The Sol System, otherwise referred to by UNSC personnel as the Solar System, is the home star system for Humans. The system's G-class star is named Sol, hence the system's name and the planets (and their moons) that orbit Sol are:

Major Planets and Moons

  • Mercury
  • Venus
  • Earth - The Human/UNSC homeworld.
  • Mars
  • Jupiter - A gas giant, Jupiter is the largest planet in the Sol System.
  • Saturn - A gas giant known for its clearly visible surrounding rings, unlike the other gas giants whose rings are rather dim. Saturn is the second largest planet in the Sol System.
  • Uranus - An icy gas giant about twice as far away as Saturn from Sol.
  • Neptune - Furthest away from Sol, it is another icy gas giant similar to Uranus.

Dwarf Planets

  • Ceres- The largest asteroid to have been discovered by humanity.
  • Eris- Currently the largest Dwarf Planet known. It is at almost 10% larger than Pluto in diameter.
  • Pluto - Pluto Slipstream Monitoring Station Democritus. On November 3, 2552, the Monitoring Station detects Cortana's signal in Slipspace with Dr. Halsey's message to Lord Hood.
