The following was here before I added the links (see the related links). This is nonsensical but imaginative. The only thing here that is clearly wrong is the reference to centrifugal force. Anyone who knows physics knows that, TTBOMK, centrifugal force is not known to exist, but gravity is a centripetal force:
Imagine yourself in a very huge pool with a centrifugal force spinning very fast that it throws you out at a distance before you're caught by the vortex, now that you're trapped there's a limit to how fast this energy can take you around the center of force, this is your terminal velocity .Draw an invisible line from yourself to the center, according to the universal law of gravitation every object in the universe attracts another object with a force proportional to the product of their mass with a speed proportional to the distance between their center. In relation, your body should not shift any degree from the plane unless you lost or gained an amount of weight. Let's assume you magically gained some heavy weight, now your velocity has been altered and transformed into a variable velocity. The gravitational wave current is to weak to hold extra mass in that regional plane, so now you are attracted to the center of force with an accelerated mass difference but the initial speed of the center force does not change and since your mass is not greater than the center mass in relation to your speed, you will be flung back out until the force weakens and the process will repeat.
The planets revolve in elliptical orbits. The inner planets have orbits 230 million km or less from the Sun. The outer planets have orbits 775 million km or greater.
Johannes Kepler proposed the idea that planets revolve around the sun in elliptical orbits in his laws of planetary motion. This idea challenged the prevailing belief at the time that the Earth was the center of the universe.
All planets have elliptical orbits.
Planets orbit in an elliptical shape around the Sun, with the Sun located at one of the foci of the ellipse. All planets in our solar system revolve counterclockwise when viewed from above the Sun's north pole.
Planets revolve on their axis. Separate to this motion, they also orbit the Sun. The force of gravity and the momentum of the objects keep them going.

The planets revolve in elliptical orbits. The inner planets have orbits 230 million km or less from the Sun. The outer planets have orbits 775 million km or greater.
Planets revolve in elliptical orbits due to the gravitational influence of other bodies in the solar system. As planets interact with each other, their orbits can become elongated or slightly off-center, leading to elliptical shapes rather than perfect circles. This is a result of the complex dynamics of the solar system.
Johannes Kepler proposed the idea that planets revolve around the sun in elliptical orbits in his laws of planetary motion. This idea challenged the prevailing belief at the time that the Earth was the center of the universe.
He is a danish astronomer who stated that all the planets revolve around the sun in elliptical orbits and that the sun is not in the exact center of the orbit.
Elliptical orbits of the planets around the sun actually match what we observe. Newton's Theory of Universal Gravitation states that planets will move around the sun in elliptical orbits.
Yes, the Earth and other planets in our solar system revolve around the Sun in elliptical orbits due to the force of gravity. This orbital motion is what causes the planets to move in their respective paths around the Sun.
Mercury: Elliptical Venus: Elliptical Earth: Elliptical Mars: Elliptical Jupiter: Elliptical Saturn: Elliptical Uranus: Elliptical Neptune: Elliptical All planets revolve around the Sun in elliptical orbits, with the Sun located at one of the two foci of the ellipse.
Planets travel in elliptical orbits.
As an elliptical orbit is any orbit that isn't perfectly circular, everything has an elliptical orbit. The planets Mercury and Pluto have the most elliptical orbits of the planets, and are easily seen to be oval shaped. Comets also have highly elliptical orbits.
All planets have elliptical orbits.
In one word 'YES'. The paths that you describe are the planets orbits. These orbits are shaped like 'Ellipsoids'., that is an ellipse that doesn't quite close-up , but overloops with every circuit. The Sun lies not at the centre of the ellipsoid, but at one of the foci. As a consequence planets following their orbits paths speed up (Nearest the Sun) and slow down (Furthest from the Sun).
