Are there other solar systems in space and what is the name?

Answer 1

A star. --------------------------

Some stars are given numbers and other have Greek, Latin or Arabic names given to them (e.g. Rigel, Polaris, Betelgeuse etc.)

In the case of the sun, the star in the center of our solar system, it has the Latin name of 'Sol' .

Answer 2

Why Yes it does. It's name is Sol. In Latin and other languages, This name refers to as Sun. So that's it's TRANSLATED name. Sun. But yes if your looking for a more practical name but also it's REAL NAME, Then it's Sol.

Answer 3

The Sun is considered a star. It is a medium sized star but you could fit at least 9 Jupiter planets in it. Our sun is small right now compared to the size it will get. One day the sun will actually explode. It will first become a red giant (a stars biggest and final stage in its life) before exploding into dust. When is that day? I don't know for sure. But this is no lie, every star in space does this and when one star dies off, hundreds of years later a new one is made from the dust of the old star.

Answer 4

The Sun is the name of the Sun, it comes from the Latin word Sol

Answer 5

Yes, our sun is called Sol (Latin) and as such we live in the Sol-ar System.

Answer 6

There are other stars with planets but they are only referred to in reference to the parent star. The solar system by name is unique to our Sun, its planets and other heavenly boddies.

Answer 7

No. There is only one sun in our solar system.

Answer 8

It does. The "Solar System" is its name. The phrase "a solar system" may also be used by analogy, for other stars with planets.

Answer 9

Either "The Sun" or "Sol". ("Sol" is Latin for "The Sun".) When there is only one of something, you don't really NEED a name for it.

Answer 10

"The solar system."
