Which galaxy does the sun belong to?
These are the basics. Our sun is the star at the center of our solar system. A solar system is made up of a star and any other objects connected to it by its gravity. Our sun has the standard eight planets along with their moons, and also countless other objects including asteroids and comets. Our galaxy, The Milky Way, is estimated to contain between 200 billion and 400 billion stars. Some of those stars have planets orbiting them, and others do not. Our solar system then is just a very very tiny part of the Milky Way, and the Milky Way is one of billions of observable galaxies throughout space.
