The sun is in the milky way galaxy. In the center of the galaxy is a huge black hole that holds the billions of star up. If you do not believe me go to the videos about How The Universe Works. It clearly shows proof.
Mercury doesn't blow up because its gravity holds it together. Although it's very close to the Sun, Mercury's small size and mass mean that it can withstand the heat and radiation from the Sun without "blowing up.".
They are held by the force of gravity, specifically the gravitational pull of the Sun. Just as gravity holds people to the Earth's surface, and the Earth holds space stations in orbit, so the Sun holds the planets in their orbits. The orbital velocity of the planets (momentum) keeps them from falling into the Sun, while the Sun keeps them from flying off into space. This combination of counteracting forces also keeps the Earth its current distance from the Sun. Mercury, closer to the Sun, travels more quickly to balance the stronger pull of the Sun.
gravity. the mass of the sun is so large that it is able to pull in all the planets and what not
The gravitational force between the planet and the sun is what holds the planet in orbit around the sun. This force keeps the planet moving in a curved path around the sun, in balance with the planet's inertia.
The answer to this question is 'Gravity.' The Sun's gravity causes the rest of the solar system to orbit around it.
we have outer space because what else is going to hold the planets up and not let them fall forever, that's what our sun does, and outer space holds the sun up
The sun's gravity holds the planets in their orbits. It also holds other space objects in their orbits, such as asteroids.
Gravity :) (Gravity also holds the outer planets tightly to the Sun.)
The sun is just a huge ball of hydrogen and helium. The heat created on the sun is from billions of hydrogen atoms smelting together to helium atoms. All these atoms are held together by the gravity.
the universe da !
It usually holds more water because of evaporation and makes the earth very hot.
It usually holds more water because of evaporation and makes the earth very hot.
the sun gives us heat and holds the earth in place with its gravity
the sun holds 98% of the solar system.
the sun holds the planets to getter by gravity and rotation
The Sun AND its planets attract each other with gravitic force.
the sun holds the planets in orbit.
