What else can I help you with?
What is the Jupiter moons relative position from the sun?
They orbit Jupiter so would share that planets position in relation to the Sun.
What is a collection of bodies in space which orbit a star?
It is called a "planetary system" or "solar system" (the latter term is used alone or capitalized to mean the Sun's system of planets, moons, asteroids, meteoroids, and comets).
How is the moons orbit around the earth realted to an apple falling from the tree?
the gravitaional pull
Why must the inner planets orbit faster than the outer planets?
Precisely because: That's the way that gravity works.
What objects orbit Mars?
and Jupiter. There are lots of small bodies in direct orbit around the sun called the asteroids (the asteroid belt).
Who explained why planets stay in their orbit?
Sir Isac Newton was the scientist who discovered why the planets stay in orbit.
How many moons do the suns have?
The Sun has no moons. Moons orbit Planets > Planets orbit the Sun.
What was the name of the scientist who showed that gravity keeps planets and moons in orbit?
Isaac Newton
Does the moon revolve round the planets?
Moons orbit planets Or rather moons and planets orbit their barycenter.
Planets orbit around the sun but what do moons orbit?
Moons orbit around planets. They are natural satellites that are held in orbit by the planet's gravitational pull.
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 are moons?
Moons are satellites. They orbit planets.
Why are moons and planets different?
Planets are bodies that orbit a central star (in our case, the Sun), and moons are smaller bodies that orbit planets.
Do all the planets have smaller planets orbiting them?
No. Planets orbit suns, while moons orbit planets. Planets do not orbit planets.
Are the planets like moons to the sun?
The planets are satellites of the sun. The moons are satellites of the planets. The moons revolve around the planets captured by their gravity, while the planets revolve around the sun captured by its gravity and the sun.
What are solid objects that orbit the planets?
Solid objects that can orbit planets are called moons. Moons are natural satellites that orbit around planets in a similar way that planets orbit around stars. Moons can range in size from small rocky bodies to larger worlds with their own atmospheres.
Do planets and moons have stars?
On the contrary! A star has planets, which circulate it. And planets have moons. Stars do not circle planets.
