gökcisminin

Gökcisminin is a term of Turkish origin that translates to "celestial body" or "heavenly body" in English. It refers to any natural object located outside of Earth's atmosphere. This broad category encompasses a wide range of astronomical objects.

The most familiar gökcisminin is the Sun, a star that provides light and heat to our solar system. Planets, such as Earth, Mars, and Jupiter, are also gökcisminin. These celestial bodies orbit stars and are massive enough to be rounded by their own gravity, but have not cleared the neighborhood around their orbit. Moons, also known as natural satellites, are gökcisminin that orbit planets. For instance, our Moon is a gökcisminin orbiting Earth.

Asteroids, which are rocky and metallic objects, and comets, which are icy bodies that develop a tail when near a star, are also considered gökcisminin. Dwarf planets, like Pluto, share characteristics with planets but have not cleared their orbital path of other debris. Furthermore, nebulae, which are vast clouds of gas and dust, and galaxies, immense collections of stars, gas, and dust held together by gravity, are also types of gökcisminin. The study of these gökcisminin falls under the domain of astronomy.
