Detailed explanation-1: -An orbit is a regular, repeating path that one object in space takes around another one. An object in an orbit is called a satellite. A satellite can be natural, like Earth or the moon. Many planets have moons that orbit them. A satellite can also be man-made, like the International Space Station.
Detailed explanation-2: -An orbit is a regular, repeating path that one object takes around another object or center of gravity. Orbiting objects, which are called satellites, include planets, moons, asteroids, and manmade devices. Objects orbit each other because of gravity. Gravity is the force that exists between any two objects with mass.
Detailed explanation-3: -(Grades K-4) series. An orbit is a path. It’s the way something goes around an object in space. The moon goes in orbit around Earth.
Detailed explanation-4: -All the planets, asteroids, meteoroids, and comets in the solar system orbit the sun. This is called heliocentric orbit. Almost all these bodies also travel in the same orbital plane, a thin disk surrounding the sun and extending to the edge of the solar system.
Detailed explanation-5: -That’s because it takes a full year, or just over 365 days, for Earth to orbit, or revolve, around the sun. An orbit is a repeating path that one object in space takes around another. All orbits are elliptical in shape, meaning they’re egg-shaped, or oval, rather than circular.
