Who says it's not falling,! It is on the free fall towards the sun.. the same you see astronauts orbiting the earth they are in the free fall but due to having a tangential velocity they are held to their orbits..the earth is not only gravitationally attracted by sun it is also gravitationally by other planets too. Thus those compensate and cancel out each other thus earth has a definite orbit to move in !
