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.
720,000 km/h (450,000 mi/h) [ 10] Orbital period. ~230 million years [ 10] The Solar System[ d] is the gravitationally bound system of the Sun and the objects that orbit it. [ 11] It was formed about 4.6 billion years ago when a dense region of a molecular cloud collapsed, forming the Sun and a protoplanetary disc.

The area of Alaska is 18% of the area of the United States and equivalent to 21% of the area of the contiguous United States. The second largest state, Texas, has only 40% of the total area of the largest state, Alaska. Rhode Island is the smallest state by total area and land area. San Bernardino County is the largest county in the contiguous ...
There are eight planets within the Solar System; planets outside of the solar system are also known as exoplanets . Artist's concept of the potentially habitable exoplanet Kepler-186f. As of 25 July 2024, there are 5,741 confirmed exoplanets in 4,285 planetary systems, with 960 systems having more than one planet. [1]
A dwarf planet is a small planetary-mass object that is in direct orbit around the Sun, massive enough to be gravitationally rounded, but insufficient to achieve orbital dominance like the eight classical planets of the Solar System. The prototypical dwarf planet is Pluto, which for decades was regarded as a planet before the "dwarf" concept ...
Radius is in the range of 1.2 – 120 km. [3] Disintegrating planetesimal, likely one of several orbiting its star. Likely about one-tenth the mass of Ceres and ~200 km in radius. [5] Smallest known exoplanet. [6] [7] Least massive known exoplanet, at 0.02 Earth masses. Radius estimated from mass-radius relationship. [8]
