The Solar System is the gravitationally bound system comprising the Sun and its orbiting components.
- The four gas and ice giants, as well as the four terrestrial planets, are the biggest of the worlds that directly circle the Sun, followed by an unknown number of dwarf planets and countless minor Solar System entities.
- Two of the natural satellites that circle the Sun indirectly are bigger than Mercury, and one is almost as big.
- The Solar System was created 4.6 billion years ago when a massive interstellar molecular cloud collapsed due to gravity.
- The Sun holds the great majority of the mass of the system, with Jupiter holding the vast majority of the remaining mass.
