This one doesn't apply in Star Wars because nobody orbits anything in Star Wars. Antigravity is cheaper than accelerating into an orbital vector.

There are lot of films where this doesn't happen for sure ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Isn't the death star in orbit at one point?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Yes the second Death Star is in orbit around Endor.

Then why don't the continents ever turn out from under them?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Because the movie is only 2 hours long and it takes several hours for that to happen.

The movie is 2 hours, but sometimes the events are much longer.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Yes, but during the parts of those events when we weren't looking, they moved the ships over so they'd be in the same place relative to the ground.
