What's outside our solar system?
Question:
Answer:
What IS NOT outside our solar system? Most of the matter and energy that we can see is outside of our little oasis on the edge of our Milky Way galaxy, and we know practically nothing about it all. .. which leaves a lot of room for active (but typically harmless and fun) imaginations about aliens and the like. It's funny how hard we try to play "God" in light of our true insignificance in the grand scheme. It's truly humbling, and even spiritually exciting, to look outside our solar system and see the overwhelming magnitude of the space, matter, and energy which lies beyond.
Trillions more solar systems and galaxies.
Other stars in the same galaxy (called milky way) and beyond that other galaxies...
More and other galaxies.
Space, the final frontier...
Other solar systems.
More solar systems. other galaxies... stars, planets, comets... who knows what else. Someday we will have the technology to go and explore the universe.
Aliens And ...
umm...
let me see.
We have other galaxies.
other solar system.
and a hypo circular ring called PO2 in which alien lives.
out side our solar system there are many types of different stars, meteors,meteorites,galaxy,milk... way and other heavenly bodies.
pretty much the rest of the universe thats why we're always hearnig about the galaxy or star constellations. hey if you know of one of those pictures where they have a picture of like 10 easily distinguished galaxy's and they have an arrow pointing and saying you are here could you tell me where you found it?
I heard there is something called Oort's cloud which is about half or one LY from sun. 4,3 LY and it is Proxima Centauri system, which have no planet. 10,6 LY and it is Epsilon Eridane system which the Planet Hunter have shown to have planets.
Even farther you will have the local arm which is called Orion Arm, which is part of a bigger structure called Milky Way galaxy.

Then the Milky Way galaxy is a part of a local cluster of galaxy, which is a part of a supercluster, which is a part of our entire universe.
First, there's the Kuiper belt of asteroids. Then the Oort Cloud of dust. And then open space, with billions of stars, planets, and galaxies.
there is no sharp boundary to the solar system..but it is mostly empty space with sporadic comets and dust clouds.
Marell, son.Did you ever do any research on the Oort cloud or the Milky Way galaxy?
Why don't you look those topics up and read up on them. I know, I know. It's kinda hard to put down the controller to your X-Box and actually learn something. But, you know, if you expand your mental horizons, you will find that life is ever so much more interesting when things start to make sense.
No one can do it for you, and no one can do it as well as you yourself can.
