All 8 planets in our solar system rotate around a star, our sun. Virtually all planets rotate around a star.
The stars are described as 'fixed', which means they all appear to go round on a fixed sphere every 24 hours. Each star stays in the same direction (very nearly) for many years at a time. But the planets go round the Sun, just as we do, so they appear in different directions as they go round. But because they all go round in a plane (approximately), like a big thick saucer with the Sun at the centre, they all appear to move round a circle in the sky called the ecliptic. Each planet gets round the ecliptic once in the time it takes to go round the Sun. Because the orbits are slightly inclined, the planets do not always stick exactly on the ecliptic but they are never far off it.
Planets, moons, and stars are round due to gravity. Gravity pulls objects towards their center of mass, causing them to form into a spherical shape. This is the most stable and efficient configuration for large celestial bodies.
Planets orbit stars.
Jupiter is the planet and the objects that go round it are the moons of Jupiter. (planets go round the Sun - moons go round planets). The 4 jovian moons you can see with a pair of binoculars are Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto. Ganymede is the largest and the most obvious.
No. Dwarf planets orbit stars just like planets do. Stars orbit the center of their galaxy. An object orbiting a planet would be a moon.
Yes. All the stars are round and all the planets are round.
Yes. All the stars are round and all the planets are round.
Yes!!!! The correct term is "spherical", which means round in all dimensions like a ball. (A hoop is round, but is not spherical) Stars and planets are not perfect spheres, but they are very close to perfect spheres.

Because the Earth and all the planets move in orbits round the Sun, while the stars appear to be fixed if we disregard the Earth's daily rotation.

All of the planets are in the same atmosphere. All of the planets are unique. All of the planets are considered planets. All of the planets have moons. All of the planets are named after a mythical person or thing.
Planets orbit stars.
If you go past the stars you will get to planets then clocks then nothing
On the contrary! A star has planets, which circulate it. And planets have moons. Stars do not circle planets.
Because of the Sun's gravity.
Planets and stars have gravity.
