An overview of the Solar System (described as the scale size of the planet, while the distance is not): The Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Ceres, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Haumea, Makemake and Eris.


Solar System [a] is ​​a collection of celestial bodies composed of a star called the Sun and all the objects bound by gravity.

Since mid-2008, there are five celestial objects classified as dwarf planets. Orbit dwarf planets except Ceres, was farther than Neptune. It is the fifth dwarf planet Ceres (415 million km. In the asteroid belt; formerly classified as the fifth planet), Pluto (5906 million km.; Formerly classified as the ninth planet), Haumea (6450 million km), Makemake (6850 million km), and Eris (10 100 million km).
Six of the eight planets and three of the five dwarf planets surrounded by natural satellites. Each planet outer planet is surrounded by a ring consisting of dust and other particles.
