Planets in our solar system typically orbit the Sun in a counterclockwise direction when viewed from above the solar system. This is known as prograde motion. However, some objects, such as comets and moons, may have retrograde orbits, moving in a clockwise direction.

In what direction did the tropical cyclone move?
The planets orbit the sun in an anti-clockwise fashion if we were to view the solar system from over the north pole of the sun.

The moon goes in the direction of its orbit
The suns gravitational pull forces them to move in one direction
That depends upon the direction in which it is facing when it turns its engine on. If it faces the direction in which it is already moving, the added speed will cause it to move to a higher orbit. If it faces against the direction in which it is moving to slow down, it will move to a lower orbit (or re-enter the atmosphere). If it faces any other direction, its orbit will change in various other ways.
Its something about their orbit, but only scientists know the exact thing
No, planets in our solar system all orbit the Sun in the same counterclockwise direction as the Sun rotates on its axis.
False. While most comets orbit the Sun in the same direction as the planets (counterclockwise when viewed from above Earth's North Pole), there are exceptions. Some comets have retrograde orbits, meaning they orbit in the opposite direction of the planets.
The direction of the Earth's spin and the direction of the Moon's orbit is the same - counterclockwise
counterclockwise
Answer: It is called a revolution. Answer: The verb "orbit" can also used as a verb. "To orbit" means "to move around something, in an orbit".
All the planets do orbit the sun in the same direction. However, as we orbit the sun quicker than the planets further out from us, and slower than the ones inside us they do at times appear to be moving the other direction.
