It was Johannes Kepler with his laws of planetary motion of 1618.
An ellipse.
No, Mars' orbit around the Sun is not a perfect circle but is rather an elongated ellipse. This means that Mars' distance from the Sun varies throughout its orbit, with its closest point called perihelion and its farthest point called aphelion.
A circle is an ellipse, so it's elliptical either way.However, the orbit of Mars is not a perfect circle.
Mars
The eccentricity of an ellipse measures how much it deviates from being circular, with values ranging from 0 (a perfect circle) to 1 (a parabolic shape). Mars has an orbital eccentricity of approximately 0.093, indicating that its orbit is slightly elliptical but relatively close to circular. If the given ellipse has a higher eccentricity than 0.093, it is more elongated than Mars's orbit; if it is lower, it is more circular.

Kelper determined that the orbit of Mars orbit is not a circle but an ellipse.
Mars
Yes. Two moons orbit the planet Mars: Phobos and Deimos.
Johannes Kepler realized that the orbit of Mars is an ellipse with the Sun at one of the foci. This was one of his three laws of planetary motion, known as Kepler's First Law.
That would be the planet known as earth.it is our planet earth
The orbit of Jupiter is closer to Mars' orbit than to Saturn's orbit. Mars = 1.52AU Jupiter = 5.20AU Saturn = 9.54AU Having said that, the positions of the planets are always changing as the planets orbit the sun at different rates. Mars is the closest planet to Jupiter as of February 2011, but this is not always the case.
No, Mars does not orbit around the Earth. The moon orbits around around the Earth. Both Earth and Mars orbit around the sun, but Mars is farther away from the sun.
No, the moons of Mars (Phobos and Phoebe) orbit Mars. Jupiter is another planet and has its own moons.
No. Mars is a planet and thus much smaller than any star. Stars cannot orbit planets. However, Mars does orbit the sun, which is a star.
