Also known as celestial body, celestial object, astronomical body, astronomical objects, celestial bodies, celestial objects, astronomical bodies, object

physical body of astronomically-significant size, mass, or role, naturally occurring in a universe

AI overview

An astronomical object is a naturally occurring body in space—like a star, planet, or galaxy—that is large or massive enough to be scientifically important. These objects matter because studying them helps us understand the structure and history of the universe, and in some cases, whether life might exist elsewhere.
