Relative masses of the Solar planets. Jupiter at 71% of the total and Saturn at 21% dominate the system. Relative masses of the solid bodies of the Solar System. Earth at 48% and Venus at 39% dominate. Bodies less massive than Pluto are not visible at this scale. Relative masses of the rounded moons of the Solar System.
Below are lists of the largest stars currently known, ordered by radius and separated into categories by galaxy. The unit of measurement used is the radius of the Sun (approximately 695,700 km; 432,300 mi). [ 1 ] The Sun, the orbit of Earth, Jupiter, and Neptune, compared to four stars.
Part of a symbiotic binary star system containing a red giant and a white dwarf. As in 2019, with mass 67.54±12.79MJ (0.0523-0.0767 M☉) is the lowest known mass hydrogen-burning star. Luhman 16 B and Luhman 16 A are the closest brown dwarf stars to Earth, and the third-nearest star system to the Solar System.
The outer planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, compared to the inner planets Earth, Venus, Mars, and Mercury at the bottom right The four outer planets, called giant planets or Jovian planets, collectively make up 99% of the mass known to orbit the Sun. [ h ] All four giant planets have multiple moons and a ring system, although only ...
List of largest exoplanets. Jupiter as seen by Voyager 1 in 1979. It is the largest planet having its surface resolved [ 1 ][ 2 ][ 3 ] and it is the largest planet in the Solar System. [ 4 ] Below is a list of the largest exoplanets so far discovered, in terms of physical size, ordered by radius.
Disintegrating planetesimal, likely one of several orbiting its star. Likely about one-tenth the mass of Ceres and ~200 km in radius. [5] Ceres: 0.0742 Shown for comparison: Pluto: 0.1863 Shown for comparison: Moon: 0.2725 Shown for comparison: Kepler-37b: 0.3098 +0.0059 −0.0076: Smallest known exoplanet. [6] [7] PSR B1257+12 b (Draugr) ~0.338
Stars that are at least sometimes visible to the unaided eye have their apparent magnitude (6.5 or brighter) highlighted in blue. The first list gives stars that are estimated to be 60 M ☉ or larger; the majority of which are shown. The second list includes some notable stars which are below 60 M ☉ for the purpose of comparison. The method ...
The planet orbits a star similar to the Sun, named Kepler-37, orbited by a total of four planets. The star has a mass of 0.80 M ☉ and a radius of 0.79 R ☉. It has a temperature of, 5417 K and is 5.66 billion years old. In comparison, the Sun is 4.6 billion years old, [8] and has a temperature of 5778 K. [9]
