Each item of the solar system has been assigned, over astronomical discoveries, a name and a symbol (drawing), such as the sun, the moon, the 8 planets of the solar system, but also the dwarf planets.
Apart from the sun and the moon, the symbols are rather unrepresentative and sometimes there are several symbols (depending on the source) for the same star.
For others, use the form at the top of the page.
Do not confuse astronomical symbols and astrological signs.
