Does every star have its own solar system?

Back in the 1990's, we began to be able to "see" planets about other stars. The nearest stars are so far away that the first evidence that a planet (or planets) orbited them were small observable "shifts" or a "wobble" in the movement of the star (called perturbations). We have now actually been able to see a planet silhouetted against a star! Well over 200 exoplanets (planets outside our solar system) have been catalogued so far, and more are on the way. But does every star have its own solar system? Probably not all of them. But planetary evolutionists believe that because of the way a "solar system" collects mass and "forms itself" to give itself shape under the hand of gravity, there are going to be many stars that do have their own solar systems (planetary bodies) orbiting about them. We'll still have to wait a bit for more data to get some idea of "what the odds are" for a given star having planets about it, but we're working on it! We live in exciting times, do we not?!

Not every star in this universe has planets. As some reasons is that binary stars can't have planets orbiting around it. It's can be possible that some binary stars can have planets if those planets are very far away from it.

Stars for example OUR SUN create light through massive energetic processes. In short they create their own light. Your question is actually quite vague your best bet is to read the reference above on Stars.

No. There's only one star in our solar system. It's the one we call the 'sun'. The next

nearest star to us is about 278,000 times farther away from us than the sun is. None

of the other stars knows or cares that our solar system exists.

No, a galaxy is a group of densely-packed stars.

There's only one star that's a part of our solar system . . . the one we call "the sun".

None of the other stars is anywhere near our solar system.

Yes. Indeed, many stars are part of a multiple star system. But we aren't sure yet if multi-star systems have any stable planets, or if they might be habitable.

We can be absolutely certain that at least some solar systems don't have black holes,

because our own doesn't have one.

What is the name of the star that is the closest to OUR solar system?

After our own Sun, the closest star is called Proxima Centauri.


Does every sun have planets?

yes every sun does have planets because there is only one sun.if you meant stars no not all stars have planetsNot true, every star you see is actually a sun just like our own. Our sun just so happens to be the only star in our solar system and therefore the closest star to us.Does every star have its own solar system?Back in the 1990's, we began to be able to "see" planets about other stars.

What is the hottest star in the solar system?

There is only one star in the solar system that is the sun. So to answer your question the sun is. The sun is a main sequence star also. The hottest stars are blue/white ones followed by stars like our own than the coolest stars are red ones


What planets do asteroids orbit?

The Sun. Although it's highly probable that every solar system has its own asteroids, orbiting their own stars.


What is a solar radii?

A solar radii is used to express the comparison from one star to our own Sun. If a star has a radius of 10.3 solar radii, then it has a radius 10.3 times larger than the Sun

Do every star have their own Solar System?

No one knows for sure. No one has a telescope powerful enough to see every star in the universe


Is there other star in the solar system?

The sun is the only star in the solar system. Stars are extremely conspicuous, and if there was another star in our own solar system, we would notice it.


Why isn't Jupiter its own solar system?

First of all, Jupiter is not a star. It would have to be if it and all its satellites were to be a solar system. Secondly, it itself orbits a star, our sun, so it is in a solar system.


Is the Kepler-22b is part of the solar system?

Not part of our Solar system - but it is believed to be orbiting a star similar to our own.


Are other solar systems the same in your universe?

We strongly suspect that every other solar system will be different, probably RADICALLY different, from our own. Every star is a little different; the mass that coalesced to form the solar system is different, and the unimaginably random factors that caused each solar system to form as it did - those are also different.

Does every planet revolve around earth?

No, none of them do. Planets revolve around stars, so all of the planets in our solar system orbit the Sun, our own star.


Where is the sun at in the Milky Way?

Which Sun? The star Sol, in our own solar system, is in one of the spirals.


What is the biggest magnet in the solar system?

The Sun's own magnetic field - the star is the largest and most active component of the system.


Is the milky way the name of the solar system?

No, the "Milky Way" is the name of our galaxy. Our sun is but a single, solitary star among some two hundred billion or more stars, many of which have their own planets. At last count we know of roughly 300 solar systems besides our own. Our solar system is called simply "Solar system," as our beloved star is called "Sol."
