Planets orbit stars not because they are attached by strings, but through a continuous balance between inertia (which wants planets to fly straight) and gravity (which pulls them toward the star); when a planet moves at the right speed, these opposing forces create a stable circular path, while moving too slowly causes it to fall into the star and moving too fast causes it to escape.

You’ve Been Lied To About How Planets MoveAñadido:
I will never picture planets as static balls after learning this.
Why are there not more people talking about [music] the invisible forces choreographing space?
Here's the short version. Inertia wants a planet to fly straight.
Gravity tugs [music] it toward the star.
So, the path curves, a loop. Speed decides what happens. Too slow and you fall [music] in. Too fast and you escape.
Balance just right, you circle forever.
No strings attached. That's why planets keep moving. A perfect endless push [music] and pull.
Gravity versus inertia.
That's the whole dance. Now, you'll never see orbits the same way.
