The iron cores in the centers of some planets didn't come into existence in these planets; the iron was created in the supernova explosions of ancient stars, and blasted into space during the explosions. Our solar system including the Sun and all the planets was formed as gravity caused the gas & dust clouds in space to fall together.

We're not sure why the Sun got most of the hydrogen, while the planets were formed from primarily the heavier elements. What we can be sure of is that the core of our Sun isn't nearly hot enough or dense enough to fuse lighter elements into iron, and it's a good thing - because fusing elements heavier than iron would suck energy OUT of the core, and cause the Sun to collapse and then explode in a supernova. That'll never be an issue for us, because the Sun will NEVER be hot and dense enough to do that. It doesn't have enough mass.

Did Nicolaus Copernicus help us understand about your planet and the solar system?

Yes, because he proves that the geocentric model or earth-centered solar system was wrong and claimed that the sun was the center of the solar system and planets and other bodies revolve around it.

Does your whole solar system move?

I guess you mean "our" solar system, or is this a question from an ET? :D Yes, all celestial bodies are in a state of motion relative to each other. Our solar system is revolving around the center of the Milky Way Galaxy, a process that takes millions of years. The galaxy in turn is moving away from other galaxies.

How do the components of the solar system interact?

Firstly, the distances in the solar system are so great that nearly all the interactions are between the Sun and the other bodies. These include gravitational attraction, absorption of electromagnetic radiation from the Sun by other bodies, and interaction of those bodies with the solar wind. Jupiter gives off some radiation, so that should interact with other bodies, and the Earth and Moon reflect light to each other, which should apply to other planets and moons.


What other astronomical bodies exist except planets and satellites in the solar system?
