What else can I help you with?
The solar system is in what other system?
The solar system is not part of any other star system. It is part of a galaxy called Milky Way.
What is the 2nd galaxy in the solar system?
There are no galaxies in our, or any other, solar system. They are far too large.
Are planets in the universe or galaxy or solar system?
They are in all three. Planets are in solar systems. There are lots of solar systems in a galaxy. There are lots of galaxies in the universe. So any planet is in a solar system, a galaxy and the universe.
What is the difference between a solar system and galaxy?
Solar System: The sun with the celestial bodies that revolve around it in its gravitational field. Galaxy: A collection of star systems; any of the billions of systems each having many stars and nebulae and dust.
How are star solar system and galaxy related?
A galaxy is made up of all sorts of matter, including stars. Many stars have object orbiting them, such as planets, asteroids, and even other stars. Solar systems orbit the galactic centre of a galaxy. (Solar systems don't orbit a galaxy, they ARE the galaxy)
Is the orbital plane of your solar system parallel to the rotation of the milky way galaxy?
The orbital plane of a stellar system can be oriented in any way in relation to the plane of the Milky Way Galaxy. Our solar system, for example, is almost perpendicular to the plane of the Milky Way Galaxy.
Is space and the solar system the same thing?
No, space refers to the vast emptiness beyond Earth that contains stars, planets, and other celestial bodies. The solar system is a specific region of space that includes our sun, along with the planets and other objects that orbit it, such as Earth, Mars, and Jupiter.
What galaxies systems are 500 light years from your solar system?
500 light years from our solar system, in any direction, you're still deep within the Milky Way galaxy, and on a scale of galaxy-size, still relatively near our solar system.
Does our solar system float on the milky way?
No, there is nothing to "float" in. Like just about any object in outer space, the Solar System ORBITS the center of the Milky Way; it is moving in "free fall", meaning that gravity is the only force of any significance acting on the Solar System.
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.
Is the earth and the sun part of any galaxies?
Yes. Our solar system is part of the Milky Way galaxy.
Is there a black hole in our solar system?
No, we have not seen any evidence of a black hole in our solar system.
