celestial bodies
Stars and planets
Celestial bodies are natural objects in space—stars, planets, moons, asteroids, comets.
The term appears in astronomy and astrology alike: The ancients tracked celestial bodies to predict seasons and fates.
Celestial means of the sky or heavens, so celestial bodies are literally heavenly bodies, the objects that populate the night sky.
