With each mass, she modeled 2 million years of orbit to find what kind of architectural impact each mass would have on our solar system. Specifically, she tracked changes to the other planets ...

The oddball of the solar system, it dips far above and below the pancake-like plane in which the eight planets travel; it swoops on an elongated orbit that takes it from 30 to 50 times Earth’s ...

All of our solar system’s planets are lining in the night sky at once this week. This extraordinary celestial event will see the sky scattered with seven visible planets in what is known as a ...

NEW YORK (AP) — A new Tatooine-like planet outside the solar system may orbit two failed stars, scientists reported Wednesday. Located about 120 light years away, the exoplanet appears to take ...

The Sun is the largest object in the Solar System. The Sun’s huge gravitational field keeps many other objects – planets, dwarf planets, asteroids and comets – in orbit around it.

While most objects in our solar system orbit the same plane, and in the same direction, the orbit of these objects looks like this. Some of them orbit on a slight tilt. Others orbit backwards.
