GENERAL KNOWLEDGE

Detailed explanation-1: -Our solar system consists of our star, the Sun, and everything bound to it by gravity – the planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune; dwarf planets such as Pluto; dozens of moons; and millions of asteroids, comets, and meteoroids.

Detailed explanation-2: -Orbit and Rotation The Sun is located in the Milky Way galaxy in a spiral arm called the Orion Spur that extends outward from the Sagittarius arm. The Sun orbits the center of the Milky Way, bringing with it the planets, asteroids, comets, and other objects in our solar system.

Detailed explanation-3: -All the planets in our solar system, along with all the asteroids in the Asteroid Belt and all comets, follow this kind of orbit. Each planet’s orbit is regular: they follow certain paths and take a certain amount of time to make one complete orbit.

Detailed explanation-4: -Our solar system is made up of a star-the Sun-eight planets, 146 moons, a bunch of comets, asteroids and space rocks, ice, and several dwarf planets, such as Pluto. The eight planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Mercury is closest to the Sun.
