 Mercury name is from the roman God of trade, merchants and
travelers later equated with the Greek God Hermes. Mercury
color is grey, it has no atmosphere. Mercury is the smallest
planet in both mass and diameter. It diameter is of about 4,879
km. Mercury orbit is 27,910,000 km from sun. Mercury is a
planet of extreme temperature variations. The temperature on
the planet may reach 450 degrees C during the day. But at nigh,
the temperature may drop as low as -170 degrees C. the
distance from the sun to Mercury is 58 million km.
Venus
 Venus was the Roman Goddess of love and beauty.
In Greek, her name was Aphrodite. The diameter of
Venus is 12,100 km. Venus is the second closest
planet from the sun. The color of Venus is like
caramel brown. Temperature in venus is hot, the
temperature in the surface is about 460 degrees
Celsius. Venus has no moon.
Earth
Earth's Greek name was Gaea. Earth was the mother of the
mountains, valleys, streams and all other land formations.
She was married to Uranus, and had a baby name Saturn.
The diameter of Earth is 7,926 miles. Earth have 1 moon, it
is called “Luna”. Earth rotates about its own axis 366.26
times. The Earth's axis rotation is tilted 23.4 degrees. The
properties of earth is rocks and soil, fossil, animals, living
things and wood. The temperature of the earth is highest
56.7c and lowest is -86c. Except for extreme location.
Earth shapes is an approximate. The distance from the
sun s 870.7 km. Earth's distance from the closest planet is
Mars and Venus.
Mars
Mars name is after the Greek God of war Martius and
Martialis. Mars is 228.000.000km away from the sun.
the diameter in mars is 6.780 km. The closest planet
with Mars is Earth. The properties in Mars are all
rocks. The color of the rocks are red. The
temperature is -55C to -133C. But when it is summer
the temperature went up to 27C. Mars spin it axis
very 24.63 hours. Mars orbit sun In 687 Earth day.
Mars moon is called Deimos and Phobos moon.
Jupiter
 Jupiter is the fifth planet from the sun, it is the largest planet
within the Solar system. The condition of Jupiter have a rough
condition, the temperatures can reach -145 degrees C. the
temperature could reach 9,726 degrees Celsius. The winds are
able to reach 300 mph and above. Jupiter is mostly made of gas
such as helium, hydrogen and methane. The gasses is what
cause the color of Jupiter cloud of gas. The gravity in Jupiter is
2.5 times what is here on Earth. The name of Jupiter was
named after the Roman God Jupiter which means the Kings of
God in Roman and was named of Jupiter because of its size
that is gigantic. The mass of Jupiter is 318 times the size of
Earth and a half of all planet in the Solar system combined.
Jupiter take 10 hours to complete one rotation. The distance
from the sun is 778 million km. Jupiter has 63-67 moons. The
closest planet to Jupiter is Mars.
Saturn
 Saturn name is from the Roman God of agriculture.
Saturn have 54-60 moons. Saturn mass is 95 times more
than Earth. The distance from the sun is 1.429.000.000
km. The distance from the closest planet is Jupiter its
about 690 million miles. The wide of Saturn is 7330 km.
Saturn's moon was 53 or 60 moons, Saturn had many
types of moon. The gravity In Saturn was less than it is on
Earth. Saturn are surrounded by ice clouds when the ice
clouds melt it makes a liquid water. That's why in Saturn
is so cold. The temperature in this planet is -250 degrees.
The color of this planet is mostly light browns because of
the old rocks and the dusty area. Saturn revolving the sun
for 10,759 Earth days.
Uranus
 The name of Uranus, was also the name of the Lord
of the skies and also called Earth Husband. Uranus
have 22 moons. Uranus weight is 868.124 kg. The
gravity in Uranus is 8.69 m/s2. The color of Uranus is
blue and green it is cause by the methane gas
around it self. The distance of Uranus and the sun
are 1,9 billion miles. The distance of Neptune to
Uranus is 911,453,788 miles. And Uranus and Saturn
is 1.45 million km. That rotation impact each day in
Uranus to be 17.9 hours and each year is 84.07 years
to earth, because of its long orbit path. Uranus
rotate in a clock wise way.
