1. Our planetary system is called “the solar system” because we use the word “solar” to describe things related to our star, after the Latin word for Sun, "solis." ; 2. Our solar system orbits the center of the Milky Way galaxy at about 515,000 mph (829,000 kph). ; 3. It takes our solar system about 230 million years to complete one orbit around the galactic center. ; 4. The hottest planet in our solar system is Venus, even though Mercury is closer to the Sun.
