There is no exact border for solar system.It extends up to Oort's cloud.where Sun's gravity is effective..

Approximately it extends up to 10,0000 astronomical u nits/.

Much more than #2Xaphelion = 2.8 X 10^11 km#. of dwarf planet Sedna.

At aphelion = 936 AU, the solar orbiter that travels the farthest is

the dwarf planet Sedna. Therefore, the solar system ought to be more expansive.

than 2(aphelion of Sedna) = #2.8 X 10^11 km##.

Yet, in my opinion, it should be as wide as nearly 4 light years = #3.8

X 10^13# km. This estimate comes from zero-gravity edge as

halfway between the Sun and Alpha Centauri, the closest star, at

4.246 light years separate us from Earth.

#1 AU = 1495987871 km and#

#1 light year = 299792 X 3600 X 24 X 365.25 km = #9.46 X 10 ^ 12 km#.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
