What else can I help you with?
All comets orbit the Sun in the same direction as the planets?
False. While most comets orbit the Sun in the same direction as the planets (counterclockwise when viewed from above Earth's North Pole), there are exceptions. Some comets have retrograde orbits, meaning they orbit in the opposite direction of the planets.
Do the stars orbit the planets or do planets orbit stars?
Moons orbit planets. Planets orbit stars. Some stars orbit other stars, or orbit their mutual center of gravity. Stars orbit the center of the galaxy. Galaxies may orbit the center of the "galactic group".
What planet do all the planets evolve around?
I am not familiar with planets evolving around any singular planet. If you are referring to orbit, the planets orbit the sun, a star, not a planet, in our solar system. Some planets have moons in their orbit.
What do planets do?
Planets orbit around a star, like our Sun, and are an integral part of a solar system. They vary in size, composition, and atmosphere, with some capable of supporting life. Planets also have gravitational influence on other objects in their vicinity.
How many planets have gravity?
All planets have gravity to some degree due to their mass. Gravity is what keeps objects, including planets, in orbit around the sun.
Why do some planets take a long time to orbit around the sun?
Some planets take longer to orbit the sun because they are farther away giving them a longer path to travel.
Why do some plants have longer years than earth?
A year for a planet is the time it takes for that planet to orbit the sun. Some planets take longer to orbit the sun because they are farther away from the sun than Earth, so those planets have a farther distance to cover to orbit the sun once than the Earth does.
All comets orbit the Sun in the same direction as the planets?
False. While most comets orbit the Sun in the same direction as the planets (counterclockwise when viewed from above Earth's North Pole), there are exceptions. Some comets have retrograde orbits, meaning they orbit in the opposite direction of the planets.
Which planets move in an elliptical pattern?
They all do. Some planets are closer to a circular orbit than others (have a lower eccentricity), but none are exactly circular.
Could a star orbit a planet larger then itself?
well for starters, stars don't orbit planets. Planets orbit stars, but some stars don't have planets that orbit them.
Do the stars orbit the planets or do planets orbit stars?
Moons orbit planets. Planets orbit stars. Some stars orbit other stars, or orbit their mutual center of gravity. Stars orbit the center of the galaxy. Galaxies may orbit the center of the "galactic group".
Why does the length of a day and year vary from planet to planet?
Some planets rotate faster or than others. Also the planets take different times to orbit the Sun.
Do planets orbit fast or slow if so which ones?
The close-in ones move fast, the far-out ones move slower. It's governed by Kepler's third law.
What planet has a tilted axis so that the planet has seasons .?
All planets have seasons. Some have longer and shorter seasons then others. On some planets a day is longer then its season. Of the "inner planets" only Earth and Mars have large enough tilts to give significant seasonal effects.
Do planets orbit the sun in a circular direction?
No. Planets orbit the Sun (or some other star) in ellipses.
Do all moons orbit a planet?
All known moons. But in theory, there could be a moon orbiting a larger moon, if the large moon was far enough away from the planet.
Is it true some planets orbit Jupiter?
yes
