• Question: Where does the solar system end? Is it after the last designated planet, Neptune, or after Pluto, or does it span beyond the Oort Cloud up to the range of its gravitational pull?

      I hope one of the other scientists has a good answer for this question because I know hardly anything about astronomy. 🙁

      I know almost nothing about astrophysics or astronomy so I can’t tell you… You obviously know a lot more than me, because I’ve never even heard of the Oort Cloud! Hopefully one of the other scientists can answer your question.
      Sorry!
