The shape of the orbit of each planet is a?
The shape of the orbit of each planet is an ellipse. An ellipse is a geometric shape that is like a flattened circle. The Sun is located at one of the foci of the ellipse, not at the center.
What does the orbit of a planet look like?
The orbit of a planet is an ellipse with the Sun at one of its foci. This means the shape of the orbit is similar to a slightly flattened circle. The orbiting planet will travel along this path due to the gravitational pull of the Sun.
The shape of the orbit of each planet is an?

What scientist found the orbit of each planet to be ellipse?
Kepler
Kepler discovered that the orbit of each planet is an what rather than a perfect circle?
Johannes Kepler discovered that the Earth revolves/orbits the Sun in an ELLIPSE. He also discovered that the Sun is NOT at the centre of the ellipse, but at one of the foci ; (plural of focus). The other focal point being 'blind'. From this we have the definition, that as the Earth orbits the Sun , 'It sweeps equal arcs in equal times'. As the Earth orbits, it speeds up and slows down. It is moving at its fastest when passing the Sun at it nearest point ( perigee) and slowest when at its furthest point ( apogee). Have a look in Wikipedia under' Johannes Kepler.
What is the scientific name for the path of a planet around the sun?
The scientific name for the path of a planet around the sun is an orbit. The shape of this path can be an ellipse, with the sun located at one of the foci of the ellipse.
