User:Cyclopia/Wikitable of natural objects orbiting the Sun

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a sandbox for a sortable wikitable of natural objects orbiting the Sun (planets, dwarf planets and minor planets) with various interesting orbital parameters.

This wants to unify lists and tables on the SS now scattered in WP, like:
