The solar system is the Sun and the many objects that orbit it.
These objects include eight planets, at least five dwarf planets and countless asteroids, meteoroids and comets.
Orbiting some of the planets and dwarf planets are over 160 moons. The Sun keeps its surrounding objects in its orbit by its pull of gravity, which has an influence for many millions of kilometres.
