This category contains modern (post-Newton) theories about Solar System bodies, their formation, and other important, mostly cataclysmic, events that deeply affected the orbits and surfaces of the planets.

Human discoveries and space exploration events belong elsewhere. This is about big boulders tumbling around.

Notes:
Details on the new coding for clickable images is here: [1]
The smaller planets have a bit of an overlap just to ensure they're locatable, especially in the belts.
While it may look strange, it's important to keep the codes for a particular system in order. The clickable coding treats the first object created in an area as the one on top.
- I've placed moons on "top" so that their smaller circles won't disappear "under" their respective planets or dwarf planets.
The "poly" code would be more appropriate for the moons of Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus. However, there appears to be a bug with that aspect of the code.
- I've compensated by using oversized circles for those moon groups, and tucking them UNDER their planets for now.
The Sun is a rectangle as that approximates the edge closely enough for the purposes of this template.
I've guessed as to the boundaries for the KB, SD, and OC - if they need adjustment, load the image into Paint and use the pencil tool to find the appropriate coordinates.
