The solar system: it’s big, it’s heliocentric, and it’s got space junk to spare. In this episode of The List Show, Erin (@erincmccarthy) shares 22 out of this world facts about the corner of space that’s home to Earth, enough asteroids to keep Ben Affleck working for decades, and a football-shaped dwarf planet called Haumea.
