  1. yes, sun is also revolving in its own orbit. as the earth revolve around the sun in a perticular orbit.  


  2. youp...its too moving with the whole universe..

  3. YES. sun rotates about its Galactic center

    for more info go to

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galactic_ce...

  4. the sun is rotating in a sense, but not like our earth or even other planets do...

    the mass at the center is moving faster then material at the poles.... it sorta looks like this:

      /////////////\\\\\\\\\\\\\

    ///////////////\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

    >>>>>>>>>>>>>

    \\\\\\\\\\\\\\////////////////

    \\\\\\\\\\\\\///////////////

    from a sideways angle the material actually forms a sort of arrow-like structure, with the point of course being at the equator...

    it differs from planets in another way too... instead of having two poles, a north and south pole... it has hundreds, even thousands.... and they are constantly on the move.

    it also orbits the galactic center.... at extreme speeds too.... 458,000 MPH...

    even galaxies are moving around (or appear to anyways, technically they're not moving, space inbetween them is just expanding, from a perspective view it's the same thing, but on a technical level, they are diffrent indeed.)

  5. Of course the sun moves! It's as if you're thinking that our solar system is the only system in the universe. Our solar system is only one of several systems within this particular galaxy known as the Milky Way. And that our planetary system including its sun revolves around this galaxy's center which happens to be a black hole.  We're all moving.  Of course, none of this will really matter in about 4 years when most of us, the human race, will cease to be, on December 21, 2012 when we will find ourselves in full planetary alignment with the aforementioned black hole.

  6. yes, while universe is getting larger everything moves apart each others. so yeah, the sun is moving.

  7. It's moving around the galaxy. Nothing is stationary in space. You can even get you tube videos of the solar flares shooting out from the surface of the sun. It sounds really cool.

  8. yes and the galaxy milky way is moving two do you know  

  9. Sure, it's orbitting around the galaxy with other stars just like the moon orbits around the earth.  Of course, it takes billions of years to complete one full round, but still.  The whole universe is in constant and violent (albeit slow from our perspective) motion.

  10. Everything in the Universe is moving.  We orbit the Sun, the Sun orbits the centre of the Galaxy every 225 million years and this Galaxy is moving toward that one called Andromeda.  And it appears that local galaxies including us and Andromeda are also moving towards a region of space known as the "Great Attractor".

  11. The sun and our whole solar system rotates around our galaxies center. Our galaxy drifts away from the point of the big bang. So yes the sun moves, in many way

  12. Everything in the Universe is Moving

  13. The people who have answered have forgotten that when astronomers look for other planets in other solar systems although they cannot see the planets they know there are planets there because the sun wobbles due to the gravitational pull of the planets.So if you were to observe our solar system from another you would see our sun wobble.So yes, our sun does move in our solar system.

  14. Allah says in The Holy Qur'an Chapter# 36, Verse # 38.

    And the Sun moves on to its destination. That is the ordinance of the Mighty, the Knower.

    36-Ya-Seen

    For a long time European philosophers and scientists

    believed that the earth stood still in the centre of the

    universe and every other body including the sun

    moved around it. In the West, this geocentric concept

    of the universe was prevalent right from the time of

    Ptolemy in the second century B.C. In 1512, Nicholas

    Copernicus put forward his Heliocentric Theory of

    Planetary Motion, which asserted that the sun ismotionless at the centre of the solar system with the

    planets revolving around it.

    In 1609, the German scientist Yohannus Keppler

    published the ‘Astronomia Nova’. In this he

    concluded that not only do the planets move in

    elliptical orbits around the sun, they also rotate

    upon their axes at irregular speeds. With this

    knowledge it became possible for European scientists

    to explain correctly many of the mechanisms of the

    solar system, including the sequence of night and

    day.

    After these discoveries, it was thought that the Sun

    was stationary and did not rotate about its axis like

    the Earth. I remember having studied this fallacy

    from Geography books during my school days.

    Consider the following Qur’anic verse:

    “It is He Who created

    the Night and the Day,

    and the sun and the moon:

    All (the celestial bodies)

    swim along, each in its

    rounded course.”

    [Al-Qur’an 21:33]


  15. NO THE SUN IS NOT RLY MOVING.THE EARTH ORBITS AROUND THE SUN WHICH CAUSES IT TO LOOK LIKE THE SUN IS MOVING WHEN ITS ACTUALLY NOT

  16. Yes. The planets orbit around the sun, and in turn the sun orbits around our milky way galaxy - it takes 225 million years for the sun to complete one orbit around the galaxy (it's called one cosmic year).

    Hope that helps!

  17. Yes, it is orbiting around the center of our galaxy. actually everything in the universe is moving.

  18. The sun is rotating, orbiting the galactic center, and the milky way is shooting through space so the sun is moving a lot. The sun does not revolve around the Earth, if that's what you mean. The sun doesn't rise or set, the Earth revolves.

    EDIT: Don't listen to "Quasar" he's a rude moron even though he is right about the answer. But he has no right calling you retarded. But don't worry, he calls everyone a r****d. So I give him a thumbs down and I reported him this time because I'm getting sick of him.
