Gravity is a property of matter - no matter - no gravity.
Similar to electricity - no electrons - no electricity.
There are modern suggestions that matter (mass) is a property of space, but I'm not well up with those ideas.
But, that said, the gravity of the sun keeps the planets in their orbits, though they also inter-react with each other. In the same way as earth and Sun and Moon inter-react with each other.
One curious puzzle, is why the planets are largely in the form of a disk. ???

∙ 14y agoAll stars are suns. Suns are found in galaxies where there is material there to form them, so you don't really get stars that are completely on their own and not part of any galaxy. As it is, there is a huge distance between stars, but they all form parts of galaxies.

What galaxy looks like an amoeba?
In 1785 a star study of the heavens produced a star map of the Milky Way Galaxy that slightly resembled an amoeba (micro biologists might disagree) [See link] Since the Hubble telescope, no galaxy has been found, yet, that resembles an amoeba. There is a possibility than an a irregular or a merging galaxy might resemble one, one day.

'Sol' also known as the sun is the only star in our solar system and is therefore the biggest one. If you meant planets than that would be Jupiter.
Are there probably more planets or more galaxies in the universe explain your answer?
Since a galaxy can have many solar systems and a solar system might have more than one planet, for each galaxy there would be many planets. Therefore there would be more planets than galaxies.
Can there be more than one star in a solar system?
Sure. There are lots of binary star systems. And even ones with more than that. It is more common than many people realize. Our nearest neighbor is a star system with several stars all orbiting each other, or their center of mass, to be more precise.
What is the smallist out of a planet a star and a galaxy?
Planets are usually much smaller than stars, certainly for our solar system. For another solar systems you might find a very large planet and in others systems you might find a very small red dwarf star or a small dense neutron star that has come to the end of its life. Here, the large planet of one system might be larger than the star of another.
What is the name of the closest star system?
If by star system you mean more than one star but not a galaxy then Alpha Centauri is the closest star system
Is there more than one blue star?
Yes. Millions of blue stars exist in our galaxy alone.
What is difference between galaxy and star?
A star is one, a galaxy is many.
Can a supernova create other galaxies?
No. A supernova is only a single exploding star and only the mass of one large star is involved. A galaxy is billions of times more massive than even the largest star.
Is the sun a spiral gaxlaxy?
No. A Sun (or star) is one thing; a galaxy is something entirely different. A galaxy is much larger than a star; it contains millions or billions of stars.
Which one is the biggest the planetary system or galaxy?
A galaxy is far larger. A planetary system involves one or more planets revolving around a single star. A Galaxy consists of billions of stars.
Is there only one sun in your galaxy?
No. Every star in the galaxy is a sun.
In what galaxy is the super giant star found?
if u are talking about a grand star, than you can only get that from a galaxy where bowser is. To get that, u need to get the number of stars on the unopened galaxy that's shaped like bowser and beat him after you do you get the grand star. (there is one bowser or bowser jr. in each dome

Is sirius larger and has more energy than any other star in the galaxy?
No. Sirius is a fairly large star, but it is nothing extraordinary. It only appears brighter than the other stars in the night sky because it is one of the closest stars to us.
What is the name of a star in your galaxy?
Sirius is one...
