Question

The planets keep changing their position with respect to stars.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Planets:

1. Because of the rotation of the Earth, the planets appear to move across the sky with the stars during the night (or day).
2. However, the planets slowly move relative to the stars from night to night.
3. They usually move west to east in relation to the stars.
4. The gravity of the Sun pulls planets into orbit around it, and some planets pull moons into orbit around them.
5. Because of gravitational forces, even spacecraft are in motion throughout the solar system, either in orbit around the Earth or Moon or traveling to other worlds.

Therefore, the above statement is true.
