The solar system consists of the sun and everything that orbits, or travels around, the sun. This includes the eight planets and their moons, dwarf planets, and countless asteroids, comets, and other small, icy objects. However, even with all these things, most of the solar system is empty space. The solar system itself is only a small part of a huge system of stars and other objects called the Milky Way galaxy. The solar system orbits around the centre of the galaxy about once every 225 million years. The Milky Way galaxy is just one of billions of galaxies that in turn make up the universe. The solar system was formed about 4.7 billion years ago. It probably started as a loose cloud of gas and dust. Scientists think that a force called gravity pulled parts of the cloud together into clumps. The largest clump was squeezed together so tightly that it got very hot. This clump eventually became the sun. Over millions of years the other clumps became the planets. The sun’s strong gravity eventually pulled the planets into their orbits. Over time some of the leftover clumps became asteroids, comets, and other small, icy objects. The solar system is also known as a planetary system. Since the 1990s scientists have found many planetary systems beyond our solar system. In these systems, one or more planets orbit a star - just as the eight planets in our solar system orbit the sun. These planets are called extrasolar planets. Finding other planetary systems is not easy, however, because extrasolar planets appear much dimmer than the stars they orbit. As space probes travel farther away from Earth, they are likely to discover more extrasolar planets. A. Match the words or phrases with their meanings. 1. asteroid a. relating to a planet or planets 2. make up b. one of many large rocks that circle the sun 3. clump c. to put something together from several different things 4. planetary d. located outside our solar system 5. extrasolar e. a solid mass of something such as soil B.
