The luminous celestial body (star) which provides our solar system with heat & light.

Any of the 8

Dwarf Planet A celestial body resembling a small planet but lacking certain technical criteria that are required for it to be classified as such.

Kuiper Belt A region of the solar system beyond the planets similar to the asteroid belt, but far larger, that contains remnants of the Solar System’s formation.

Rotation The spinning of Earth on its axis that causes day and night to occur.

Revolution Earth’s year-long elliptical orbit around the Sun.

Solar System The Sun together with the planets and other smaller objects that are held by its attraction & revolve around it.
