The Solar System is a collection of celestial bodies bound together by gravity, centered around the Sun, which is a star. It includes eight planets—Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune—along with their moons, dwarf planets like Pluto, asteroids, comets, and other small objects. The Solar System extends far beyond the planets, with objects like the Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud marking the outer reaches. The study of the Solar System helps us understand the formation of planetary systems and our place in the universe.
