What is the difference between your galaxy and your solar system?
The word "solar" comes from the Latin meaning sun, therefore a solar system involves a sun ie a star. The term "solar system" commonly refers to a star with planets in orbit around it, although it could technically be applied to binary or triple star systems. The important point is that the word "system" implies a star with at least one other body. A galaxy, however, is another beast altogether. A galaxy consists of hundreds of billions of stars, all of which are potential solar systems. And there are billions of known galaxies.....certainly a humbling thought!
