The Solar System

The Solar System is located in the Milky Way's Orion star cluster. 
The Solar System is made up of the Sun and 8 other planets.
The planets are divided into two categories, based on their composition, Terrestiral and Jovian.
The Terrestrial planets are made of rocky materials, their surfaces are solid, they don't have rings, they have very few moons or none and they are relatively small.
MERCURY
The smallest and closest to the sub Mercury, has the shortest orbit in the Solar System.

The Jovian planets include gas giants and ice giants. The gas giants are predominantly made of helium and hydrogen, and the ice giants also contain rock, ice and a liquid mixture of water, methane and ammonia. All four Jovian planets have multiple moons, sport ring systems, have no solid surface, and are immense.
JUPITER
Its the largest planet in the Solar system.
SATURN
It's the Solar System's second larger planet. It's signature rings are wide enough to fit between Earth and the moon, but are barley a kilometer thick.
URANUS
Rotates on its side.
NEPTUNE
Is one of the coldest planets and the outermost planet in the Solar system.

Orbiting the Terrestrial planets is the Asteroid Belt, a flat disc of rocky objects, full of remnants from the Solar System's formation.
From microscopical dust particles, to the largest known object, the dwarf planet, Ceres.
Another disc of space debris lies much further out, and orbits the Jovian planets, the icy Kuiper Belt. Apart from asteroids, the Kuiper Belt is also home to dwarf planets, such as Pluto, and is the birthplace of many comets.
Beyond the Kuiper Belt is Oort Cloud, a vast, spherical collection of icy debris. It is considered the edge of the Solar System.
The Solar System formed when a cloud of interstellar gas and dust collapsed, resulting in a solar nebula, a swirling disc of material that collided to form the Solar System.
