The Solar System By : Charizze and Halle

The Sun The sun is the star at the center of the Solar System and is by far the most important source of energy for life on earth The Suns distance from the earth is 149.6 million km away The radius is 659,700 km The surface temperature is 5,778 K The magnitude is -26.74

Mercury Mercury is the smallest planet in the solar system and the one closest to the sun with an orbital period of about 88 earth days , which is much faster than any other planet in the Solar System. The radius is 2,400km Distance from the sun 57.91million km The Mass is 3.285x 10^23 kg The length of day is 58d 15h 30m The gravity is 3.7 m The orbital period is 88 days

Venus Venus is the second planet from the Sun, orbiting it every 224.7 Earth days. It has the longest rotation period of any planet in the Solar System and rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets. It has no natural satellite. The radius is 6,052 km The distance from the Sun is 108.2 million km The mass is 4.867x 10^24 kg The length of day is 116d 18h 0m The surface area is 460.2 million km

Earth Earth is the third planet from the Sun, the densest planet in the Solar System, the largest of the Solar System’s four terrestial planets, and the only astronomical object known to harbor life. The radius is 6,371 km The distance from the Sun is 149.6 million km The area is 510.1 million km The mass 5.972x10^24 kg The age is 4.

Mars Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and the second-smallest planet in the Solar System, after Mercury. Radius: 3,390 km Length of day: 1d 0h 40m Mass: 6.39 × 10^23 kg (0.107 M⊕) Distance from Sun: 227.9 million km Gravity: 3.711 m/s² Moons: Phobos, Deimos

Jupiter Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest in the Solar System. It is a giant planet with a mass one-thousandth that of the Sun, but two and a half times that of all the other planets in the Solar System combined Radius: 69,911 km Distance from Sun: 778.5 million km Mass: 1.898 × 10^27 kg (317.8 M⊕)

Saturn Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun and the second-largest in the Solar System, after Jupiter. It is a gas giant with an average radius about nine times that of Earth. Radius: 58,232 km Distance from Sun: 1.433 billion km Mass: 5.683 × 10^26 kg (95.16 M⊕) Length of day: 0d 10h 42m Orbital period: 29 years

Uranus Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun. It has the third-largest planetary radius and fourth-largest planetary mass in the Solar System. Radius: 25,362 km Distance from Sun: 2.877 billion km Mass: 8.681 × 10^25 kg (14.54 M⊕) Length of day: 0d 17h 14m Discoverer: William Herschel Moons: Miranda, Titania, Umbriel, Oberon, Ariel, Puck, Cupid, Mab,

Neptune Neptune is the eighth and farthest known planet from the Sun in the Solar System. It is the fourth-largest planet by diameter and the third-largest by mass. Among the giant planets in the Solar System, Neptune is the most dense.
