Worlds beyond the Earth
By Molly Knight-Smith
Mercury
•
Mercury is the planet
closest to the sun. It is
heavily cratered from
the amount of asteroid
crashes on its rocky
surface. Along with
Venus ,Earth and Mars it
is classed as a terrestrial
planet (a rocky mass).
Venus
Venus is the second
planet from the sun.
It is a rocky mass
surrounded by gas
clouds. If any thing
was to hit Venus the
air pressure would
instantly crush the
object .
Earth
Earth is the third
planet from the
sun and probably
the only one in the
Milky Way with
diverse life on it. It
has water and land
on it ,the perfect
conditions for life
forms.
Mars
Mars is the fourth
Planet from the
sun. It is the planet
which is most likely
to have microorganisms living on
it. Unlike the other
planets apart from
Earth, Mars
possibly has water
present, under the
surface.
Jupiter
Jupiter is the 5th planet
from the Sun. Along
with Saturn, Uranus and
Neptune, Jupiter is
classed as a gas giant.
With a mass 318 times
that of Earth Jupiter is
the largest planet in the
solar system.
Saturn
Saturn is the sixth
Planet from the sun.
It is a ball of ice ,rock
and gas. Saturn is very
famous for its rings.
These rings are made
of ice and dust.
Uranus
Uranus is the seventh
Planet from the sun. It
is extremely cold and
icy. It is the third
biggest planet in the
solar system even
though it is relatively
small compared to
the giants ,Jupiter
and Saturn.
Neptune
Neptune is the 8th and
last planet from the sun.
Neptune has taken this
title from Pluto which is
now classed as a dwarf
planet .Neptune is very
icy and cold , even
more-so than Uranus.
Hear is how to remember the order of
the planets
