What is the path which one body follows around other body in space?

The path that one body follows around another body in space is called an orbit. This trajectory is typically elliptical, as described by Kepler's laws of planetary motion, although it can also be circular. The gravitational attraction between the two bodies dictates the shape and stability of the orbit, with the central body (e.g., a planet or star) exerting a force that keeps the orbiting body in its path.
