What consists of a star and all bodies in orbit around it?
A star and all the bodies that orbit it is called a, "Star System". The star system that we live in has been named . . . we call it the Solar System, because the name of our star (The Sun) is "Sol".
What are large bodies of rock or gas that revolve around a star called?
Large bodies of rock or gas that revolve around a star are planets.
What is a collection of large and small bodies that orbit your central star?
A collection of large and small bodies that orbit a central star is known as a solar system. This system typically includes planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and other celestial objects, all bound by gravitational forces. The central star, often a sun, provides the energy necessary for sustaining life on planets and influences the orbits of the surrounding bodies.
What consist of a star and all the bodies in orbit around the star?
A solar system.

What are large bodies of rock or gas that revolve around a star called?
Large bodies of rock or gas that revolve around a star are planets.
What are the major bodies that orbit a star?
The major bodies that orbit a star like our Sun are planets, moons, asteroids, and comets. These objects are held in orbit by the star's gravitational pull and follow distinct paths around the star.
What is true about planets and asteroids?
Planets are large celestial bodies that orbit a star and have cleared their orbit of other objects, while asteroids are smaller rocky or metallic bodies that also orbit a star but have not cleared their orbit. Planets are typically round due to their gravitational pull, while asteroids can have irregular shapes.
What consist of a star and all the bodies in orbit around the star?
A solar system.
Is it true that a star with its orbiting planets is the solar system?
Yes, the solar system consists of a large central star (called the sun for our solar system), with planets that ore in orbit around it. There are other bodies in orbit around the sun also, such as minor planets, asteroids, comets, and other small objects.
Why are moons and planets different?
Planets are bodies that orbit a central star (in our case, the Sun), and moons are smaller bodies that orbit planets.
What consists of a star and of the bodies in orbit around it?
A solar system.
What consists of a star and all of the bodies in orbit it?
a "solar system".
Is a moon considered a planet?
No, a moon is not considered a planet. Moons are natural satellites that orbit planets. Planets are celestial bodies that orbit a star and do not orbit other celestial bodies.
What orbits a star?
Planets, moons, comets, and asteroids can orbit a star. These celestial bodies are held in place by the gravitational pull of the star they orbit, following a specific path around it known as an orbit. The characteristics of an orbit, such as its shape and distance from the star, depend on the mass of the object and the gravitational force acting upon it.
