What planet has to do with the sun?
All the planets in our solar system, including Earth, revolve around the Sun. The gravitational pull from the Sun keeps the planets in their orbit, moving around it in a specific path.
What keeps the planets from being pulled into the sun?
The planets are kept in orbit around the sun due to the gravitational force between them. This force, which is a balance between the planet's inertia and the sun's gravitational pull, keeps the planets moving in a stable path around the sun.
Are you moving around the sun or it is the sun that moves around the planets?
The planets are considered moving around the sun, even though the sun moves too (in tiny circles opposite the planets' motions). The planets are circling the sun. The sun (dragging the planets along with it) is circling our galaxy's center. Our galaxy (dragging the sun, the planets, and all the other stars) is moving through the universe as well.

Do planets move around the Sun in the opposite direction to that in which the Sun turns?
No
Do planets move around the sun in the opposite direction then the sun turns?
No, planets in our solar system all orbit the Sun in the same counterclockwise direction as the Sun rotates on its axis.
What direction do almost all of the planets travel as they go around the sun?
All the planets revolve around the Sun in a counterclockwise direction, as seen from above the Earth's north pole.
What keeps the planets moving their orbit around the sun?
The pull of the Sun's gravity.
Why do all planets orbit around the Sun in the same major direction?
Gravity
What is the direction of Mars' revolution around the Sun?
Seen from a vantage point over the "north pole" of the Sun, all the planets in our solar system orbit in an anti-clockwise direction.

Which direction do all planets revolve?
All planets in our Solar System, viewed from above our North Pole, revolve around the Sun in an anti clockwise direction.
How does gravity between the sun and planets control the path the planets make around the sun?
The sizes of the Sun and planets determine the strength of gravitational pull of the planets on each other and the Sun. The Sun's mass is so great that the planets can't escape from the Sun's pull and so as the planets are moving by the Sun pulls them back into orbit.
How does the force of gravity affect the direction of motion of the planets?
earths rotation around the sun
