The fact that you can see stars that are many light years outside our solar system and even in other galaxies is proof that some of the energy from those stars is reaching your eyes. Therefore, it is logical to assume that the energy from our star, the sun, likewise reaches far outside our galaxy. However, by the time solar energy travels that far, it is far too insignificant to have any effect.

What are stars in the solar system like?

there is only 1 star in our solar system, which is our sun. the stars that we can see at night are outside of our solar system


What is outside of the edge of the solar system?

well outside of our solar systems is more stars and more solar systems.


Are all the stars you see in night inside the solar system or outside your galaxy?

No. All the stars you see at night are in our galaxy, but outside of the solar system. The only star in our solar system is the one at its center: the sun.


Are stars part of your solar system?

No, stars are not part of our solar system. Our solar system consists of the Sun and all the objects that orbit it, such as planets, moons, asteroids, and comets. Stars are separate celestial bodies that exist outside of our solar system.


Does the sun produce all the energy in the solar system?

Not all of it, but most. Other energy may come from radioactivity within the planets, or kinetic energy from objects that come in outside of the solar system. Also small amounts of radiation can come from other stars.


Which objects are not in our solar system?

The stars (except for the sun) along with interstellar gas and dust, are in our galaxy but are outside our solar system. Then there are other galaxies outside our own.


What comes out of planets?

Planets are not active emitters of energy, that would be Stars. Planets only reflect the energy (light) from nearby stars that they orbit. That is what makes it so difficult to find planets outside of our Solar System.


Why are stars a part of your solar system?

There is only one star that is part of our solar system. That is the sun. The stars we see are outside our solar system. "Solar" refers to our star. It holds the solar system together as it is through its gravity that everything orbits it, creating the solar system. So it is the key part of our solar system. That is why it is part of it.


Are planets outside the solar system?

A solar system comprises a star (or combination of gravity bound stars) and their orbiting planets. We think the majority of stars are solar systems an we have detected planets orbiting stars other than the Sun. However in the process of forming a solar system we believe that planets my be permanently ejected from orbiting their stars and flung off into interstellar space. These planets would therefore indeed be outside any solar system.


What planet is outside the solar system?

As of 6 December 2016, there are 3,545 known planets outside the solar system. These orbit 2,660 different stars.


How many constellations are in our solar system?

There are 88 recognized constellations in the sky, but none of them exist within our solar system. Constellations are patterns of stars as seen from Earth and are not physical groupings of stars that exist together in space.


Are the solar system and all the stars in the space part of your galaxy?

The solar system definitely is, and most of the stars you see are as well. If you can see the Andromeda Nebula on a very dark clear night, that is a system of stars outside our galaxy.
