An orbit.
An orbit is the curved path followed by an object around a central body in space due to their gravitational interaction. It is the trajectory that an object, such as a planet or satellite, follows as it revolves around another object.
An orbit is formed when an object is moving in a curved path around another object due to the gravitational pull between them. The two motions involved in an orbit are the object's forward motion (tangential velocity) and the pull of gravity keeping it in a curved path (centripetal force).
If the revolving continues for more than a few revolutions, then its path is an elliptical orbit. In space, orbiting cannot take place in a circular path, and the balance point between flying off into space, crashing into the bigger object, or staying in orbit only occurs in an ellipse. It doesn't have to be much of an ellipse, either.
The motion is called an "orbit."An astronomical object that is revolving around another object is called a satellite. A natural satellite of a planet is a moon (if comparatively small, moonlet).
Orbit is the term used to describe the curved path that a planet follows as it revolves around another body, such as a star. Orbits are typically elliptical in shape, with the body being orbited located at one of the foci of the ellipse. Orbits are governed by the gravitational pull between the two bodies, with the more massive body at the center of the orbit.
The curved path that an object follows as it revolves around another object is called an orbit. Orbits can be elliptical, circular, or parabolic depending on the gravitational forces acting on the objects involved.
An object moving in a straight line maintains a constant direction from its starting point. An object moving in a curved trajectory is following a path that is not straight and may be influenced by another object's gravitational pull or magnetic field.

A curved path around an object. Refers to the path of a Satellite or the surrounding area of the eye.
The third path of an object orbiting another is known as a heliocentric orbit around the Sun or a geocentric orbit around the Earth. It follows an elliptical trajectory, with the object moving in a curved path due to the gravitational pull of the larger body it orbits.
The path is the orbit
An object orbits another object due to gravity, which is the force of attraction between the two objects. The orbital motion is a result of the balance between the object's inertia wanting to move straight and the gravitational pull pulling it in a curved path.
Orbit
An object moving in a curved path affected only by gravity is called a projectile.
A curved path followed by a projectile is called a trajectory. This is the path that an object takes when it is thrown or launched into the air.
The curved path is called projectile motion.
