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 the moons orbit around the sun?
No, moons do not orbit the sun directly; they orbit planets. As planets revolve around the sun, their moons follow elliptical paths around them. This means that while moons are indirectly influenced by the sun's gravity through their parent planets, they are primarily in orbit around those planets.
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.
How many planets orbit around Mars?
No planets orbit around Mars. There are two moons that orbit around Mars.
Do the moons of Saturn orbit Saturn on the Rings of Saturn?
No, the moons of Saturn do not orbit on the rings of Saturn. The moons orbit around Saturn in separate paths. The rings of Saturn are made up of small particles of ice and rock that orbit around Saturn along a flat plane.

How many moons orbit around the planet Uranus?
27 moons orbit Uranus that we know of
What is the number of moons that orbit around Jupiter?
16 moons
Why are there no moons around moons?
Most moons orbit close enough to their planets that the planet's gravity would render any orbit around a moon unstable in the long term.
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.
Does any planet orbit Jupiter?
No, planets orbit around the sun. There are over 60 moons that orbit around Jupiter though.
How many planets orbit around Mars?
No planets orbit around Mars. There are two moons that orbit around Mars.
How many moons in the Solar System orbit around the planets?

How many moons are orbiting Venus's?

Is the moons orbit around earth absolutely straight with respect to earths orbit around the sun?
no
