What else can I help you with?
Are there moons orbiting around the planet?
Yes, Neptune has 13 moons.In order of orbital distance from Neptune, they are :NaiadThalassaDespinaGalateaLarisaaProteusTritonNereidHalimedeSaoLaomedeiaPsamatheNeso
How did Galileo's oberservations of Jupiter's moons help to show that the geocentric explination is incorrect?
He discovered that they orbit around Jupiter, the first example of anything that did not orbit round the Earth, which lent support to the idea that the Sun might be at the centre of the solar system. After Galileo's lifetime, with further scientific discoveries, this was discovered to be true
Is it true that the earth has an orbit of 28 days?
No, The earth's orbit is slightly over 365 days
Is True or false Earths path or orbit around the sun is its rotation?
False. Earth's path or orbit around the Sun is called its revolution, not rotation. Rotation refers to the spinning of Earth on its axis, which causes day and night, while revolution refers to the Earth's journey around the Sun, which takes about 365.25 days to complete.
Is it true seasons are a result of earth's tilted orbit?
No. Earth's orbit is NOT tilted. Earth orbits the Sun in the same plane as the rest of the planets. What IS tilted is Earth's axis of spin (as compared to the plane of its orbit), It is this tilt of this axis that causes the seasons as Earth makes its annual orbit of the Sun.
Are there moons orbiting around the planet?
Yes, Neptune has 13 moons.In order of orbital distance from Neptune, they are :NaiadThalassaDespinaGalateaLarisaaProteusTritonNereidHalimedeSaoLaomedeiaPsamatheNeso
Is it true that seasonal variation is caused by the earth's eliptical orbit around the sun?
No, it is not.
How is the moon different from a planet?
the moons orbit the planet but the planets orbit the sunMoons revolve round planets. Planets revolve round suns.___________AlternateThe truth is that planets orbit round their moons, or more precisely a planet and its moon(s) orbit around their barycenter, the center of gravity of the planet-moon system. This is true for the earth, but this orbital motion of earth is less noticeable than the orbital motion of the smaller moon. I think the real difference between planets and their moons is relative size.
Saturn takes 30 years to orbit the sun True or False?
True. Saturn takes approximately 29.5 Earth years to complete one orbit around the sun.
True or false because of its velocity and the pull of gravity the moon stays in orbit around the earth?
True. The moon stays in orbit around the Earth due to the balance between its velocity, which propels it forward, and the gravitational pull of the Earth, which draws it inward. This interplay creates a stable orbit, preventing the moon from either flying away into space or crashing into the Earth.

Why is moon called a satellite not a planet?
The Moon is called a satellite because it orbits around a larger celestial body, in this case, Earth. Planets, on the other hand, are celestial bodies that orbit around a star, like the Sun. Since the Moon orbits around Earth, it is considered a natural satellite rather than a planet.
Is it true all terrestrial planets have many moons?
no. Earth and Mars are the only terrestrials with moons.
Is it true that the earth goes around the sun?
The Earth travels around the sun by gravity.
Gravity provides a centripetal force on the Moon helping it stay in orbit around Earth?
Correct! The force of gravity between the Earth and the Moon acts as a centripetal force, keeping the Moon in its orbit around the Earth. This balance between gravity and the Moon's inertia allows it to continuously move in a circular path around the Earth.
Is it true the first person to orbit earth was Yuri gagarin?
Yes, it is true.
