NASA’s real-time science encyclopedia of deep space exploration Our scientists and far-ranging robots explore the wild frontiers of our solar system
- In Depth | Our Solar System – NASA Solar System Exploration
The planetary system we call home is located in an outer spiral arm of the Milky Way galaxy Our solar system consists of our star, the Sun, and everything bound to it by gravity – the planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune; dwarf planets such as Pluto; dozens of moons; and millions of asteroids, comets, and meteoroids Beyond our own solar system, there are more planets than stars in the night sky So far, we have discovered thousands of planetary
- Mars By the Numbers - NASA Solar System Exploration
Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun, and the seventh largest It’s the only planet we know of inhabited entirely by robots
- RPS 3D Viewer - NASA Solar System Exploration
NASA’s real-time science encyclopedia of deep space exploration Our scientists and far-ranging robots explore the wild frontiers of our solar system
- In Depth | Moons – NASA Solar System Exploration
Of the terrestrial (rocky) planets of the inner solar system, neither Mercury nor Venus have any moons at all, Earth has one and Mars has its two small moons In the outer solar system, the gas giants Jupiter and Saturn and the ice giants Uranus and Neptune have dozens of moons
- In Depth | Asteroids – NASA Solar System Exploration
In Depth Asteroids, sometimes called minor planets, are rocky remnants left over from the early formation of our solar system about 4 6 billion years ago The current known asteroid count is: Most of this ancient space rubble can be found orbiting our Sun between Mars and Jupiter within the main asteroid belt
- Solar System Exploration
Solar System Facts Our solar system includes the Sun, eight planets, five officially named dwarf planets, hundreds of moons, and thousands of asteroids and comets Our solar system is located in the Milky Way, a barred spiral galaxy with two major arms, and two minor arms
- In Depth | Kuiper Belt – NASA Solar System Exploration
The amount of material in the Kuiper Belt today might be just a small fraction of what was originally there According to one well-supported theory, the shifting orbits of the four giant planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune) could have caused most of the original material -- likely 7 to 10 times the mass of Earth – to be lost
- In Depth | Earths Moon – NASA Solar System Exploration
The brightest and largest object in our night sky, the Moon makes Earth a more livable planet by moderating our home planet's wobble on its axis, leading to a relatively stable climate It also causes tides, creating a rhythm that has guided humans for thousands of years The Moon was likely formed after a Mars-sized body collided with Earth several billion years ago Earth's Moon is the only place beyond Earth where humans have set foot, so far Earth's only natural satellite is simply
- In Depth | Ganymede – NASA Solar System Exploration
The discovery eventually led to the understanding that planets in our solar system orbit the Sun, instead of our solar system revolving around Earth (Jupiter now has 53 named moons and 26 provisional moons awaiting confirmation of discovery)
