No. Every closed orbit (around and around and around) is an ellipse.
Every open orbit (swish by one time and never return) is a hyperbola.
The one that's exactly precisely on the dividing line between closed and
open is a parabola.

What is an orbit that is a parabola or a hyperbola?
Orbits are elliptical.
What are some examples of real life hyperbola?
The orbit of objects that approach the Sun, or Earth, from far away, above a certain critical speed.At a certain critical speed, the orbit will be a parabola. Above the critical speed, the orbit will be a hyperbola. (In both cases, the object will go away, never to come back.) Below the critical speed, the orbit is an elipse or a circle.The orbit of objects that approach the Sun, or Earth, from far away, above a certain critical speed.At a certain critical speed, the orbit will be a parabola.

Does a parabola always have 2 x intercepts?
No, if the vertex of the parabola is (0, 0) it will only have one x intercept. The parabola might have zero x intercepts as well. For example: Y= x^2 + 1 would never touch the x line.
How do you find the endpoints of a parabola when you have the function of the line?
A parabola has no endpoints: it extends to infinity.A parabola has no endpoints: it extends to infinity.A parabola has no endpoints: it extends to infinity.A parabola has no endpoints: it extends to infinity.
Is a parabola the same as a parabolic curve?
No. If you tilt a parabola, you will still have a parabolic curve but it will no longer be a parabola.
What causes the moon to revolve around earth in an ellipse-shaped orbit?
The gravitational attraction of the earth on the moon. The ellipse including a circle indicates a captured orbit. If the moon was not captured it could travel the path of a parabola or Hyperbola.
What is a non-example of a orbit?
Moon and sun
What is an orbit that is a parabola or a hyperbola?
Orbits are elliptical.
A vert good sentences with the word orbit?
"The teacher has plotted the orbit of the moon" is an example of a sentence with the word orbit.
What is an asteroid's orbit like?
it looks like a parabola, and it curves around objects.
Does the moon orbit Earth or does the Earth orbit the moon?
The moon orbits Earth.
What is it called when a moon's orbit is backwards?
When a moon's orbit is backwards, it is referred to as a retrograde orbit.
The orbit of a planet around the sun is a ellipse straight line circle or parabola?
The orbit of a planet around the sun is called an ellipse.
What is a natural satillite?
Its anything in orbit around a planet, such as a moon, that has not been put there by man. The moon is an example of a natural satellite of the Earth.
What moon is in a retrograde orbit?
Neptune's 7th moon Triton is in a retrograde orbit and although it isn't a moon Venus is in a retrograde orbit
Does the moon orbit the solar system?
no the moon does not orbit the solar system.
What is it called when the moon moves around the earth?
This is called its orbit. Strictly, the moon and the earth both orbit their common centre of mass. The path of the moon around Earth is elliptical orbit. It takes about 29 days to complete one orbit of earth by moon.
