But is now considered the largest member of a distinct population known as the Kuiper belt.

The Scientific name is Sol. If hollow, one million Earth’s could fit inside. It acts as a giant magnet. The Sun’s surface is 6,000 degrees celcius, but it’s atmosphere is millions of degrees. The Sun

It takes 87,969 days for Mercury to orbit the Sun one time. It has no moons. There is almost no air on Mercury. Mercury is so hot that you could burn to death during the day, but spins so slowly you could freeze to death at night. Mercury

It takes 224,701 days to orbit the Sun. You would way 63 pounds here if you weighed 70 pounds on Earth. It is 67 million miles away from the Sun. Venus has no moons. Venus

It takes days orbit the Sun. We are 93 million miles away from the Sun. It contains the only human life we know of. Earth has just the perfect combination of weather, temperature, and atmosphere to keep us alive. Earth

It takes days to orbit the Sun. Mars is 142 million miles away from the sun. Weighing 70 pounds on Earth, you would weigh 27 on mars. Mars has two moons, Deimos and Phobos. Mars

It takes Jupiter days to complete one orbit around the Sun. You would weight 125 pounds on Jupiter if you weighed 70 pounds on Earth. Jupiter has 63 moons It only takes 10 hours to go from night to day here. Jupiter

It takes 30,684 days for Uranus to orbit the Sun. It is 1,784 millions miles away from the Sun. It is the only planet that spins on it’s side. You would weigh 82 pounds here, if you weighed 70 pounds on Earth. It has 27 moons. Uranus

It takes 60,190 days to orbit the Sun. It was discovered in It has 6 rings that surround it. Since Neptune is too far away, scientist know of 13 moons for sure, but there could be many more to be discovered. It is 2,794 million miles away from the Sun. Neptune

It takes 10,759.2 days to orbit the Sun. Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system. Its diameter is 88,846 miles. It would take more than 1,000 Earths to fill up the volume of the giant planet. Saturn has 34 moons. It is 888 millions away from the sun. Saturn
