Question

From the point of view of the sun does the earth circle the moon or does the moon circle the earth

Answer 1

The Earth and the Moon both orbit around it together.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Earth and the Moon both orbit around a common center of mass, called the barycenter, which is located within the Earth. From the point of view of the Sun, it appears that the Earth is orbiting around the barycenter, and the Moon is orbiting around the Earth. In other words, the Earth and the Moon are both in orbit around the Sun, but their paths around the Sun are perturbed by their mutual gravitational attraction. This means that, from the Sun's perspective, it looks like the Earth is orbiting around the Moon, even though the Earth and the Moon are actually both orbiting around the barycenter.
