MOSTLY the first law: Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it. This is not the only reason, there are also more. What happens is that in the case of the Earth orbiting the Sun, the Earth wants to go in a straight line tangent to its orbit at any given moment, but the reason why is goes in a "circle" is because the Sun's gravity is pulling the Earth toward it. The Earth doesn't plummet into the Sun because the balance between the Earth's velocity, the distance from the Earth to the Sun and the strength of the Sun's gravity.
Newton's "law" of universal gravitation ... not one of the Big Three ... describes
orbital shapes and motion, and generates all three of Kepler's Laws of planetary
motion.

second law of motion and Newton's law of universal gravitation.

What are the 2 factors that newton realized that keep the earth in orbit around the sun and the moon in orbit around the earth?
Newton realized that gravity keeps bodies in orbit around each other. That's the only factor that's necessary, which is lucky, because that's the only one that exists.

orbit
How did Sir Isaac Newton help with the scientific method?
Newton could be called the father of Mathematical Physics. Newton's helped explain the underlying "laws" that produced the observations of Kepler and predicted the return of Haley's Comet. Newton introduced used the of idea of a cause and effect to explain the work of other scientists. Many people saw the apple fall but Newton asked How and Why it did not fall up?
