Outer space is where I Really like to go. Hurray! Holidays are here again. I ride inside a spaceship don’t you know. I like to travel through the stars wave to Jupiter and Mars. . Name:____________________________ Class: II / Sec _____ “Children spell love…T-I-M-E” Dr. Anthony P. Witham once said this and he was definitely onto something. Dear Parent Spending quality time with children is extremely important for their development and happiness. The time spent with them needn’t be too elaborate or long, but it must be “quality”. As we are starting with the summer vacations, let’s redefine our role as parents and guide our children in a multitude of ways. Just to help spend some more quality time with your children, we have planned some exciting activities which are planned on a common theme this time -“SOLAR SYSTEM”. Theme based concepts help children assimilate information on one topic through diverse ways. Spend quality time with your children and let them explore the new way of integrated learning. SOME USEFUL TIPS Take your child for a morning walk. This would give him/her an opportunity to not just enjoy the fresh breeze but also observe the things around. Encourage your child to read some moral based stories and help him/her to narrate the story to you in his/her own words. Play games with your child - both indoor and outdoor. You may also visit some new places. It would be an enjoyable experience and at the same time would help you in educating your child with the information related to that place Dear Dipsites Enjoy your holidays. Keep yourself busy and happy. Here are some points that you must remember during the vacations Take good care of your health by eating nutritious food and exercising regularly. Take enough rest to attain back energy and vitality. Drink lots of water and juices to tide over the scorching heat of the summer months. Spend quality time in reading good books, newspapers and magazines. Practice daily for a better handwriting. Do your worksheets neatly and keep them in a hand-made folder (made by you). Decorate the folder beautifully. Bring it to the school with your name and class mentioned on it. Try to converse in English with your parents in order to improve your fluency and confidence. Remember that Summer Vacation is the time to learn and enjoy. So, spend these holidays creating a nurturing and stimulating environment filled with fun, frolic and learning. WONDERFUL WAYS Hey kids !! Welcome to the world of planets. The solar system is made of the eight TO GET ALONG THE WORLD!! planets that orbit our sun. It is also made of asteroids, moons, comets and lots, lots more. Lets take a deep plunge into the magical world of the Sun and its family. So, lets go........ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The Sun Size: The Sun is wider than 100 Earths. Temperature: ~27,000,000°F in the center, ~10,000°F at the surface. So, that’s REALLY hot anywhere on the Sun! The Sun is made up of gas. The Sun is a star at the center of our solar system. It gives us light and heat. The Sun is bigger than any of the planets. The Sun looks yellow from Earth. Never look directly at the Sun, because it will hurt your eyes! -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The Mercury Size: About 1/3 as wide as the Earth. Number of moons: 0 Temperature: –279°F to 800 °F. So REALLY cold or REALLY hot depending on if you’re in the shade or not! Mercury is a ball of rock. Mercury is the planet closest to the Sun. Its grey surface is covered with craters. It would not be very nice to live on Mercury, because it is either REALLY hot or REALLY cold. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Venus Size: Almost as big as the Earth. Number of moons: 0 Temperature: ~890°F. Venus is VERY hot! Venus is mainly made of rock. Venus is the second planet from the Sun. It has thick yellow clouds made of acid. The surface has lots of volcanoes, mountains, and big cracks on the surface. Earth Size: 7,926 miles Number of moons: 1 Temperature: –130°F to 136°F. This temperatures can make you feel cold or hot, but mainly the temperature is great for life here on Earth! The Earth is mainly made of rock. Earth is the third planet from the Sun. It has water on the surface and air we can breathe. From space, Earth looks like a blue ball with land that is brown and green and clouds that are white. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Mars Size: About half as big as Earth. Number of moons: 2 Temperature: –266°F to –62°F. So Mars is a pretty cold place! Mars is mainly made of rocks. Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun. Mars is covered with red rocks. There are huge volcanoes and lots of craters on the surface. So far, scientists haven’t found any life on Mars. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Asteroids Location: Most are in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Size: From about 1/2 mile to hundreds of miles across, asteroids are made of rock and metal. Asteroids are large rocks that orbit the Sun. The drawing On the side is of the asteroid Gaspra. Gaspra is brown and grey. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Jupiter Size: About 11 Earths across. Number of moons: 60 Temperature: –278°F. So Jupiter is REALLY cold! Jupiter is mainly made of liquid and gas, with a small rocky core. Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun. It is the biggest planet in the solar system. Jupiter is orange, red, yellow, brown, and white. Jupiter also has a Great Red Spot. You can draw the red spot on the picture. Saturn Size: Bigger than 9 Earths across. Number of moons: 31 Temperature: –292°F. So Saturn is REALLY cold! Saturn is mainly made of gas and liquid, with a small rocky core. Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun. It is a giant planet. Saturn has beautiful rings. Saturn is gold, brown, and white. Its rings are gold, brown, white, red, yellow, and green. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Uranus Size: Uranus is about 4 Earths across. Number of moons: 21 Temperature: –346°F. Uranus is SUPER cold! Uranus is a ball of gas with a rocky core. Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun. The clouds that circle the planet are greenish-blue. Uranus also has 11 thin rings (not shown here) that surround the planet. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Neptune Size: About 4 Earths across. Number of moons: 11 Temperature: –353°F. So Neptune is SUPER cold! Neptune is a ball of gas with a metal core. Neptune is usually the eighth planet from the Sun. For a few years Pluto was actually closer to the Sun than Neptune. The planet is surrounded by blue clouds and dark rings. ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Astronomers that believe the solar system is around 4.5 billion years old.

