THE SOLAR SYSTEM
BY: Nadia Majestic
SUN
THE SUN ACOUNTS FOR 99.86
PERCENT OF MASS IN THE
SOLAR SYSTEM.
The sun is that big bright
ball in the sky it give
warmth and brightness.
MERCURY
Mercury is the closes planet to the
sun. Also the smallest planet of all
eight. For every 2 orbits of the sun,
witch takes around 88 Earth days
Mercury completes 3 rotations of its
axis. Thanks and lets go to the next
slide.
VENUS
Venus is the second planet from the
sun. orbiting it every 224.7 Earth
days. It has the longest rotation
period of any planet in the solar
system. Also usually rotates in the
opposite direction of some planets.
It has no natural satellite. Also on
Venus it snows metal and rains
sulpheric acid cool right.
EARTH
Earth are home planet is the only
planet that can support life. Earth is
also the only planet that can produce
plants and food. Earth is mostly
water. This amazing planet is not the
last one there much more to see.
MARS
Mars is the fourth planet from the
sun. Named after roman god of war.
Its often described as the red planet.
Mars is a terrestrial planet. With a
thin atmosphere composed primarily
of carbon dioxide.
JUPITER
Jupiter is the 5 th planet from the sun.
Also the biggest planet in the solar
system. It is a big planet with a mass
1,000 that of the sun, but two and a
half times of all the other planets in
the solar system combined.
SATURN
Saturn is the sixth planet from the
sun and second largest in the solar
system after Jupiter. It is a gas giant
with an average radius about nine
times that on Earth. Saturn is the lest
dense planet in the solar system. Also
the first astronomers thought its
rings were moons. Did you know
Saturn has only been visited 4 times
be space craft. Saturn is a fun planet
an also has 62 moons.
URANUS
Uranus is the seventh planet from
the sun. It has the third largest
planetary radius. Also the fourth
largest planetary mass in the solar
system. Uranus is not visible to the
naked eye but you can see it through
a telescope. Uranus is tipped over on
its side with an axial tilt of 98
degrees. Its also the first planet
discovered by a telescope.
NEPTUNE
Neptune is the eighth planet from
the sun, and the farthest known
planet from the sun in the solar
system. It is the fourth largest planet
by diameter and third largest in mass.
Among the giant planets in the solar
system. Neptune is the most dense.
ASTEROID BELT
The asteroid belt is made up of more
than 90,000 rocky remains from the
formation of the solar system. The
Asteroid belt resides within a region
of space between the orbits of Mars
and Jupiter.
SOLAR SYSTEM FACTS
Our solar system also includes
gaseous clouds, dust, comets, and
more than 170 moons. Cool well did
you know are solar system is about
five billion years old.
CONSTELLATIONS
A simple definition of a constellation
is a group of stars which form a
pattern in the night sky. There are 88
official constellations. Some
constellations are only visible in the
northern hemisphere, while others
are only visible in the southern
hemisphere.
BLACK HOLE
Black holes are among the strangest
things in the universe. Black Holes
have gravity that is so strong that
nothing can escape it-not even light.
Also there's different kinds of black
Holes like the stellar massive Black
Holes and the super massive Black
Holes. The stellar massive Black
Hole is created when massive stars
explode, leaving behind a Black Hole.
DWARF PLANETS
There are five discovered Dwarf
Planets there is Ceres, Pluto,
Haumea, Makemake, Eris. Ceres is
red, Pluto is blue, Makemake is also
blue, Haumea is gray, ERIS is green.
MILKY WAY
The Milky Way galaxy is a very
interesting place. Not only does it
measure 100,000 -120,00 light years
in diameter, it is home to planet
Earth, the birth place of humanity.
Our Solar System resides roughly
27,000 light years away from the
Galactic center, on the inner edge of
one of the spiral-shaped
concentrations of gas and dust
particles called the Orion arm.
THE RED GIANTS
Red Giants are stars that have
exhausted the supply of hydrogen in
there cores. Red Giants are big red
stars that may hold the suns future
they are cool and interesting to learn
about. Red Giant star is a dying star
in the last stage oh evolution. In only
a few billion years are own sun will
become a Red Giant!!!
EARTH VS SUN
Earth will not survive in 7 billion
years when the Sun becomes a Red
Giant because when it becomes a
giant star it may become so large that
it will engulf Earth, in which case
the planet will be destroyed. Even if
this doesn’t happen, the sun will
expand so far out that the
temperatures on Earth will be so
high that all the oceans will
evaporate away, and there will be no
water left on Earth so therefor no
life that depends on water will
survive. But you don’t have to worry
about that till 7 billion years are over.
THE MOON
The moon comes out at night but
sometimes during the day the moon
has five phases. The moon is Earths
only natural satellite. It is one of the
largest natural satellites in the Solar
System, and among planetary
satellites, the largest relative to the
size of its planet it orbits.
EXTRATERRESTRIAL BEINGS
Lets start with NASA. Three days in
the Apollo 11 mission, the crew
reported a strange flying object not
far from there location. They
assumed it was a piece of detached
SIV-B rocket. That is until the
received a word that it was over
6,000 miles away.
