What else can I help you with?
Does mars have an another planet orbiting it?
No. For one thing, a planet-like object that orbits a planet is a moon, not a planet. Mars does have two moons but they are captured asteroids, and would not be considered planets if the had their own orbits around the sun.
In the solar system the orbits of the planets are best describe as?
Planets revolve around the Sun. The Sun does not revolve or rotate around the planets. Planetary orbits are best described as an ellipse. Revolving is when the planet goes around the Sun. Rotating is when the planet spins on its own axis. The Earth does one revolution in 365 days but one rotation in 24 hours.
Which is the only planet that orbits the sun lying on its side?
The planet Uranus is the only planet in our solar system that orbits the sun lying on its side. This means that its axis is tilted at an angle of about 98 degrees relative to its orbit. As a result, Uranus experiences extreme seasons where one pole is in constant sunlight for half of its orbit, followed by a period of darkness.
What are the orbits of a planet called?
Each planet has one orbit that is just called the orbit of . . . .
What are the planets orbits?
The planets in our solar system orbit around the Sun in elliptical paths. Each planet follows its own unique orbit based on its distance from the Sun and gravitational interactions with other celestial bodies. The orbits are roughly aligned along the same plane known as the ecliptic.
What is the planet that titan orbits around?
Titan is one of Saturn's moons.

Is the moon a planet or a galaxy?
Neither -- the Moon is technically a satellite. It is in orbit around a planet. That planet orbits around a star. That star is one of billions of other stars which form a galaxy.

What is the difference between a moon and a planet?
a planet is much larger than a moon. sometimes a planet can have many moons but a moon can only have 1 planet. the moon orbits the planet but the planet orbits a star (such as the sun) ect.

Only one moon orbits this planet?
The Earth is the only planet in our Solar System with one Moon

Why does everyone see one side of the moon every night?
because the moon orbits around earth
What planet orbits the sun in 356.25 days?
The planet that orbits the sun in 356.25 days is Venus. Venus has an orbital period of about 225 Earth days, so it completes one orbit around the sun in approximately 0.62 Earth years.
Explain How is the moon earths satellite?
the moon orbits the earth and one definition of a satellite is "a natural body that revolves around a planet"
What kind of orbits do most planets have?
Most planets have elliptical orbits around the Sun. These orbits are slightly elongated circles, with the planet closer to the Sun at one end (perihelion) and farther away at the other end (aphelion).