Neptune
 Neptune is the eighth planet in the solar system. Neptune
has moons, Neptune have 13 moons, one of the moon is
called Triton which is the largest of them all. The color of
Neptune is blue its is because they are full of methane
gas. Neptune tilted around 28.3 degrees and is tilting
from right to left. The name of Neptune is from the god
of the sea in the Roman Mythology, and their moons are
called after Minor God of Sea from the Greek and Roman
Mythology. This planet has The Great Dark Spot which is a
storm, the diameter of Neptune is 49,500 km. The
distance from the sun is 4,500 million km. The properties
of Neptune is gas and ice. The gravity is 10.71m/sec2.
Earth’s moon
 The diameter of earth is 3,476 km. The mass is 7,349
x 1022 kg. The color is grey to white. The distance
from earth takes 384,400 km. Earth moon orbit take
27 days to go all the way around the earth. The
temperature during night is 387 Fahrenheit, while
during the day its 253 Fahrenheit.
Moon
 The Moon is the only natural satellite of the Earth
and the fifth largest satellite in the Solar System. It is
the largest natural satellite of a planet in the Solar
System relative to the size of its primary. The mass
of moon is 73.490 million kg. The shape was like an
egg. The distance from earth is for 384.467 km. The
diameter is 3476 km. Moon revolution takes 27.3217
days. The moon orbital velocity takes 1.023 km/sec.
Its called Selene and Artemis by the Greeks.
Galaxies
 Galaxy is the result of more than billions of star combining
themselves into shapes that is now known as galaxy. It is a
collection of stars, gas, and dust combine together because
of gravity. One of the galaxies is The name Milky Way
galaxy came from the name milky, which means the
glowing band in the night sky. Milky way galaxy is he galaxy
that belongs to our solar system. It is a barred spiral
galaxy, 100,000 – 120,000 light years in the diameter(1
light years is about 9.5x1015 meters) and it consist of 200 –
400 billions of stars. The other was also Andromeda is the
largest galaxy. It contains about 30 smaller galaxies.
Although it is the largest galaxy, it many not be the
heaviest and darkest of all galaxy in the galaxy
neighborhood. it many not be the most massive one. It is
also the nearest galaxy to our galaxy, but overall it is not
the nearest. It is a spiral galaxy.
Meteoroids
 The size of meteoroids is almost the same as an very
giant rock but some is as small as a normal rock. The
mass of meteoroids are also around 30 to 100 kg.
The color of meteoroids is usually black, grey, brown
or even dark red. The temperature when meteoroids
are approaching earth are 20 to 50 degrees. But if its
out of the atmosphere it can be as cold as 0-20
degrees. The condition is its oval, and circle and also
sometimes unreadable. The name of meteoroids are
because when its approaching earth it look like
falling stars.
Asteroids
 Asteroids are small, airless rocky, dry and dusty
worlds revolving around the sun that are too small
to be called planets. Most asteroids are quite small,
under 1 km in size. The ass of all asteroids added
together would be less than the mass of the moon.
The closest planet is Jupiter and Mars. The
temperature can range from something on the
order of -73 degrees C near the inner edge down to 108 degrees C. asteroids take 2 to 18 hours to fully
form from the same dust and gas that the sun and
other planets are formed by.
Comets
A comet is an icy small Solar System body (SSSB) that, when close enough to
the Sun, displays a visible coma (a thin, fuzzy, temporary atmosphere) and
sometimes also a tail . As a comet gets closer to the sun, the ice on the
surface of the nucleus begins turning into gas, forming a cloud known as
the coma. Asteroids classify comets based on the durations of their
orbits around the sun. Short-period comets need roughly 200 years or less
to complete one orbit, long-period comets take more than 200 years, and
single-apparition comets are not bound to the sun, on orbits that take
them out of the solar system. Normally, in the outer parts of our Solar
System comet temperatures range between -200 C to -250 C. The color of
comets is Blue, white, red, purple and green.
Stars
 A star is a sphere that is held together by the force
of gravity. Sun are also parts of sun, the diameter is
1,390,000, the mass of sun is 1,989 e 30 kg. The
oldest star discovered is HE 1523-0901, which is
estimated 13.2 billion years old. Some stars are
600,000 times brighter than our sun. 65% of all stars
are actually doubled stars. The closest star to earth is
Proxma Centauri (except sun), is located 4.2 light
years away. The second closest star to Earth is
Barnard star that is 6 light years away. There are 250
billion stars in the milky way galaxy.
Sun
 The Sun was named sol after the ancient roman name.
At the white spots on the Sun is the most hot part. The
red part are not as hot as the white parts. The history
of the Sun is that it has been changing colors and
sometimes it get’s hotter and hotter because the
seasons and the hotness in the earth is hotter so the
sun is getting hotter and hotter .
