Laws of Planetary Motion by Johannes Kepler, published 1618.
He used the reflecting telescope and calculus to map the orbits of planets and satellites.
the moon orbits around the planet, not the other way around; gravity keeps it orbiting
Calculus -- instantaneous changes. Binomial theorem, logarithms, ellipses for orbits of planets, and many others.
In our solar system, all celestial bodies that are in orbit around the Sun have the Sun as one of the foci of their elliptical orbits. This includes planets, dwarf planets, asteroids, comets, and other small solar system bodies. According to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, these orbits are not perfect circles, but elliptical, with the Sun located at one of the two foci. Thus, any object bound by the Sun's gravity follows this orbital pattern.
Centripetal force is the inward force required to keep an object moving in a circular path, and for planets, this force is primarily provided by gravity. As planets orbit a star, such as the Sun, the gravitational attraction acts as the centripetal force, pulling them towards the star while their orbital velocity keeps them in motion. This balance between gravitational pull and orbital speed allows planets to maintain stable orbits. Thus, centripetal force is essential for the dynamics of planetary motion in a solar system.
Kepler's first law of planetary motion published in 1618 says that the planets travel in elliptical orbits with the Sun at one focus. Newton's law of gravity and other work he did explains how the Sun's gravity produces ellpitical orbits.
the law of sun explains it
Newton's Law of Gravitation.
Kepler's 1st law states that the orbits of the planets around the sun and makes an ellipse. This is taught in astronomy.

It explains why the planets remain in in orbit around the sun. Also, why moons orbit their planets. It also explains why humans remain on earth.

My balls. They lay a nuclear active radiated gas that explains the whole theory.
yes it is 99.99% the same as we have estimated the orbits of the planets using newton's and Kepler's law and they cant be wrong
The planets revolve in elliptical orbits. The inner planets have orbits 230 million km or less from the Sun. The outer planets have orbits 775 million km or greater.
Johannes Kepler expanded on Copernicus' heliocentric theory by introducing the laws of planetary motion, which described the elliptical orbits of planets around the Sun. He formulated three key laws: the Law of Ellipses, stating that planets move in elliptical orbits; the Law of Equal Areas, which explains that a line connecting a planet to the Sun sweeps out equal areas in equal times; and the Law of Harmonies, relating the orbital periods of planets to their distances from the Sun. These contributions provided a more accurate and comprehensive understanding of planetary motion, supporting the Copernican model.
Gravity from the Sun holds the planets in their orbits.
