The Solar System

Heliocentric - Sun-centred

Geocentric - Earth-centred

The ancient view was that the Earth is fixed at the centre of the Universe and everything else revolves around it. That is the geocentric view and astronomers still use geocentroc coordinates to describe the positions of objects in the night sky, because these are the numbers that are needed to set up a telescope.

Starting with Copernicus in 1543 the heliocentric idea that the Earth revolves round the Sun began to gain currency, and in 1609 Kepler produced a new innovative model that had the Sun at the centre and the planets in elliptical orbits.

In 1687 with the publication of Newton's laws of motion and the laws of gravity Kepler's model was shown to be based on good theoretical principles, with the planets' elliptical orbits resulting from the Sun's gravitational force.

With the exception of minuscule adjustments due to Einstein's General Theory of Relativity, Kepler's model is still the one that is used today.

They are in all three. Planets are in solar systems. There are lots of solar systems in a galaxy. There are lots of galaxies in the universe. So any planet is in a solar system, a galaxy and the universe.

No, the world is a part of the solar system

Because solar can absorb higher sun rays

You can use kilometers if you like. On the other hand, distances within the Solar System are often quoted in AU (astronomical units), where 1 astronomical unit is the distance from Sun to Earth. Such distances are easier to visualize.

Uranus was discovered by William Herschel, a German living in England in 1781. This was the first planet not seen by the naked eye and it's an interesting planet: it might be raining diamonds and it's moons are named for Shakespeare characters!

No. It is the reddest object in the Solar System. The second reddest object is Mars.

He apologized and said he was wrong

There are two reasons. First, since they are farther from the sun they have longer orbital path. Second at a greater distance from the sun the sun's gravity is weaker, giving the outer planets a slower orbital speed.

No. Our solar system is part of the MIlky Way galaxy. It's just kind of on an outer edge, and the galaxy is immense (like 100 billion stars or so), so we can still see the rest of it, even though we're part of it.

No - the moons in my solar system are not similar in appearance. Most are spherical (if the are big enough) but some, like the 2 moons of Mars, are more potato shaped, since they are not big enough to have enough gravity to form spheres.

Of the eight planets in our solar system (ignoring Pluto and other dwarf or minor planets), Mars is second smallest... only Mercury is smaller. Mars is about 53% of the diameter of Earth (about 15% of the volume), also about fifteen percent of its mass. Standing on its surface you'd feel a little under 2/5ths of Earth's surface gravity.

Gravity, mainly.

The terrestrial planets are composed primarily of silicate rocks or metals. They have a solid surface. The gas giants are composed mostly of hydrogen, helium, and water existing in various physical states.

Because of their distance from the sun

Jupiter.

As far as we know, Earth is the only planet that supports life, but there have been many studies that show that some other planets have either supported life previously or could be capable of supporting life.

1108 Demeter - is part of the Asteroid belt, located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.

Gravity is an attraction of masses to each other. The mass of the Sun is very great and it pulls on all the planets. If there were nothing to stop this attraction the planets would be pulled into the Sun. But, just like whirling a ball around your head with a string and the ball stays out at the end of the string the planets whirling (well, rotating) around the Sun keeps them from falling into the Sun. The pull (attraction) of the Sun is like the string. This pull is called the centripetal force. If you cut the string the ball would fly off. The rotation of the planets makes them want to fly off too. This urge to fly off is called the centrifugal force. When the centripetal force equals the centrifugal force the planet is in a stable orbit.

It is gravity.

According to modern understanding, the planets, and the Sun, move around the Solar System's center of mass. Since the Sun is much more massive than the planets, this center of mass is very close to the Sun.

If the Sun is much larger than any of the planets, it seems likely that it also has a greater mass - assuming that their respective densities are somewhat similar. And indeed, this is the case here.

The way its spelled - like waxing your car.

There is no such thing as a telecentric model.
