Outline of the Solar System

The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to the Solar System: 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.

Of the objects that orbit the Sun indirectly, the moons, two are larger than the smallest planet, Mercury.

From largest to smallest structure: Discovery and exploration of the Solar System – Formation and evolution of the Solar System – The number of currently known, or observed, objects of the Solar System are in the hundreds of thousands.

Many of them are listed in the following articles: Solar System → Local Interstellar Cloud → Local Bubble → Gould Belt → Orion Arm → Milky Way → Milky Way subgroup → Local Group → Local Sheet → Virgo Supercluster → Laniakea Supercluster → Local Hole → Observable universe → UniverseEach arrow (→) may be read as "within" or "part of".
