The document summarizes key aspects of our solar system. It states that the sun is at the center and there are eight planets that revolve around it in fixed orbits. It introduces the terrestrial planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars that are closer to the sun and have solid surfaces and few satellites. The jovian planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are further from the sun, are gaseous giants that have rings and many satellites. Asteroids occupy the orbit between Mars and Jupiter and include Ceres, Pallas, Juno and Vesta. Comets revolve around the sun in elliptical orbits and consist of condensed gas. Meteors are small parts of asteroids that plunge to
