- Asteroid Belt - Asteroids are rocky and metallic objects that orbit the Sun but are too small to be considered planets. They are known as minor planets. Asteroids range in size from Ceres, which has a diameter of about 1000 km, down to the size of pebbles.
Gas Giants
- Jupiter (OMa5) - Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and is the largest one in the solar system. If Jupiter were hollow, more than one thousand Earths could fit inside. It also contains more matter than all of the other planets combined. It another planet with colonies.
- Saturn (OMa6) - Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun and is the second largest in the solar system. Saturn is surrounded by a beautiful system of rings. Saturn is the only planet less dense than water in the OMa system. In the unlikely event that a large enough ocean could be found, Saturn would float in it. Saturn is the last planet in the OMa system to support colonies.
