its falling and it has interia
Stay in orbit
For a planet to stay in it's orbit the forces must be in balance.
the rotation of the planet and its orbit
Interia and gravity combine to make a planet stay in an orbit.
Neptune
The gravitational pull of the planet Saturn keep it's rings in orbit.

I dont know...... sorry :) Hope I helped!?
You are thinking of Pluto. Pluto is now designated a minor planet.
The point at which a planet is at its smallest distance from the sun in its orbit is called perihelion. This is when the planet is closest to the sun and moving at its highest velocity in its orbit.
The gravitational force between the planet and the sun causes the planet to orbit the sun, keeping it in a continuous path. Additionally, the planet's inertia, or tendency to continue moving in a straight line, causes it to stay in motion around the sun.
The Sun's gravity causes a planet to orbit the Sun.
