History of Solar System formation and evolution hypotheses with Uranus having a 98° tilt. The Moon being relatively large with respect to the Earth and other moons which are in irregular orbits with respect to their planet is yet another issue. It is now believed these observations are explained by events which happened after the initial formation of the Solar System. Attempts to isolate the physical source of the Sun's energy, and thus determine when and how it might ultimately run out, began in the 19th century. At that time, the prevailing scientific view on the source of the Sun's heat was that it was generated by gravitational
Minor-planet moon uncertain. There are 5 Jupiter trojans with a moon. Candidate binaries with an unconfirmed status are displayed on a dark background. There are only 2 centaurs with satellites, both of which are ring systems instead of moons. There are 87 trans-Neptunian objects known to have moons, with a total of 93 moons discovered. Candidate binaries with an unconfirmed status are displayed on a dark background. Minor-planet moon A minor-planet moon is an astronomical object that orbits a minor planet as its natural satellite. It is thought that many asteroids and Kuiper belt objects may possess moons, in some cases quite
