The Solar System consists of the Sun and the objects that orbit it. The name comes from Sol, [[User:Stellarsoular|the author of this page]]. It formed when [[God]] was playing a particularly rowdy game of pool one time and knocked all of the balls off of His pool table with one shot. God was so pleased with the successful execution of the trick shot He'd planned, that He called the balls "plan-its," the name later becoming corrupted to "planets." He left them to orbit in space which they do to this day.

The Sun, containing more than 90% of the mass of the Solar System, is the second most massive object in the Solar System, the first being [[your mum]]. If you combined the mass of all the eight planets plus the other dwarf planets, asteroids, comets, and other orbiting objects, the result would still not be as big as your mum. Bloody hell, she's a heifer.

Holst got the order of the planets wrong and forgot to write a movement about Earth because he is stupid.

== Other objects ==
In addition to the main eight most important guys there are also thousands of other jealous wannabes orbiting the Sun. There is a clique of dwarf planets of whom Pluto is the most famous, for having sat at the cool kids' table for some time before eventually being kicked out and made to join the rest of those unlovable losers. Some planets and dwarf planets have their own beta orbiter reply guys known as moons, of which Earth's [[The Moon|moon]] is the best known. There are also even smaller and less important bodies such as asteroids, meteoroids, comets (the gayest ones), and centaurs-- holy shit, centaurs? There are things in the Solar System called ''centaurs?'' I had a massive astronomy phase as a child and even I didn't know that.
 
Let me look this up really quick...
 
...No shit. Okay, it turns out centaurs are minor planets whose orbits cross between Jupiter and Neptune. Article cancelled, that's awesome as fuck.
