Detailed explanation-1: -An orbit is a regular, repeating path that one object takes around another object or center of gravity.
Detailed explanation-2: -A satellite is an object that moves around a larger object. Earth is a satellite because it moves around the sun. The moon is a satellite because it moves around Earth. Earth and the moon are called “natural” satellites.
Detailed explanation-3: -As the planets began to settle into orbits the pull of gravity from their own center of mass pulled them in on themselves, tugging at each planet’s mass equally towards its center. This strong internal gravitational pull gives planets their round, spherical shape.
Detailed explanation-4: -Gravity is the force that keeps planets in orbit around the Sun. Gravity alone holds us to Earth’s surface.
