What else can I help you with?
Do planets share the same orbit?
No, planets do not share the same orbit. Each planet in our solar system travels along its own distinct path around the Sun. The varying distances and speeds of planets in their orbits prevent them from sharing the same orbit.
What is it called when two planets switch orbit?
planets dont "switch" orbit, but there are those that orbit each other, and those, like mars, that have retrograde motion, which makes it appear to orbit backwards
What is the shape of the orbitof planets?
The ellipse is, with the sun at one focus of each planetary orbit.
How are the planets held in orbit?
Planets are held in orbit around the sun by gravity, which is the force of attraction between objects. The sun's gravitational force keeps planets moving in a curved path around it. The speed of the planet's movement and the gravitational pull of the sun balance each other to keep the planet in a stable orbit.
Do constellations orbit planets and if they do what ones?
Constellations do not orbit planets. Constellations are apparent groupings of stars as seen from Earth, and they are fixed in their position relative to each other. They appear to move across the sky due to the Earth's rotation.
Do planets share the same orbit?
No, planets do not share the same orbit. Each planet in our solar system travels along its own distinct path around the Sun. The varying distances and speeds of planets in their orbits prevent them from sharing the same orbit.
Does each of the eight planets in our solar system have its own orbit?
Yes, each of the 8 major planets has its own orbit, with no asteroids or other objects in its path.
How many steps did the eight planets take to finished around the orbit?
Planets do not take steps. Each planet has its own orbit and is is different.
What is shared by all the planets in the solar system?
The sun, each of the eight planets is in orbit around our sun.
When does Pluto cross?
None of the eight planets has an orbit that crossesanother. Dwarf planets (which include Pluto) and Dwarf Planet candidates do cross orbits of planets and each
Do The planets maintain circular orbits around the Sun?
The orbit of the planets in our Solar system are not perfectly circular, but eliptical. Each planet also has its own unique orbit, no two planets share an identical orbit. Because of the elliptical (oval) orbit of planets some get close to each other or cross the path of another planet's orbit.
What is each planets path around the sun?
orbit
Why there is only planet in each orbit around the sun?
In the case of our solar system, each of the eight major planets are sufficiently large in mass to have absorbed or expelled other matter from their orbital paths; this has precluded the formation of multiple planets in each orbit. Indeed, the current definition of a "planet" used by the IAU requires a body to have done this in order to be called a "planet." Other bodies, such as asteroids and dwarf planets, do share their orbits in whole or in part with other bodies. Some have suggested that the Moon is so large in relation to the Earth that the Earth and Moon could be considered a double planet system rather than a planet/satellite system. (The same was true of Pluto and Charon before Pluto was redefined as a dwarf planet.) This is not a widespread view, but in other solar systems double planets are thought to be quite common. Double planets orbit each other while orbiting their central star(s). In this situation, both planets would share an orbit around the star. There are small bodies called "Trojan asteroids" that share an orbit around the Sun with Jupiter and Saturn. Jupiter's and Saturn's gravity keep these asteroids in fixed positions.
Do any planets collide in orbit?
No they each have its own orbit around the sun and they do not collide
What from the sun holds the planets in orbit?
The Sun AND its planets attract each other with gravitic force.
What is the movement of earth and the other eight planets around the sun?
The most common type of orbit is a circle but depending on the size, mass, density of that planet and the orbit of others but the orbit so far found by Astromoners and Scientists alike are all circle based.In there title don't you mean What is the movement of earth and the other eight seven planets and many dwarf planets around the sun?
Why are the orbit of the planets different?
So they don't run into each other.
