A lot of bodies move through the solar system are not considered planets: five dwarf planets (the category Pluto was moved into), 10 dwarf planet candidates (but not officially dwarf planets yet), 363 moons, an unknown number of asteroids (estimates vary between tens of thousands to millions), and potentially hundreds of thousands of comets, Kuiper belt and Oort cloud objects. Additionally, we have several artificial space probes moving through The Solar System and two (Voyager 1 and Voyager 2) moving out of the solar system.

∙ 10y agoFirst of all, the two what. I'm thinking that you meant planets and these are Mercury(the closest planet to the Sun), and Venus(the second closest). Third from the Sun would be the Earth.

The other planets - and all other bodies - orbit the earth.

It travels around the sun in the same direction as the other planets. This is considered the "positive" direction.
Has Pluto cleared the neighborhood around its orbit?
Dwarf planets have not cleared their neighbourhood of other object, their neighbourhood being other bodies that are orbiting the sun at the same distance. This is what makes them dwarf planets. If they do clear their neighbourhood (while also being in direct orbit around the sun and being approximately spherical in shape), then they would be calls planets.

Is it true that a star with its orbiting planets is the solar system?

How did nicolous copernocus and galilio find out that the earth moves around the sun?
it was very difficult to understand the retrograde motion of other planets if earth was considered to be at the center of the solar system but it could be easily explained if earth is considered to revolve around the sun along wit other planets. So explanation of retrograde motion of other planets made them realize that earth moves around the sun.
