high.

Did you know Mars has less gravity
than Earth? A 60 pound third

Mars because it is too cold for
liquid.

Neptune by: Taylor
http://www.solarviews.com/eng/nept
une.htm
People didn’t know how the Earth
orbited the Sun. They thought
the Sun orbited the Earth. But
it really was the other way
around.
Neptune is more than two billion
miles from the Earth. It has a
Great Dark Spot similar to
Jupiter’s Red Spot.
Not all astronomers use
telescopes. Some use
mathematics. The eighth
planet (Neptune) would have
been found in 1845 if there
were better telescopes
available then.
The planet was named Neptune
for the god of the sea.
Saturn By Zechariah
•
Saturn is the second biggest
planet in the solar system.

Saturn By Sophia
• Saturn’s rotation period is 10
hours and 40 minutes! It’s
revolution period is 29 years and
six months to go around the sun.
It has 18 moons! Wow! It is the
second biggest planet. Its
atmosphere is made of hydrogen
and helium gases. Saturn has
thousands of rings. Saturn’s
moons are made of rock and ice.
It’s average distance from the sun
is 888 million miles away. That’s
1,429 million kilometers! Saturn is
bigger than earth so if you weigh
70 pounds on earth, you would
weigh 82 pounds on Saturn! It’s
rings are 169,800 miles wide. But
less thick than a football field.

The Red Planet By Christian
Did you now that no one could learn
about Mars without a telescope?
If you were nine on earth you
would be less than five years old
on Mars. Mars’ ice caps melt a bit
in the summer. Mars also has a
sixteen mile tall volcano called
Olympus Mons.
