The video tutorial provides an overview of the solar system's components, including the sun, planets, asteroid belt, comets, and moons. It begins with a brief introduction to these components, followed by a detailed description of the sun as the largest object in the solar system, containing 99% of its mass. The tutorial then explains the eight planets, distinguishing between the rocky inner planets and the gas-formed outer planets. The asteroid belt, located between Mars and Jupiter, is highlighted as a separator of the inner and outer planets. Finally, the video discusses comets, which orbit the sun, and moons, which are dark objects reflecting sunlight.
