The solar system consists of the Sun and the objects that orbit it, including planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and meteoroids.
A collection of galaxies orbiting a black hole.
A group of stars orbiting a larger star at its core.
The area of space solely occupied by asteroids.
The Sun is at the center of the solar system.
Earth is at the center of the solar system.
The Moon is at the center of the solar system.
An asteroid is at the center of the solar system.
Seven planets.
Nine planets.
Ten planets.
There are eight planets in our solar system.
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune.
Mars, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn.
The four terrestrial planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.
Mercury, Mars, Neptune, Saturn.
They have thick atmospheres filled with hydrogen and helium.
They are mostly made of gases and liquids.
Terrestrial planets have solid, rocky surfaces.
They are icy and located beyond Neptune.
Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter.
The four gas giants are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars.
Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto.
Jupiter and Saturn are called gas giants due to their large sizes and gaseous compositions, mostly of hydrogen and helium.
Because they have solid rocky surfaces.
Because they spin at extremely high speeds.
Because they have the most rings in the solar system.
A small, icy body that displays a coma.
An asteroid is a small, rocky body that orbits the Sun, mostly found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
A metallic body that bounces off planets.
A large star in a distant galaxy.
A comet is a small icy body that orbits the Sun and, when close enough, displays a visible coma or a tail.
A rocky planet with no atmosphere.
A small planet that orbits another planet.
A shooting star that burns out quickly.
The path Pluto takes around the Sun.
The asteroid belt is a region of space between Mars and Jupiter where most asteroids in our solar system are found.
A collection of icy bodies beyond Neptune.
The area surrounding a black hole.
A large star at the center of a galaxy.
A planet made of ice and dust.
A gas giant like Jupiter.
A meteoroid is a small rocky or metallic body traveling through space.
It becomes a permanent satellite of Earth.
It forms a new planet in the sky.
When a meteoroid enters Earth's atmosphere, it becomes a meteor, popularly known as a shooting star, and if it survives to the ground, it's called a meteorite.
It splits into multiple small comets.
The Kuiper Belt is a region beyond Neptune's orbit that contains many small icy bodies and dwarf planets.
A group of larger planets beyond Saturn's orbit.
A cloud of gases surrounding the Sun.
A path asteroids take as they travel through space.
The Oort Cloud is a theoretical cloud of icy bodies that is believed to surround the solar system at a great distance.
A belt of rocky planets near the Sun.
A collection of solar debris visible from Earth.
A group of meteorites in Earth's orbit.
Jupiter has the most moons of any planet in our solar system.
Earth has the most moons.
Mars has the most moons.
Neptune has the most moons.
