The Milky Way Galaxy
These are the four outer planets, known as the gas giants. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
The eight planets of our system are not considered small solar system bodies, to qualify as a planet in the first place means that they have to be quite large. Small solar system bodies are such things as comets, asteroids, meterorids, moons or minor planets.
These are all large planets in the solar system that revolve around the sun.
The small planets are the ones smaller than 8000 miles in diameter. The large planets are the large ones larger than 30,000 miles in diameter.
Moons are approximately spherical objects which orbit planets and are smaller than the planets that they orbit, although they are still relatively large objects (so an orbiting dust particle does not qualify as a moon). Since moons orbit planets, their motion around the solar system is controlled by the planets that they orbit; planets orbit the sun, and planets take their moons with them.
universe
A large grouping of stars in space is commonly referred to as the galaxy. This can also be called the solar system since planets are also types of stars.
In both systems, the Moon goes around the Earth.
Planets, moons, asteroids.
Which planet are you talking about?
Not in our solar system. The inner planets are smaller.
The Terrestrial planets have a higher density. Their structure includes a large percentage of rock, while the Jovian planets are composed mostly of gas.
Mercury is not large: it is the smallest of the planets in the solar system.
The large planets of the Solar system are Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus. They are considered gas giants because they consist mostly of gas with no solid surface.
Personally I'd call anything that is large enough to rotate around the Sun is a planet. However, that causes "loads" of problems, orbits and mass etc. If that criteria was used we'd have hundreds/thousands of planets and sooo many problems. The current criteria makes sense and should be used. It matters not if an "object" in space is a planet, dwarf, asteroid or comet - it's nothing more than a "lump" of something orbiting the Sun.
