== Material to be used ==
In the Solar System often there is a Solar Wind. This is a flow of [[Plasma (physics)|Plasma]]. The Solar System is located in one of the arms of the Milky Way galaxy. The Milky Way galaxy contains about 200 billion (200,000,000,000) stars.

== Trans-Neptunian region ==
The area beyond [[Neptune]] is called the "[[trans-Neptunian object|trans-Neptunian region]]" (Latin: ''trans'' prep + acc - across, over, beyond). 
It remains largely unexploredWe have not explored here very much. It has a large number of small worlds, theybodies. These bodies are mostly made up of rock and ice. This region is oftensometimes called the "outer Solar System", though it isthose words are used more often forto describe the region beyond the [[asteroid belt]].

=== Kuiper belt ===
The [[Kuiper belt]] is made up of debris [[wikt:similar|similar]] to the asteroid belt. However, it is mostly made up of ice and can be found between 30 and 50 [[AU]] from the Sun. Inside the Kuiper belt are three [[dwarf planet]]s and [[Small solar system body|small Solar System bodies]]. Many of the largest Kuiper belt objects such as [[Quaoar]], [[Varuna]] and [[Orcus]], may be reclassified as dwarf planets. There are over 100,000 Kuiper belt(contracted; show full)

Eris (68 AU) is the largest known scattered disc object. There has been a debate on weather or not it should be described as a planet. This is because it is 25% more larger and about the same diameter of Pluto. It is the largest known dwarf planet in the Solar System. It has one moon, [[Dysnomia]]. Eris and Pluto have a similar orbit.
