What else can I help you with?
Which celestial bodies orbit the Sun?
the asteroid belt, the kuiper belt, and the oort cloud.
What does the sun's gravitational pull keep in orbit?
Planets, asteroids, meteors, comets, moons (which are also in orbit around their respective planets), dust particles, interplanetary gas.
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.
How many objects orbit the Sun?
There are eight recognized planets in our solar system that orbit the Sun, along with their moons, dwarf planets, asteroids, comets, and other space debris. Overall, there are millions of objects that are known to orbit the Sun.
What is the similarity between an asteroid and a planet?
Both asteroids and planets are objects that orbit the sun.
Do most asteroids orbit in the same direction as planets?
Yes asteroids orbit the sun counter-clockwise, just like all the planets
Which celestial bodies orbit the Sun?
the asteroid belt, the kuiper belt, and the oort cloud.
What do asteroids do around the sun and planets?
orbit
What are tiny planets that orbit between Mars and Jupiter called?
Tiny planets that orbit between Mars and Jupiter are called asteroids.
What the asteroids are larger or smaller than planets?
Planets are generally larger than asteroids. Asteroids are small rocky bodies that orbit the Sun, while planets are larger celestial objects that have cleared their orbit of other debris. Some asteroids can be quite large, but they are still dwarfed by the size of planets.
What does Pluto not have that planets do?
Pluto does not have an orbit clear of asteroids and debris. Planets do.
What does the sun's gravitational pull keep in orbit?
Planets, asteroids, meteors, comets, moons (which are also in orbit around their respective planets), dust particles, interplanetary gas.
What orbit the Sun like planets do?
Asteroids, Comets
What are the object that orbit the sun?
ASTEROIDS
Do moons and asteroids orbit the sun?
Asteroids orbit the sun. Moons orbit planets and planets orbit the sun. So you could say the moons orbit the sun. However, moons are kept in their orbits by the gravity of their planet and planets are kept in orbit by the gravity of the sun. So in that sense, moons do not orbit the sun.
What tiny planets orbit between Jupiter and mars?
Asteroids
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.
