An '''''extrasolar object''''' ({{ety|la|extra|outside or beyond||solaris|of the [[Sun]]}}) is an [[astronomical object]] that exists outside the [[Solar System]]. It is not applied to stars, or any other celestial object that is larger than a star or the Solar System, such as a [[galaxy]]. The terms for extrasolar examples of Solar System bodies are:

* [[Extrasolar planet]], also called an "exoplanet"
* [[Extrasolar moon]], also called an  "exomoon"
* [[Exocomet]], an extrasolar comet
* [[Exoasteroid]], an extrasolar asteroid

Some Solar System object classes, such as [[minor planet]]s, [[dwarf planet]]s and [[Trans-Neptunian object]]s have not been detected outside the Solar System.
