Here's a breakdown:
* Sun: The star at the center of our solar system, providing light and heat.
* Planets: Celestial bodies orbiting the sun, large enough to have cleared their neighborhood of other objects. Our solar system has 8 planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
* Other Objects: The solar system also includes smaller objects like:
* Moons: Natural satellites that orbit planets.
* Asteroids: Rocky bodies mostly found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
* Comets: Icy bodies that orbit the sun in highly elliptical paths.
* Dust and Gas: Scattered throughout the solar system.
So, while the sun and planets are the main components, the solar system is a complex system with many other objects.
