History of Solar System

In the starting years, the concept of solar system was difficult to be understood but later after the detailed study in mathematics and physics in seventeenth century, solar system was accepted. Majorly the idea was accepted that the earth moves around sun.

The objects of inner solar system are close to the sun and the inner planets have dense, rocky composition, few moons, and no ring system. There are metals in the crust like iron and nickel. These are generally four inner planets, that is, Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars.
  • Outer Solar System: The outer solar system consists of the planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

Generally everything in the solar system revolves around the sun as sun consists of the ninety eight percent of the materials available in the solar system. Sun is the head of solar family and compared to millions of other stars it is a medium sized star with average brightness but it appears to be larger and brighter because it is much more nearer to the earth than other stars.

The heat and light energy makes sun shine and the planets and other objects in the sky reflect a part of sunlight falling on them due to which they are visible to us. The earth too reflects the part of sunlight falling on it and that is the reason when we look earth from moon or other planets it looks bright.
