introduction • Do you know what lies in space? • How many moons we have? • What are the inner planets? • What are the outer planets? • What are comets, and meteoroids? • And lots more!! • all this will be answered!!!!!!!!!.
What do the astronomers use to see space • Astronomers use lot’s of tools to look in space to study it. What do you think they are? • 1. the tool is called a optical telescope. A optical telescope is telescope that collects light waves, to make things that are very far away appear very close. • 2. the tool is a radio telescope. A radio telescope is a telescope that collets radio waves, scientist use a computer for the optical telescope to learn things about the objects in space. • 3. the tool is a space probe. A space probe is a space craft sent into space to explore things, these things collect things from space like rocks, plus they sent information back to home.
What is our solar system • The solar system is as simple as this, it is the sun and everything that circles it. • Orbiting and rotating is very important in the solar system. Orbit: to circle something. Rotate: to spin like a washing machine. It takes earth 24 hours to rotate once, and 365 (one year) days to orbit • Gravity is the force that pulls us down
The moon • The moon is earths partner in space. • Phases: phases are the moons shapes. • Crescent moon: when the moon looks like an eyelash it is called a crescent moon. • Full moon: when the moon is a complete circle it is called a full moon.
mercury • Mercury is the closest planet to the sun. it is the smallest of the inner planet’s, not the entire solar system. • Mercury’s atmosphere is very thin. • During the day mercury is so hot, at night it is cold.
Venus • The second planet from the sun is Venus. Venus is earth’s closest neighbor and about the same size. • Venus has yellow-white clouds of acid, this keeps Venus even hotter then mercury
earth • The third planet from the sun. it is the only planet that has life.
mars • The next planet beyond earth is mars. Mars is the last inner planet. Mars’s has lot’s of landform’s. • Mar’s has two moons’ while the rest of the inner planets have 1
Jupiter • Jupiter is the first outer planet. • Jupiter is the largest planet in the entire solar system, more then a thousand earths can fit in there. • Jupiter has 16 moons
Saturn • Saturn is almost as big as Jupiter. • It has large beautiful rings. • It has 18 moons
Uranus • Uranus looks blue green acids. • It has 15 moons
Neptune • Neptune is blue, has rings, and has 8 moons
Pluto • Pluto is the last outer planet. • It is a dwarf planet. • It is the coldest planet ever, because it is very far away from the sun.
Comets, asteroids, meteoroids • Comets are icy objects that orbit the sun in long paths shaped like ovals. • Asteroids are huge pieces of rock or metal that orbit the sun • Meteoroids are broken pieces of asteroids or comets