In space , there is no oxygen for astronauts and the temperature can vary from freezing cold to scorching hot. These space suits not only protect the astronauts from these adverse conditions but they also save them from the small bits of dust and rock which fly by at great speed. So, come lets explore the astronaut’s attire little more and answer the questions based on the information given in the picture belowFour lamps are attached to the top of the helmet. They help the astronaut see. This is tool carrier. All of the tools are attached to the suit so that they don’t float away. These tubes are filled with water. They keep the astronaut cool. A camera sends pictures back to the astronauts in the spacecraft. The helmet is made of clear, strong plastic. Oxygen flows inside of the helmet so that the astronaut can breathe. The backpack holds tanks filled with oxygen. The space suit has 13 layers of material 1. How many layers of material does the space suit have ? ___________________________________________________________ 2. How does an astronaut keep cool inside of his or her space suit? ___________________________________________________________ 3. There is no oxygen in space. How does an astronaut breathe? ___________________________________________________________ 4. How does an astronaut keep cool inside of his or her space suit? ___________________________________________________________ INFOZONE NASA- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is the agency of the United States Federal Government responsible for the civilian space program as well as aeronautics and aerospace research. Most US space exploration efforts have been led by NASA, including the Apollo moon-landing missions. INDIAN SATELLITES LAUNCHED India has launched 83 Indian satellites (as of 28 April 2016) of many types since its first in 1975. Aryabhata was India's first satellite, IRNSS-1D is the only satellite in the constellation slated to provide navigational services to the region. The Bhaskara-I and II were two satellites built by the Indian Space Research Organisation that formed India's first low orbit Earth Observation Satellite. It also carried TV and microwave cameras. INSAT, is a series of multipurpose geo-stationary satellites launched by ISRO to satisfy the telecommunications, broadcasting, meteorology, and search and rescue operations. Rohini is the name given to a series of satellites launched by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). First Animal to go in Space: Laika was a Soviet (name of the spacecraft) space dog who became one of the first animals in space, and the one of the first animals in space, and the first animal to orbit the Earth. Laika, a stray dog from the streets of Moscow, was selected to be the occupant of the Sovietspacecraft Sputnik 2 that was launched into outer space on November 3, 1957. First Indian to go in Space: Rakesh Sharma, AC, Hero of the Soviet Union, (born 13 January 1949) is a former Indian Air Force pilot who flew aboard Soyuz T-11, launched April 3, 1984, as part of the Inter-cosmos programme. Sharma was the first Indian to travel in space. However, after this India became the 14th nation to send a man to outer space. Means to reach the Space We need a space shuttle to go into the space. A space shuttle carries people and cargo into space. Space shuttles can also carry various types of equipments, spacecraft, etc. The first space shuttle flight was held in 1981. Space shuttles have taken astronauts into space, launched satellites, completed scientific experiments, fixed other spacecraft, Many people mistakenly think that there is no gravity in space. Infact, space has extremely low gravity, i.e about 0.000001 per cent of the Earth’s gravity. Therefore, it is said that space has Zero Gravity or more accurately micro-gravity. Due to microgravity, objects are in a state of free-fall and are said to e ‘weightless’. Any time an astronaut gets out of a vehicle while in space, it is called a spacewalk. A spacewalk is also called an EVA. EVA stands for extravehicular activity. The first person to go on a spacewalk was Alexei Leonov. He was from Russia. The first spacewalk was on March 18, 1965. It was 10 minutes long. FACTS ABOUT GRAVITY Did you know that Gravity/ Gravitation is one of the fundamental forces of the universe. In everyday use, it describes the forces which cause objects to fall on the ground. “Gravity” keeps Earth and other planets in our solar system in orbit around the sun. It also keeps the moon in orbit around the Earth. Gravity guides the growth of plants and vegetables. AMAZING FACTS ABOUT SPACE In space the skin on your feet peels off!! On planet Venus a day is longer than a year. One million Earths can fit inside the Sun. You become taller in space. You can cry in space but your tears don’t fall. Footprints and tyre tracks left behind by astronauts on the moon will stay there forever as there is no wind to blow them away. The only planet that rotates on its side like a barrel is Uranus. The only planet that spins backwards relative to the others is Venus. Because of lower gravity, a person who weighs 200 pounds on earth would only weigh 76 pounds on the surface of Mars. FAMOUS ASTRONAUTS Yuri A. Gagarin was the Neil A. Armstrong was the first human to go to first person to set foot on space on April 12, 1961 the Moon on July 20, 1969. Kalpana Chawla was Indian- Sunita Williams holds the born and the second person records for female space of Indian origin to fly to travellers-longest space space in 1998. flight (195 days), number of space walks (tour) and total Let’s explore more together with referring time spent on space walks. to these books and visiting the links on youtube (29 hours 17 minutes) about space.
