{{Merge|Table of the largest objects in the Solar System|date=August 2008}}
In 2006, the [[International Astronomical Union]] defined a [[planet]] as a body in orbit around the [[Sun]] that was large enough to have achieved [[hydrostatic equilibrium]] and to have [[Clearing the neighborhood|cleared its neighborhood]] of similar-sized objects.<ref name=IAU0603>{{cite press release
This table lists the [[Solar System]]'s planetary bodies, which include [[planet]]s, [[dwarf planet]]s and planetary-sized moons <ref name=planetary>Bodies that are large enough that their shape is determined by gravity, as per the criterion for distinguishing between [[dwarf planet]]s and [[small solar system bodies]], as used for example by [http://www.hull.ac.uk/php/dmsghc/planets/ George Cole]. They are mostly larger than 1000 km in diameter.</ref>

*Relevant references in articles on individual bodies</ref>. It accumulates information about planetary-sized bodies in the Solar system and their properties, focusing on those specific to planetary-sized objects and important for possible future solar system colonization. Internal structure (planetological model) of the bodies, where data exists, is indicated as well. Bodies are grouped by [[planet-satellite system]] and major Solar System regions. The moons follow their primary in order of distance.
|accessdate=2007-12-31}} ([http://www.iau.org/iau0603.414.0.html orig link])</ref> By this definition, there are eight planets in our [[Solar System]], with those objects in orbit around the Sun that had achieved hydrostatic equilibrium but had not cleared their neighborhoods classified as [[dwarf planets]] and the remainder termed [[small Solar System bodies]]. However, many other objects in the Solar System, including up to 20 [[natural satellites]] and potentially several small Solar System bodies, are also large enough to have achieved hydrostatic equilibrium. All known spherical or spheroidal objects in the Solar System other than the Sun are listed below, with a sample of the largest objects in the Solar System whose shape has yet to be accurately determined. Objects are listed in order of their distance from the Sun.
==Planets==
These objects both are large enough to have achieved hydrostatic equilibrium, and have cleared their neighborhoods of similar objects.

==Dwarf planets==
These objects are large enough to have achieved hydrostatic equilibrium, but have not cleared their neighborhoods of similar objects.

==Largest satellites==
This table lists the 20 [[natural satellites]] in the Solar System large enough to have achieved hydrostatic equilibrium. [[Proteus (moon)|Proteus]], though irregular, is nonetheless larger than [[Mimas (moon)|Mimas]], which is spheroid. Satellites are listed first in order from the Sun, and second in order from their parent body.

Revision as of 23:12, 6 October 2008

This table lists the Solar System's planetary bodies, which include planets, dwarf planets and planetary-sized moons [1] [2]. It accumulates information about planetary-sized bodies in the Solar system and their properties, focusing on those specific to planetary-sized objects and important for possible future solar system colonization. Internal structure (planetological model) of the bodies, where data exists, is indicated as well. Bodies are grouped by planet-satellite system and major Solar System regions. The moons follow their primary in order of distance.

Notes

  1. ^ Bodies that are large enough that their shape is determined by gravity, as per the criterion for distinguishing between dwarf planets and small solar system bodies, as used for example by George Cole. They are mostly larger than 1000 km in diameter.
  2. ^ Sources:
  3. ^ Calculated as .
  4. ^ Combined surface area of all objects in the system that have a solid surface and exceed 900 km in diameter.
