The gravitational force.
Can an object stay in orbit around Saturn somewhere else besides the rings
Its forward motion. Please understand that something in orbit IS falling towards Earth.
I don't think you understand the gravity of this situation!!
Planets stay in orbit around the sun due to a balance between the gravitational force pulling them towards the sun and their own momentum carrying them forward. This balance allows planets to maintain a stable orbit without being pulled into the sun or flung out into space.
The gravitational force between the planet and the sun causes the planet to orbit the sun, keeping it in a continuous path. Additionally, the planet's inertia, or tendency to continue moving in a straight line, causes it to stay in motion around the sun.
Stay in orbit
Earth's gravitational pull. See attached link for more information.
its falling and it has interia
Yes, the gravity of the sun causes all celestial bodies to orbit around.
it is a force called gravity.

you need to stay away from plants that causes bugs. Kevin K
They stay there because there is nothing to disturb them. They go round and round, with the gravitational force from the sun exactly balanced by an acceleration directed towards the Sun, but their forward velocities stop them falling into the sun, they only curve a little towards it all the time. After a few billion years everything has settled down into a steady routine.
all
The moons stay in orbit around Jupiter due to the gravitational pull of the planet. As of June 2014, Jupiter has 63 known moons.
The reason that satellites stay in orbit around Earth is because of two factors. Velocity and the gravitational pull between the satellite and the Earth.
A Geostationary orbit - it means that the satellite will always stay above the same point on Earth. Hope that helps
