What else can I help you with?
What consists of a star and all of the bodies in orbit it?
a "solar system".
What orbits a star?
Planets, moons, comets, and asteroids can orbit a star. These celestial bodies are held in place by the gravitational pull of the star they orbit, following a specific path around it known as an orbit. The characteristics of an orbit, such as its shape and distance from the star, depend on the mass of the object and the gravitational force acting upon it.
What is true about planets and asteroids?
Planets are large celestial bodies that orbit a star and have cleared their orbit of other objects, while asteroids are smaller rocky or metallic bodies that also orbit a star but have not cleared their orbit. Planets are typically round due to their gravitational pull, while asteroids can have irregular shapes.
The size of a planet's orbit is determined by?
The size of a planet's orbit is primarily determined by its distance from the star it orbits, as well as the planet's mass and the characteristics of the star. The orbiting planet's velocity and gravitational interactions with other bodies in the system also play a role in determining the size of its orbit.
Do stars orbit the sun?
No, stars do not orbit the Sun. Stars are distant celestial bodies that have their own gravitational pull and are typically found in galaxies like the Milky Way. The Sun is just one star in the Milky Way galaxy, and it has its own set of planets and other objects orbiting around it.
What consists of a star and all bodies in orbit around it?
A star and all the bodies that orbit it is called a, "Star System". The star system that we live in has been named . . . we call it the Solar System, because the name of our star (The Sun) is "Sol".
What Planets are major bodies that orbit?
The sun.
What consist of a star and all the bodies in orbit around the star?
A solar system.
Why are moons and planets different?
Planets are bodies that orbit a central star (in our case, the Sun), and moons are smaller bodies that orbit planets.
What consists of a star and of the bodies in orbit around it?
A solar system.
What consists of a star and all of the bodies in orbit it?
a "solar system".
Is a moon considered a planet?
No, a moon is not considered a planet. Moons are natural satellites that orbit planets. Planets are celestial bodies that orbit a star and do not orbit other celestial bodies.
