Have a circular element that an object can revolve around.
In this example, we use this planet:
Import an object that you want to revolve around the main element.
In this example, we use a rocket ship to go around the planet.
Add a circle shape of approximately the same size as the planet.
Select the rocket ship and the circle shape > Create a Group
Click on the Group > go to Properties > Show Anchor Point
Drag the Anchor Point to the center of the circle
Click on +Add Animation > select Rotation
Place the marker on the second keyframe
Place the cursor on one of the corner handlebars until it shows a bent double arrow icon
Rotate it in the direction you want until it reaches full circle.
You can also have the object revolve around the central element multiple times.
Once the rotation is successfully applied, Open the Group
Delete the circle
To make the revolution SLOWER: Increase the distance between the keyframes
To make the revolution FASTER, decrease the distance between keyframes
