How do the sun and stars move?

Question

Lydia Allen · Accepted Answer

They orbit their galactic center.

The sun and other stars in out galaxy orbit around the center of the galaxy due to gravitational forces, it is assumed that a supermassive black hole in the center of our galaxy (and other spiral galaxies) provides the mass for a good portion of the gravitational field. The sun orbits around the galaxy is about 220 km/s and so it orbits around the entire galaxy every 240 million years or about 18 times since the solar system formed.

Actual moement of Sun and stars is not observable in short period The Sun and stars move around Miky wat galaxy in 230 million years once.

Ivy Allen · Answer

undefined The Sun and stars appear to move across the sky due to the Earth's rotation. In reality, the stars are relatively fixed in position, and it's the Earth's rotation that causes this apparent motion. The Sun, along with the rest of the stars in the Milky Way, also orbits around the center of the galaxy. This motion is much slower and is not readily apparent in our daily lives.
