Dose the sun move in the sky?
The earth orbits round the sun, whilst spinning at the same time, so when the sun sets, its just because we have spun round so we are not facing it. when the sun rises, its because the earth has spun back around to face it. so no the sun stays in the same place, the earth moves.
How many functional satellites orbit earth?
At present there are around 24-32 satellites orbiting in medium earth orbit(11,000 miles)more the satellites more accurate navigation is produced.
Does the moon orbit around itself?
The moon rotates around its own axis, but revolves around the earth. The moon completes one rotation with each revolution around the earth, so one day on the moon (sunrise to sunrise) is equal to one month on earth. This coincidence is the reason only one side of the moon is always facing the earth.
Can you prove the moon goes round the earth?
Yes Yes, you can because the N.A.S.A prgram has a satellite in space and they can monitor the planets and the moon, so yes you can prove that the moon goes around the earth and the moon is always in the sky every night. =]]] Depends from where you look. According to the Einstein's theory of relativity ... If you stand on the moon, you will find the earth orbiting the moon and so the other heavenly bodies... BUT Earth, being greater in mass... almost 5 times more than our moon ... the total gravitational force of earth is more than that of the moon... almost 5 times more... Hence we consider that the moon is orbiting the earth. Because, generally, More the mass, more stable the object. So if we consider that the earth, having 5 times more mass than moon, as stable or stationary... We conclude that the moon orbits the earth.... But I feel Einstein's Theory of relativity more accurate. Also if we view the phenomenon from the sun, we will find that the moon orbiting the earth, because earth is orbiting the sun...IF WE ASSUME THAT TOO.........ACCORDING TO THE MORE MASS ... MORE STABILITY TECHNIQUE.

A+ true.
What planets are there around the Earth?
There are no planets orbiting Earth.
What force is responsible for the moon orbiting around the earth and earth orbiting around the sun?
The force of gravity causes the moon to orbit the Earth, and the Earth to orbit the sun.
What is a large lump of rock orbiting around the earth called?

Space orbiting telescopes are found where?
Usually orbiting Earth, that is, in an orbit around Earth, but fairly close to Earth - a few 100 km. distance from Earth's surface, at most.Usually orbiting Earth, that is, in an orbit around Earth, but fairly close to Earth - a few 100 km. distance from Earth's surface, at most.Usually orbiting Earth, that is, in an orbit around Earth, but fairly close to Earth - a few 100 km. distance from Earth's surface, at most.Usually orbiting Earth, that is, in an orbit around Earth, but fairly close to Earth - a few 100 km. distance from Earth's surface, at most.
What is in orbit with the Earth?
The moon. The earth is in orbit around the sun, but the moon goes with it, orbiting the earth directly and orbiting the sun indirectly.
When does the moon rotate around the sun?
All the time. (The moon is actually orbiting around the Earth, which is orbiting around the sun)
How was the moons discovered while orbiting the earth?
They were orbiting or looking around to see what was around the Earth and they saw the moon an claimed it ours?! Well that's my guess
Around what does earth revolve?
The Earth revolves around its axis, an imaginary line running through the centre of the Earth from the North pole to the South pole. As an orbiting planet, its orbit takes it around the Sun once every year.
Does the moon rotate around the earth while the earth is orbiting around the sun?
Yep, you got it.
How many moons are in the earth?
There is no moon IN the Earth. There is one moon ORBITING AROUND Earth.
What is movement of the earth around the sun called?
When the Earth moves around the Sun, we say that it is orbiting the Sun.
