Our Solar System is in fact one of 500 Solar Systems in the Milky Way Galaxy. But our Solar System is very special because it contains eight planets and five known dwarf planets. The eight planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune (These are all in order). Mercury is the closest planet to the sun it also has an orbit of about 3 Earth months, Venus the hottest planet is the 2nd planet from the sun, Venus’s temperature can go up to 867 F. Next is Earth the planet of life is covered in H20 and green greasy land. What's interesting is Earth's neighbour Venus is the hottest planet while Earth is that hot at all! Now comes Mars the red planet this is the planet made of iron and carbon with very little oxygen which would leave humans dead within 2 minutes. Now where at the end of the terrestrial planets. Between Mars and Jupiter there is a line of asteroids called the asteroid belt which parts the Terrestrial planets and the Jovian planets. Jupiter, the first Jovian planet and also the largest in our solar system is a gas giant along with Saturn. Saturn gas giant Jupiter has the most rings in the entire solar system in fact Saturn’s rings could fit between Earth and Earth's Moon. Uranus the first and largest icy planet is legend to rain diamonds and be covered from head to toe in ice and water. Finally Neptune the farthest from the sun contains very faint rings and it has 14 known moons. And some people might think Neptune has a super power because Neptune has supersonic winds! Beyond Neptune there is something at the edge of the solar system is the Kuiper belt which is the home to hundreds of meteoroids and most of the dwarf planets as well.
Recently we have been learning about space and our solar system today our reliever has said for us to make a detailed document about our solar system that refers to a video we watched at the beginning in the day. I didn't find this very difficult but at the same time it wasn't easy. If you were given this task how hard do you think it would before you? And how do you think i could have made mine better?
