This is a basic question I always had trouble understanding. As moon is orbiting earth, is it coming close? Now it might be for other factors but my point is, Earth has some gravity force on it so even if something is orbiting earth, it should be coming to close to it unless it is fast enough to surpass Earth's gravity in which case, there won't a orbit, there will be a curve. I just don't understand the fact that something can orbit Earth in a circle(theoretically) and not come closure to it.
