Ellipse

Real World Example

Imagine trying to walk around a crowded room without bumping into anything. Just like you carefully navigate around obstacles, planets follow an elliptical path, avoiding collisions and maintaining harmony in the vast space. In both scenarios, there are main points to focus on: your path around the room is guided by the most crowded areas, much like how an ellipse is defined by two focal points that shape the planet's orbit, ensuring it stays in a smooth, predictable path without straying.
