The Milky Way is a collection of stars, including our sun. Many other stars have planets orbiting around them. When at least one planet orbits a sun(s), it is a solar system. The are (likely) millions of solar systems in our galaxy alone. A galaxy is a collection of stars that orbit around a large mass, normally a black hole. And there are thousands more galaxies in the universe.

So, no. We are not the only solar system.
