Are there other objects in the solar system besides planets?

Yes, there are many other objects in the solar system besides planets. Some of these include moons, asteroids, comets, dwarf planets, and Kuiper Belt objects. Each of these objects plays a unique role in shaping the dynamics of our solar system.


What are three types of bodies in the solar system besides dwarf planets asteroids and planets?

Three types of bodies in the solar system besides dwarf planets, asteroids, and planets are comets, moons, and meteoroids. Comets are icy bodies that release gas and dust as they orbit the Sun, moons are natural satellites that orbit planets or asteroids, and meteoroids are small rocky or metallic bodies that travel through space.


What includes the sun planets moons and other objects?

The solar system


Why do the planets go round the sun and not the moon?

Because the moons are the ones revolvimg around the planets (only some planets have moons, not all). And besides, moons aren't in the center of the solar system. They're even smaller than the planets.


Are the moons as old as the planets that they circle?

In most cases, the moons are about as old as the planets they orbit, perhaps slightly younger. Most objects in the solar system formed when the solar system did.


What is a moon and how does it move around the solar system?

Moons are approximately spherical objects which orbit planets and are smaller than the planets that they orbit, although they are still relatively large objects (so an orbiting dust particle does not qualify as a moon). Since moons orbit planets, their motion around the solar system is controlled by the planets that they orbit; planets orbit the sun, and planets take their moons with them.


What is found in the solar system besides thw sun planets and moons?

There are asteroids, meteoroids and comets.


What are the objects in the solar system?

Planets, Dwarf Planets, moons and ring systems of these planets, Comets, Meteors, Asteroids, The Sun, Kuiper belt objects and the Oort cloud.


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.


How do planets get their moons?

Moons are thought to form from the same material as planets through a process called accretion, where smaller objects like asteroids or planetesimals are pulled together by the planet's gravity. In some cases, moons may also be captured by a planet's gravity from passing objects in the solar system.


How are the planets different from the solar system?

The planets and their moons are part of the solar system, along with the Sun, the asteroids, the comets, the Trans-Neptunian objects and the Oort cloud.


Why are there other plants besides earth and the moon and sun?

The moon and the sun are not planets. Earth and other planets in our solar system orbit around the sun, Sol, and the moon, Luna, orbits Earth. There are other objects, besides the sun and moon, in our solar system because, in the process of star formation, there are almost always (and were, in our case) large clouds of hot gas and dust left over. These accumulated into objects, which in turn accumulated into larger and larger objects, which became planets, asteroids, moons, and comets.
