Comprehensive overview of the Solar System. The Sun, planets, dwarf planets and moons are at scale for their relative sizes, not for distances. A separate distance scale is at the bottom. Moons are listed near their planets by proximity of their orbits; only the largest moons are shown. Only the largest moons are shown. Date: 29 May 2018 ...
English: This 10 billion to 1 scale model of the Solar system can be placed into hallways of most school buildings. The inner solar system can be placed inside, while some or all of the the outer planets are typically placed outside, with Neptune at a distance of 450 meters from the Sun. Students can copy the drawings by hand on index cards or cut them out and glue or tape to the cards.
Diagram of the early Solar System's protoplanetary disk, out of which Earth and other Solar System bodies formed. The Solar System formed at least 4.568 billion years ago from the gravitational collapse of a region within a large molecular cloud. [b] This initial cloud was likely several light-years across and probably birthed several stars. [14]
Solar System – gravitationally bound system comprising the Sun and the objects that orbit it, either directly or indirectly. Of those objects that orbit the Sun directly, the largest eight are the planets (including Earth), with the remainder being significantly smaller objects, such as dwarf planets and small Solar System bodies.

English: An Euler diagram showing the IAU Executive Committee conception of the relationship between objects in the Solar System. The central star has been excluded. Also excluded are artificial satellites. Cosmic dust found within the Solar System falls under two categories depicted here: Small Solar System bodies and natural satellites.

Euler diagram showing the types of bodies orbiting the Sun. The following is a list of Solar System objects by orbit, ordered by increasing distance from the Sun. Most named objects in this list have a diameter of 500 km or more. The Sun, a spectral class G2V main-sequence star; The inner Solar System and the terrestrial planets. 2021 PH27; Mercury
