The Solar System is the only galaxy in the Milky Way that has lifeThat's exactly what makes it unique. Our solar system is as unique as snow in a blizzard.
The solar system is basically one star (sometimes several) with only a little rubble left. Our sun not only accounts for the mass of the solar system, but its "noise" is also proportional. Although there may be a small number of radio antennas on Earth that send signals into space, the Sun is a deafening ball of electromagnetic noise nearly a million miles in diameter.
It's not for nothing: it's really bright.
We are now living in the century of planetary discovery. Every civilization knows six planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn.
Uranus, Neptune, and Ceres were discovered in the 19th century. Pluto and the original exoplanets were discovered in the 20th century. But in the first half of this century, we discovered dozens of new dwarf planets in our solar system and thousands of exoplanets in other solar systems.
The rate of discovery is growing exponentially.
The methods we use to detect planets around other stars are much better at detecting large planets (which is not surprising) and planets close to the stars. Therefore, the easiest planet to find is "hot Jupiter". But based on what we've seen so far, it looks like every star in the sky, even binary and three-star, orbits the planet.
Although it is difficult to find any planets, we have confirmed that there are hundreds of planets in hundreds of solar systems (which strongly implies that almost all solar systems have multiple planets). This is based on observing only a small part of the sky and ignoring most of the planets.
So the point is that it's hard to see the planets around other stars, and we miss most of them and only see a small fraction of the stars nearby. However, we find strange planets everywhere. Large, Small, Hot, Cold, Loki, Gaseous, Short Year, Year of the Dragon, Dry or Wet.
The astonishing diversity and dominance of planetary species has completely rewritten our understanding of the formation of planets and solar systems.
We used to think that the solar system would more or less "follow the same script" in its formation and eventually become a variant of ourselves. On the contrary, we find that each one is surprising and unique.
-
The solar system is in the Milky Way, especially because of the existence of life in the solar system.
-
The solar system is very small in the Milky Way, and the solar system is only a very small part of the Milky Way.
-
It may be that the solar system is currently the only one in the Milky Way that has an Earth.
-
I think the solar system is the only living thing in the Milky Way, and that is our human being.
-
The sun shines brightly, which is unique to the entire universe.
-
This is mainly because it can emit light, and this one is still relatively peculiar.
-
Because the solar system has water and air, and the other planets don't seem to have any.
-
His unique feature is that he can shine brightly, and he is bigger than any other planet.
-
Maybe it's nothing special, it's just that a living place on Earth was born.

Galaxy. The Milky Way is the star system where the solar system is located, including 120 billion stars and a large number of star clusters, nebulae, as well as various types of interstellar gas and interstellar dust. It has a diameter of about 100,000 light-years, a center thickness of about 12,000 light-years, and a total mass of solar mass.
140 billion times.
For example, for example, the Milky Way is an egg, and the solar system is the yolk in it, but it is not the center of the Milky Way, the sun is on an arm spiral of the Milky Way, 27,700 light-years away from the center of the Milky Way, and revolves around the center of the galaxy at a speed of 250 kilometers per second.
In other words, the sun that we can see and touch every day is actually just a component of the Milky Way, and the earth where we are located is a component of the solar system.
-
Because the solar system is in the Milky Way.
There are hundreds of billions of stars like the sun in the Milky Way, and the sun is just one of the ordinary stars. So, the Milky Way includes the solar system.
The milky way galaxy (English: milky way galaxy), is a type of spiral galaxy (a type of spiral galaxy) where the solar system is located, in the shape of an elliptical disk, with a huge disk structure, the latest research shows that the Milky Way has four clear and fairly symmetrical spiral arms, the spiral arms are 4500 light-years apart. The number of stars in the Milky Way is between 100 billion and 400 billion.
The Milky Way as a whole has a poor rotation. The rotation speed at the Sun is about 220 kilometers per second, and the Sun orbits around the galactic center for about 100 million years. The visual absolute magnitude of the Milky Way is equal, and the total mass of the Milky Way is about a trillion times the mass of the Sun.
The age of the Milky Way is about 10 billion years old, and the scientific community believes that the universe occurred about 13.8 billion years ago.
