  1. The Solar System • Demonstrate the relative size and order from the sun of the Planets in the Solar system

  2. MercuryThe first and closest planet from the Sun36 million miles (57.9 million km) from the Sun87.96 Earth days to Revolve around the Sun58.7 Earth days to Rotate on its Axis3,031 miles (4,878 km) in Diameter3.3x10 to the 23rd power in Mass (kg)100-700 K (K Range or Average) Temperature-280 to 800 degrees Fahrenheit0 moonsOn Mercury, the sky is black- you can’t see the stars even in the daytime

  3. VenusThe second planet from the Sun67.2 million miles (108.2 million km) from the Sun224.68 Earth days to Revolve around the Sun243 Earth days to Rotate on its Axis4.87x 10 to the 24th power in Mass (kg)7,521 miles (12,104 km) in Diameter726 K (K Range or Average) Temperature860 degrees Fahrenheit0 MoonsVenus is the hottest planet in the solar system

  4. EarthThe third planet from the Sun93 million miles (149.6 million km) from the Sun365.4 days to Revolve around the Sun24 hours to Rotate on its Axis5.98x10 to the 24th power in Mass (kg)7,926 miles (12,756 km) in Diameter260-310 K (K range or Average) Temperature-128 to 136 degrees Fahrenheit1 moonThe only planet that is known to have life forms upon it.

  5. MarsThe fourth planet from the Sun141.6 million miles (227.9 million km) from the Sun686.98 Earth days to Revolve around the Sun24.6 Earth hours to Rotate on its Axis6.42x10 to the 23rd power Mass (kg)4,222 miles (6,776 km) in Diameter150-310 K (K Range or Average) Temperature-220 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit2 MoonsKnown as the “Red Planet”Some scientists believe that life may have existed on Mars billions of year sago

  6. JupiterThe fifth planet from the Sun483.6 million miles (778.3 million km) from the Sun11.862 Earth days to Revolve around the Sun9.84 Earth hours to Rotate on its Axis1.90x10 to the 27th in Mass (kg)88.729 miles (142,796 km) in Diameter120 K (K Range or Average) TemperatureAbout – 220 degrees Fahrenheit18 Named Moons (plus many smaller ones)has a Giant Red SpotIt is the largest planet in our solar systemIs a giant ball of gas

  7. SaturnThe sixth planet from the Sun886.7 million miles (1,427.0 million km) from the Sun29.456 Earth years to Revolve around the Sun10.2 Earth hours to Rotate on its Axis5.69 x 10 to the 26th power in Mass (kg)74,600 miles (120,660 km) in Diameter88K (K Range or Average) Temperatureabout -290 degrees Fahrenheit18+ Moonshas 7 thin, flat rings around itMade up of billions of pieces of dust and ice

  8. UranusThe seventh planet from the Sun1,784.0 million miles(2,871.0 million km) from the Sun84.07 Earth years to Revolve around the Sun17.9 Earth hours to Rotate on its Axis8.68 x 10 to the 25th power in Mass (kg)32,600 Miles (51,118 km) in Diameter59 K (K Range or Average) TemperatureAbout -360 degrees Fahrenheit15 MoonsIs the farthest planet that can be seen without a telescope

  9. NeptuneThe eighth planet from the Sun2,794.4 million miles (4,497.1 million km) from the Sun164.81 Earth years to Revolve around the Sun19.1 Earth Hours to Rotate on its Axis1.02 x 10 to the 26th Mass (kg)30,200 miles (48,600 km) in Diameter48 K (K Range 0r Average) TemperatureAbout -350 degrees Fahrenheit2 MoonsIs covered by thick layers of clouds that are blown by winds of up to 700 miles per hour

  10. PlutoThe ninth planet from the Sun3,674.5 million miles (5,913 million km) from the Sun247. 7 Years to Revolve around the Sun6.39 Earth Days to Rotate on its Axis1.29 x 10 to the 22nd power in Mass (kg)1,413 miles (2,274 km) in Diameter37 K (K Range or Average) TemperatureAbout -390 to -370 degrees Fahrenheit1 large (plus 2 tiny) MoonsEvery 248 year, Pluto comes closer to the sun than Neptune, and remains so for 20 years
