How Earth Stays in Orbit Around the Sun
The Earth doesn't drift into space because the Sun's massive gravity bends spacetime around it, keeping Earth in orbit by continuously curving its path, making it appear to be constantly falling around the Sun.
Key points
- The Sun's massive gravity bends spacetime around it.
- Earth continuously tries to move forward but is pulled inward by the Sun's gravity.
- This continuous 'falling' motion keeps Earth in orbit, preventing it from falling into the Sun or drifting into deep space.
- There is no 'invisible rope' connecting Earth to the Sun; it's a curvature of spacetime.
