For Mr. B and my I Period science class. Press the green flag, I hope you like it :D.
MORE INFO: Gravity is a force that, with two objects like the Earth and Sun, pull on each other, making the Earth move towards the Sun. Also, velocity keeps the Earth moving, causing the Earth to miss the Sun every time it moves towards the Sun. If the orbit stopped, the Earth would crash into the Sun. If it moved faster, Earth would move even farther from the Sun and eventually fling off course. Gosh, I'm smart :P DID YOU KNOW: The time the Earth is closest to the sun is in January?
