The Solar System has changed since we grew up learning about the nine planets and little else. Over the past two decades a fleet of probes have made their way to planets, moons and asteroids throughout the Solar System, changing the way we view our Earths neighborhood forever. If you havent taken a close look at the Solar System since school it might be time to take a second look and see what has been discovered and clarified since then. Moons made almost entirely out of ice, a dwarf planet in between Mars and Jupiter with more fresh water than on the entire Earth, new dwarf planets out in the Kuiper Belt past Pluto, a moon with lakes of hydrocarbons and a thicker atmosphere than the Earth, and more.

In summary, the Solar System is much cooler than you remember it so download the app and get up to date while you gasp at the sheer marvel and weirdness of it.