The Milky Way has two companion galaxies: the Large Magellanic Galaxy and the Small Magellanic Galaxy. They are all members of the local group of galaxies and are part of the Virgo Supercluster; It is part of the Laniakea Supercluster.
The Milky Way galaxy is composed from the inside to the outside, including the galactic heart, the galactic core, the galactic disk, the galactic halo, and the galactic crown. Most of the Milky Way** regions are old stars (mainly white dwarfs), and the outer regions are mostly nascent and young stars. There are more than a dozen satellite galaxies scattered around an area of hundreds of thousands of light-years, and the Milky Way grows by slowly devouring the surrounding dwarf galaxies.
-
Judging from your description, you lack a holistic understanding of the relationship between the solar system and the Milky Way, which is the relationship between the contained and the included.
-
Because the leaves are on the branches. That is, the solar system resembles a leaf, and the Milky Way galaxy resembles a branch.
-
The Solar System is located in the Milky Way, which in turn is one of many galaxies. When we look at the night sky, with so many stars, we may be particularly curious, why are there only eight planets in the solar system? Aren't these stars that we see also very bright and very bright?
Aren't they included, and can we see the so-called eight planets with the naked eye? In fact, these celestial bodies we see, except for the eight planets and some celestial bodies, are basically stars, because stars shine brightly and are easier for us to see.

Both the Milky Way and the Solar System refer to some type of celestial structure, with the former being a star system and the latter being a planetary system.
Space is not a celestial structure, but a spatial scope, which generally refers to all space outside the earth's atmosphere, including other cosmic objects in space, so space is not "empty".
In space, a system in which one or more planets (including their moons), asteroids, comets, and dust debris revolve around the central star and are attracted by the strong gravitational pull of the central star, called a planetary system.
Our planetary system consists of eight planets (including Earth's own discovered moons, five dwarf planets, a comet (Halley) and hundreds of millions of small bodies. Together with the central star, the Sun, they are known as the Solar System.
In space, many stars, planetary systems, nebulae, and cosmic dust are attracted by the strong gravitational pull of the central black hole, forming a collection of celestial bodies with an "island" structure, collectively known as the star system.
The Milky Way is a star system with about 400 billion light stars, and the Sun is one of them.
Of course, there are more taxonomic names in astronomy than the Milky Way. The sequence is subgroups of galaxies, local groups of galaxies, superclusters (subdividable), whole galaxies, Hubble volumes, and the universe.
As for the solar system, this huge galaxy is considered familiar to everyone. Without the solar system, there would be no humans. The solar system is a small galaxy where the Earth and other galaxies are located.
The realm of the solar system includes the Sun, four Earth-like inner planets, an asteroid belt of many small rocks, four giant outer planets filled with gas, and a small region of celestial bodies filled with frozen small rocks known as the Kuiper Belt. The solar system accounts for 99% of the mass of the sun, and the diameter of the sun is about 700,000 kilometers, which is the source of the solar system, so the sun is the core of the solar system.
Therefore, the Sun is just an ordinary small-mass star in the Milky Way. There are hundreds of billions of sun-like stars in the Milky Way. The Milky Way is just one of hundreds of billions of galaxies in the universe.
There are hundreds of billions of star systems the size of the Milky Way in the observable universe, and these star systems exist in space. Together, these hundreds of billions of galaxies make up our observable universe.
The closer you are to the sun, the stronger the effect. So Pluto and a number of other distant objects that cross Neptune in and out of the Kuiper Belt are orbiting farther and farther away from the equatorial plane and the Sun. Ultimately their orbits are completely random in this regard, like long-period comets.

Both the Milky Way and the Solar System refer to some type of celestial structure, where the Milky Way is a star system and the Solar System is a planetary system. The solar system and the Milky Way are subordinate, and the Milky Way contains the solar system. These star systems are all contained in space and together make up our observable universe.
-
Both the Milky Way and the Solar System refer to certain types of celestial structures. The former is a stellar system and the latter is a planetary system. Space is not a celestial structure, but a spatial scope, which generally refers to all space outside the earth's atmosphere, including other cosmic objects in space, so space is not "empty".
In space, a system in which one or more planets (including their moons), asteroids, comets, and dust debris revolve around the central star and are attracted by the strong gravitational pull of the central star is called a planetary system.
