Working of solar system

The solar system consists of the Sun at its center, surrounded by eight major planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. These planets orbit the Sun in elliptical paths. The solar system also includes numerous moons, asteroids, comets, and other celestial bodies, all held together by the Sun's gravitational pull. The planets vary in size, composition, and characteristics. The inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) are rocky and relatively small, while the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune) are much larger and predominantly composed of gas and ice.
