What keeps the planets from falling in space?
Enormous objects such as planets and stars create a lot of gravity because they have a lot of matter occupying a relatively small space. The sun creates a lot of gravity and can therefore keep us in orbit. The same thing applies to Earth and its moon.
On Earth, when you let go of something, it will fall to the ground. This is because the Earth has gravity. In space, there is no up or down because there is no gravity.
And because there are no forces of gravity from either above or below our solar system, the only force holding the planets where they are, is the sun's gravitational pull. The planets are not pulled in any other direction, and consequently, they stay where they are.