-
The difference between the Milky Way, the Solar System and Space is that they refer to different ranges, the Sun is part of the Milky Way, and there are many galaxies in the Milky Way that are similar to the Solar System, while the Milky Way is a part of the universe, and there are many Milky Ways in the universe.
-
Because the solar system and the Milky Way are subordinate, the Milky Way contains the solar system. The Sun is essentially a star, and the movement of various celestial bodies, including planets, comets, and asteroids, is constrained by the gravitational pull of the Sun, and this whole collection is the solar system.
In addition to the Sun, there are celestial bodies such as planets around other stars. Stars including the Sun and the celestial bodies around them, as well as clouds of dust and gas and dark matter that permeate interstellar space, are combined by gravity to form a huge aggregate called the Milky Way. Just as the celestial bodies in the solar system move around the center of the solar system, the stars in the Milky Way move around the galactic center, and it takes more than 200 million years for the sun to move around the galactic center.
In short, the solar system is located in the Milky Way.
There is no exact theory as to when humans discovered the Milky Way. As early as the 5th century BC, ancient Greek scientists proposed that the bright bands of light in the night sky may have been composed of stars. At the beginning of the 17th century, the Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei discovered through a telescope that the bright bands of light in the sky were actually composed of many faint stars.
In the mid-18th century, the German philosopher Immanuel Kant speculated that the Milky Way was a gravitationally held together whole by a large group of stars, and that nebulae were separate galaxies, which he collectively called cosmic islands. At the end of the 18th century, the British astronomer Herschel first described the shape of the Milky Way and believed that the solar system was at the center of the Milky Way. At the beginning of the 20th century, the American astronomer Shapley discovered that the solar system was actually far away from the center of the Milky Way, and the galactic center was located in the direction of Sagittarius.

Many people may think that human beings are great, but if we compare them with nature, human beings are just a part of nature, and human beings are just a very, very small part of nature. The vastness of this world is unimaginable to human beings, human beings think they are very big, but they are only a very small part of the earth, human beings think that the earth is very big, the earth is just a very small part of the solar system, human beings think that the solar system is very large, but in the end they find that the solar system is just a very small part of the Milky Way, so what galaxy is bigger than the Milky Way?
Human beings like to look up at the starry sky, and when they look up at the starry sky, do they also sigh at the insignificance of human beings? The stars that humans see with the naked eye are so small, but these stars are actually very large, but these stars have to travel a very long distance before they can be seen by the naked eye, so the stars that humans see are very small. However, if you really talk more about these stars and the sun, the sun may not be better than these stars.
The Milky Way contains 150 billion to 400 billion galaxies, and the Sun is only a very small galaxy. In the entire galaxy, the Sun may not be worth mentioning at all. The group of galaxies formed by the Milky Way, which is already 10 million light-years in diameter, is really an eye-opener for many people.
When it comes to the Virgo Galaxy, humanity may be even more surprised to find that the largest galaxy is 1 billion light-years in diameter. Just by looking at these data, human beings can already feel the smallness of the solar system, the smallness of the earth, and the smallness of human beings.
Andromeda Galaxy, dwarf galaxy. IC 1101, NGC 2207, IC 2163, these are other galaxies that I know of.
To answer this question, we must first define "what is the solar system", that is, determine the boundaries of the solar system. Different definitions will have different results. If the orbit of Neptune is the boundary, according to what is said upstairs (if it is in the Milky Way), there should be. >>>More
At the center of the Milky Way is the Silver Heart. The galactic center is the intersection of the Milky Way's axis of rotation and the galactic plane, the center of the galactic core, and the center of the Milky Way. The Silver Heart is located in the direction of Sagittarius. >>>More
It has little to do with the Earth orbiting the Sun. And do you know which calendar is the most accurate reflection of the earth's exact rotation around the sun? It is the solar term in our country's lunar calendar! >>>More
It's just more like it's not really a Tai Chi symbol, here is the beginning and the end of the matter; Scientists have found that behind Saturn's positive rings there is a Saturn ring hidden, and through the radiation detector found a 27-degree inclined plane scientists call Saturn's negative ring, which is no longer the opposite of Saturn's negative rings, Saturn's moon rotates like the moon in China, and the moon can also make people see half of the sun and half of the shadow, which reminds people of the symbol of Tai Chi China. >>>More
