What is solar system?

Question

answers should be clear,meaningful,simple

Answer 1

Our solar system is the sun and all the planets orbiting it. There are countless others. (By the way our sun is a star.)

Answer 2

Well actually there is only ONE solar system. This is because our sun's name is SOL so that means any other star system can never have the name solar system. Solar system is our sun and all the celestial bodies orbiting it.

Answer 3

Its the sun and the surrounding planets around that sun.  The most prominent feature of a solar system is the sun.

Our solar system including the nine (including Pluto) planets and our sun is  one of trillions and trillions of solar systems out there

The Solar System[a] consists of the Sun and those celestial objects bound to it by gravity. These objects are the eight planets and their 166 known moons;[1] three dwarf planets and their four known moons; and billions of small bodies, including asteroids, Kuiper belt objects, comets, meteoroids, and interplanetary dust

Answer 4

Our solar system consists of an average star we call the Sun, the planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. It includes: the satellites of the planets; numerous comets, asteroids, and meteoroids; and the interplanetary medium. The Sun is the richest source of electromagnetic energy (mostly in the form of heat and light) in the solar system. The Sun's nearest known stellar neighbor is a red dwarf star called Proxima Centauri, at a distance of 4.3 light years away. The whole solar system, together with the local stars visible on a clear night, orbits the center of our home galaxy, a spiral disk of 200 billion stars we call the Milky Way. The Milky Way has two small galaxies orbiting it nearby, which are visible from the southern hemisphere. They are called the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Small Magellanic Cloud. The nearest large galaxy is the Andromeda Galaxy. It is a spiral galaxy like the Milky Way but is 4 times as massive and is 2 million light years away. Our galaxy, one of billions of galaxies known, is traveling through intergalactic space.

Answer 5

this solar system consists of the planets following the sun in their way along with the sun. the plnets are jupiter,saturn,mars,mercury,venus and moon.along with these the rahu and ketu are the shadow planets for rhe eclips.

Answer 6

The solar system composes of the Sun and everything under the gravitational influence of the Sun

Answer 7

A solar system is a star and any planets, comets, and other celestial bodies orbiting it.

Answer 8

technically, the solar system is ONLY the star Sol and the planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and various other masses effected by it's gravity.

Any other 'solar system' is really a star system, since solar refers just to our star, Sol.

Answer 9

a star with planets orbiting it

Answer 10

The Solar System consists of the Sun and those celestial objects bound to it by gravity. These objects are the eight planets and their 166 known moons; three dwarf planets and their four known moons; and billions of small bodies, including asteroids, Kuiper belt objects, comets, meteoroids, and interplanetary dust.

In broad terms, the charted regions of the Solar System consist of the Sun, four terrestrial inner planets, an asteroid belt composed of small rocky bodies, four gas giant outer planets, and a second belt, the Kuiper belt, composed of icy objects. Beyond the Kuiper belt is the scattered disc, the heliopause, and ultimately the hypothetical Oort cloud.

In order of their distances from the Sun, the terrestrial planets are:

Mercury

Venus

Earth

Mars

The outer gas giants (or Jovians) are:

Jupiter

Saturn

Uranus

Neptune

Answer 11

the sun and the planets around it including the earth

Answer 12

Answer 14

well,solar system is in galaxy milky way. Solar system comprise of nine planets which revolves around the sun in their orbit. An orbit is an  imaginary path of a planet.

Answer 15

the sun with the planets.

Answer 16

the sunlight..

Answer 17

Solar system is a celestial phenomenon constituting Sun(star) and nine planets(though pluto is now excluded so 8) and their satellites(moon) along with asteroids(between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter) and comets, meteors, dust and gases revolving around the sun due to its strong gravitational force.
