What else can I help you with?
Is earth part of the oort cloud?
No. Earth is part of the inner solar system. The Oort cloud, if it exists, lies beyond the orbits of all the planets.
What is the largest desert in space?
The largest desert within our own solar system is the planet Mars. What lies beyond our own solar system is unknown
What is an area at the edge of the solar system?
The area at the edge of the solar system is known as the heliopause. It marks the point where the solar wind from the Sun meets the interstellar medium of the galaxy. It is where the influence of the Sun ends and the influence of interstellar space begins.
What do you think lies beyond the heliopause?
Beyond the heliopause lies interstellar space, where the influence of our Sun's solar wind and magnetic field diminishes. Scientists are interested in studying this region to learn more about the interaction of our solar system with the interstellar medium. It is a frontier where the characteristics of our solar system meet the vast expanse of the galaxy.
True or false the heliopause marks the end of the solar system?
FALSE. The outer edge of the "Oort Cloud" of comets marks the end of the Solar System.
What is the name of the largest known celestial body belonging to the Solar system that lies beyond the orbit of Pluto?
The largest known celestial body beyond the orbit of Pluto in our Solar System is Eris. It is a dwarf planet that was discovered in 2005 and is even more massive than Pluto.
Is the Solar System smaller than Jupiter?
No, the planet Jupiter lies within our Solar System.
Is earth part of your outer solar system?
Earth is part of the inner solar system, as it's only the third planet from the Sun. Mercury is the closest, followed by Venus and then Earth, with Mars the fourth planet from the Sun. The outer solar system probably begins with Jupiter, as it lies considerably further away than the first four planets do to each other.
Does the sun have a positison in the solar system?
The sun lies right in the centre (middle) of the solar system x
Is the sun the center of your solar system true or false?
TRUE!!!! All the planets in the Solar system including Earth orbit the Sun, in ellipses. The Sun lies at one of the foci of these ellipses, NOT the centre. So the Sun is NOT at the 'dead' centre of the Solar system.
Where on your solar system does Pluto lie?
Pluto is located in the outer region of our solar system, beyond the orbit of Neptune. It is considered a dwarf planet and is part of the Kuiper Belt, a collection of icy bodies that orbit the Sun beyond the eight major planets.
Beyond the kuiper belt lies a great reservoir of comets called?
the Oort Cloud, which is a spherical shell of icy objects located at the outermost reaches of the solar system. These comets are believed to originate from the early days of the solar system and occasionally get gravitationally nudged towards the inner solar system.
