Solar system By aly whaley The sun • The sun is 9,940 degrees Fahrenheit. The larger the object the more mass it has that’s the same with gravity and that’s why our planets orbit the sun Mercury • Even though it is the closet planet to the sun it is 36 million miles away. Mercury moves at 107,373 miles per hour. Don’t you wish your car went that fast. Venus • Venus is the brightest and hottest planet in the solar system. Venus is 67 million miles away. Venus has a temperature of 864 degrees Fahrenheit. • Venus can be seen from earth in the day. Earth • Earth is the only planet that you can see with a naked eye (if your in space ) that has bodies of water on it. Earth is 93 million miles away from the sun. Earth has 21% oxygen in its atmosphere. Mars • Mars has the largest mountain in the whole solar system Olympus mons is more than fifteen feet high. • mars is nicknamed the red planet • Mars in Greek is named after the god of war Jupiter • Jupiter is the first of the gas giants • There is a permanent (but always changing) whirlpool of storms bigger the earth. • Jupiter is composed of helium, hydrogen, ammonia and methane Saturn • Saturn's rings are composed with ice. • Saturn’s temperature is -270 degrees Fahrenheit. • Saturn has the slowest orbit so Saturn was named after the god of time. Uranus • Uranus is the smallest of the gas giants • The center Uranus contains frozen mass of methane and ammonia which gives Uranus its blue-green color • Its axis is tipped so it orbits on its side. Neptune Neptune's temperature is -353 degrees Fahrenheit . The distance from the sun is 2.8 billion miles Neptune is named after the god of the sea Poseidon. Earths moon • 12 humans have walked the moon • The moon makes a complete orbit around earth in 27 earth days. • The first lunar probe attempt was on the 17th august in 1958.it was not successful it blew up after 77 seconds. Asteroids • There are 670,452 in the whole entire solar system. • There has been 11 missions about asteroids • Before pioneer 10, people thought nobody can survive the asteroid belt… till February 1973 Other moons 1. There are 178 known moons in our solar system. 2. Titian is the biggest of all 53 of Saturn's moons 3. Only Jupiter's moon Ganymede is larger than Titan Meteoroids • Meteoroids are also called shooting stars • 48.5 tons of meteoroid fall on earth every day. • Meteoroids were a comet but broke off. Comets • The first comet fly by was in sept 11th 1985 • The earliest record of seeing a comet was in 240 BCE • In 2014, the Rosetta was the first drone to land on a comet. Stars • Stars could be millions of millions of miles away and you could still see them. • Stars are not just two feet away they're thousands of miles away . • There is a star that is bigger than the sun and hotter Black holes • Nothing can escape a black hole not even light. • You cannot see a black hole. • Black holes are formed from dying stellar stars Pluto Pluto was a planet till 2008 Pluto has a mass of 1.305±0.007 x 1o²² kg Pluto is a dwarf planet cause he is much smaller Thank you for watching • All photos found from Shutterstock and nasa
