SOLAR SYSTEM
The Solar System is the gravitationally bound system of the Sun and the objects that orbit it, either directly or indirectly. Of the objects that orbit the Sun directly, the largest are the eight planets, with the remainder being smaller objects, the dwarf planets and small Solar System bodies.
Orbital period: 225–250 myr
Orbital speed: 220 km/s; 136 mps
Distance to Galactic Center: 27,000 ± 1,000 ly
Distance to Kuiper cliff: 50 AU
Distance to heliopause: ≈120 AU
Smallest planet: Mercury
287.46 billion km
It is 143.73 billion km from the Sun, thus giving the Solar System a diameter of 287.46 billion km.Jul 16, 2008

Around this time (1704), the term "Solar System" first appeared in English. In 1781, William Herschel was looking for binary stars in the constellation of Taurus when he observed what he thought was a new comet. Its orbit revealed that it was a new planet, Uranus, the first ever discovered.
Colors
Estimates are made of the true visual colors of various planets and moons in the solar system. Account is taken of the components of perceived color, i.e., hue, saturation and lightness. Earth is a blue planet while most of the others, including Mars, are yellow and differ only in their lightness.

Answer:
The Solar System is the gravitationally bound system of the Sun and the objects that orbit it, either directly or indirectly. Of the objects that orbit the Sun directly, the largest are the eight planets, with the remainder being smaller objects, the dwarf planets and small Solar System bodies. the collection of eight planets and their moons in orbit round the sun, together with smaller bodies in the form of asteroids, meteoroids, and comets. The planets of the solar system are (in order of distance from the sun) Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
