the atmosphere of gravity pulls it.
What else can I help you with?
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.
Are man made satellites held in orbit by the gravitational pull if a planet?
Yes, man-made satellites are held in orbit by the gravitational pull of a planet, such as Earth. The balance between the gravitational force pulling the satellite toward the planet and the satellite's inertia, which tries to move it in a straight line, creates a stable orbit. This interplay allows satellites to maintain their paths around the planet without falling back to the surface.
How the moon is held in the orbit around the earth?

Which of these is the sun's gravity not responsible for holding in orbit?
I believe your question is incomplete. You have forgotten to list the objects.
Why are moons natural satellites to planets?
Satellites are objects placed in orbit by human enterprise. Moons are natural satellites because they orbit planets or other smaller celestial bodies, but are formed in some way out side our control. IE: collisions, captured dwarf planets, or created out of the same Protoplanetary Disk as it's primary.
Why earths satellites are not attracted by sun?
They are, but are held in Earth's orbit because of their much closer position to the Earth.
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.
Why does the international space station travel around the earth?
For the same reason the moon, and all man-made satellites do - it's held in orbit by gravity !
Are man made satellites held in orbit by the gravitational pull if a planet?
Yes, man-made satellites are held in orbit by the gravitational pull of a planet, such as Earth. The balance between the gravitational force pulling the satellite toward the planet and the satellite's inertia, which tries to move it in a straight line, creates a stable orbit. This interplay allows satellites to maintain their paths around the planet without falling back to the surface.
Why is the moo n a satiligh?
The moon is often referred to as a natural satellite because it orbits the Earth, just as artificial satellites orbit the planet. It is held in its orbit by the Earth's gravitational pull, which keeps it in a stable path. Unlike artificial satellites, which are man-made and launched into space, the moon formed naturally and has been in orbit around Earth for billions of years. Its presence influences various phenomena on Earth, such as tides.
How the moon is held in the orbit around the earth?
gravity
Which source of gravity is maintaining all four satellites around the earth?
Satellites of the Earth are held in their orbits by the Earth's gravity. That includes the Moon and all the artificial satellites etc. that are up there.
Tiny planets that orbit?
Tiny planets that orbit larger planets are known as moons or natural satellites. These moons are held in orbit by the gravitational pull of the larger planet. Some examples include Earth's Moon orbiting around Earth and Phobos and Deimos orbiting around Mars.
What is the moon held in orbit by?
The moon is held in orbit around the Earth by gravity. The gravitational pull between the Earth and the moon keeps the moon moving in a consistent path around the Earth.
The earth revolves around the sun and the moon revolves around the earth the moon is held in orbit by the earth's is what called?
Every gravitational orbit is the result of the mutual gravitational forces between the orbiting bodies.
Is the space station rotating around earth?
Yes, it's held in orbit by gravity.
Why does the moon continue in its path around the Earth?
It is held in its orbit by the mutual gravitational attraction between the earth and the moon.
