Read more →A moon is a natural satellite orbiting a planet or a more massive object, playing an important role in gravitational balance and tidal phenomena.
Read more →An asteroid is a rocky body orbiting a star, often located in zones of gravitational transition, smaller than planets and lacking an atmosphere.
Read more →A comet is an icy small body orbiting a star, developing a coma and a tail when approaching stellar radiation.
Read more →A dwarf star is a type of star with small size and low luminosity, belonging to the longest or final phases of stellar evolution, with highly diverse structural characteristics.
Read more →A terrestrial planet is a solid celestial body characterized by a rocky surface, high density, and a differentiated internal structure.
Read more →A gas giant planet is a massive celestial body without a solid surface, mainly composed of hydrogen and helium, with an internal structure governed by pressure and phase transitions.
Read more →An ice giant planet is a massive celestial body primarily composed of water, methane, and ammonia, with a layered internal structure and a complex atmosphere.
