How to keep Object facing the same way in motion path

Anonymous

Hi, I've just started learning how to use motion paths, and I need to animate the orbit of a planet about the sun. I want the planet to rotate about its axis as it orbits, but the default behavior seems to be for an object to maintain the same orientation, i.e. face the sun the whole time. How do I override this, so the planet can rotate about itself while still following a circular path around the sun?
