How many US missions to other solar system objects have there been?

None. There are telescopes that can see other solar systems, like the Hubble telescope. However, the furthest missions have only been to the outer planets. The two voyager spacecraft, sent to Jupiter in 1977, have kept on travelling and are now the furthest objects from earth. To send something to another solar system is practically impossible, given the great distances. At the speeds we can travel, even to get to the edge of our own solar system would take thousands of years. The best we can do in terms of other solar systems is observe them from here or from the telescopes like Hubble.

Why are objects in the solar system different from each other?
Our solar system consists of the sun, the planets, their moons, and a variety of smaller objects. The sun is at the center of the solar system, with other orbiting around it. The force of gravity holds the solar system together.
A star and all the objects that orbit it are?
A solar system.
Which objects in the solar system have been least modified since the formation of the solar system?
Kuiper Belt objects
What keeps the planets and other objects in the solar system in orbit around the sun?
The gravitational force between the sun and each object in the solar system
How do scientist classify small objects in the solar system?
Scientists classify small objects in the solar system by size, shape, and composition
How is Sirius star different from all the other objects in the solar system?
Sirius is not part of our Solar System, so it is not appropriate to talk about "other objects in the solar system".

What is the largest galaxy in the solar system?
There are no galaxies in the solar system. The solar system consists of the sun and the planets and various other objects such as moons, comets, asteroids and other things. Our solar system is in a galaxy called the Milky Way.
What includes the sun planets moons and other objects?
The solar system
Why do the planets and the other objects in the solar system stay in their orbits?
The planets and other objects in the solar system stay in their orbits due to the mutual gravitational attraction between each orbiting object and the Sun.
What are the major objects in your solar system?
Roughly in order of decreasing size and mass, the objects in the Solar System are: the Sun; the planets; moons; dwarf planets; other planetoids; comets.
What term refers to our sun and the objects that orbit around it?
The term used for the sun and the objects that move around it is solar stem. This is what contains the other planets.
What is a group of stars and the planets and other objects orbiting around it?
Solar system
What does gravity have to do with the sun and other objects in the solar system?
it pulls them all together
How does Halley's comet travel through the solar system?
The same way all other objects in the solar system travel, it will be back in 2061.
A star and all the objects that orbit it are?
A solar system.
