== On the capitalization of Solar System ==

From the [http://www.iau.org/SPELLING_OF_NAMES.240.0.html International Astronomical Union]

<blockquote>

The IAU formally recommends that the initial letters of the names of individual astronomical objects should be printed as capitals (see the IAU Style Manual, Trans. Int. Astron. Union, volume 20B, 1989; Chapter 8, page S30); e.g., Earth, Sun, Moon, etc. "The Earth's equator" and "Earth is a planet in the Solar System" are examples of correct spelling according to these rules.
