What else can I help you with?
Why does the space shuttle's orbit apparently follow a wave pattern?
I think you mean, :why does the orbit of satellites, etc. look like a sine wave? Well, every orbit around the earth looks like a circular (or elliptical ring) whose center (or focus) is at the center of the earth. An orbit exactly above the equator is one such orbit, but any orbit can be tilted as long as the center (or focus) stays at the earth's center and the whole orbit is flat like a disk. On various maps this makes the orbit look like a wave, but on a globe it stays a flat circle (or ellipse).
What does the orbit of a planet look like?
The orbit of a planet is an ellipse with the Sun at one of its foci. This means the shape of the orbit is similar to a slightly flattened circle. The orbiting planet will travel along this path due to the gravitational pull of the Sun.
Why is the ISS not in a circular orbit?
It just looks like that, when the orbit is placed in a flat map. Like take a globe and flatten it, everything will be different from what it originally was. Here's a link to read about that. https://www.scienceabc.com/eyeopeners/why-do-satellites-orbits-look-like-a-sinusoidal-wave-on-the-world-map.html
Why are the electrons held in orbit?
Because they are the outer electrons in an atom and they orbit around the nucleus. But you should ask a scientist this question. NOT put it on ask.com. OR look it up on google.com. it is very likely that you will find something there.
What is the name of the first planet in the solar system?
Oh, what a joyful question! The first planet in our solar system is our lovely neighbor, Mercury. It dances beautifully close to the sun, painting a colorful picture in our cosmic sky. Ah, look how it brings harmony to our celestial family! Good job on asking such an inspiring question!
What does the Earth's path around the moon look like?
The Moon's orbit around the Earth is an ellipse. The Earth doesn't go around the Moon at all.
What does Mercury look like from its surface?

What caused mercury's surface to look like it does?

What does a mercury 1944 dime look like?

What are the things that orbit around the some planets?
The things orbiting around some planets are things that look like meteors or asteroids. They are really large peices of Giant fecies.
Does mercury look like Uranus?
no but uranus is better
What is the symbol of mercury look like?
It looks like this
How does the moon continue to orbit around the sun?
well first look on google! (:
How did rings form on Saturn?
THe Saturn Rings are a "Belt" of asteroids that have all found a similar orbit around Saturn. They are made after a collection of asteroids fall into the same orbit, and when observed from a distance, look like the classic "rings".
What does Mercury planet look from Space?
From here on Earth, Mercury appears as a bright star. From orbit, it is a highly-cratered surface similar to the Moon. There is a large crater called the Caloris Basin, about 1500 km in width.
