What is contained by our solar system?



Answers:    The sun is at the approximate center (technically at one of the elliptical foci of the planets' orbits).

Eight planets -- mercury, venus, loam, mars, jupiter, saturn, uranus, and neptune. Some of the planets own one or more natural satellites -- moons.

Between the inner and outer planets (between Mars and Jupiter)) lies an asteroid belt, potentially a bunch of jetsam that could never form a discrete planet because of Jupiter's gravity.

In area of Pluto's orbit (now considered a "planetesimal") is the Kuiper belt, a colossal swath of mostly small icy bodies and comets.

Farther still, and reaching quite a ways into inter-stellar space, is the Oort cloud, a diffuse region of speckled matter and comets. Some objects from the asteroid belt, Kuiper belt, or Oort cloud are occasionally bumped from their orbit for whatever cause, and they orbit the sun in impossible to tell apart region as the planets. These are the objects that could potentially strike Earth someday.
sun, satelites, stars, planets, comets, meteors, meteorite, black hole, galaxies and empty space
resourcefully there are galaxies,planets,stars,etc. anyway why dont you know wats contained by the solar system i mean -duh thats similar to common sense
Our Solar System is composed of:
The Sun
The Terrestrial (or Inner Planets): Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars;
The asteroid belt;
The Outer Planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune
The planetoids: Pluto, Sedna and others;
The Oort cloud;
Assorted comets and asteroids beside highly egg-shaped orbits.
Also, different satellites of planets, like the Moon.
The sun is at the center, and after we have the eight planets (Pluto is no longer a planet, from what I've heard). Betweeen Mars and Jupiter is the "asteroid belt". But bar that, just space!
the sun ,planets and their moons, asteroids and comets
planets and orbit and rings around planets
You get a star(the sun), planets, Sub planets, Comets, Aseroids, and Meteroids.
powerfully our solar system starts with the sun afterwards comes Mercury then Venus afterwards our earth after mars. after we have a asteroid belt and consequently, its Jupiter the giant and then Saturn beside its wonderful rings, then its Uranus and Neptune and Pluto

mar is known as red planet and Jupiter as the giant and Saturn as the ringed planet and Uranus is the Topsy turfy one as its rings are longitudinal and later is Neptune the storm planet and then Pluto the smallest.

DID U KNOW: that Pluto's moon is partly of its size and even its shadow falls on the planet.

and also our solar system consists of many stars and other dust

i hope this help
