The large mass of a star provides enough magnitude to its centripetal force for maintaining every near and, importantly, the far distant orbiters of its system, in the respective orbits.
Explanation:
It is the centripetal attraction from the a star that keeps every space body of the star-system in an orbit, around the star. This force varies directly as the mass of the star and is also proportional to
So the large mass of the star provides enough magnitude in the force for maintaining the far distant constituents of its system in the respective orbits. As a matter of fact, the mass of a star mass is one of the parameters that decides the edge of its system
Sun's mass is about 330000 X Earth's. .
