Answer:
Earth moves around the Sun in an elliptical orbit. Earth's orbit is almost a perfect circle; its eccentricity is only 0.0167! ... Because the Sun is at the focus, not the center, of the ellipse, the planet moves closer to and further away from the Sun every orbit. The close point in each orbit is called perihelion.
