1. The Solar System
By: Hannah

2. The Sun is our star without it we wouldn’t be living right now.
We cant go on or near the sun its too hot, even if we could go on the sun it would be impossible to move because of all the gravity. The sun has 99.86% mass in the Solar System.

3. Mercury
Every Seven years Mercury can be seen from earth (the next time this will happen is May ).Mercury is named after Roman god messenger. A year on Mercury is 88 days and a Mercury day is 176 Earth days. Mercury has no moons or rings because it has not a lot of atmosphere

4. Venus
Venus is named after roman goddess love and beauty. Venus is sometimes called Earths sister planet because there mass and size is so similar. Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system with a temperature of 462 Celsius or 863 Fahrenheit.

5. Earth
Earth was formed about 4.54 billion years ago and so far is the only planet to have life on it. A year on earth lasts a little over 365 days it is actually ¼ of a day over 365 days this is why we have a leap year.

6. Mars
Mars is named after the Roman God of war. Mars has the largest dust storms in the solar system. It takes Mars 687 Earth days to orbit the sun with its radius of 227,840,000 km.

7. Jupiter
Jupiter is named after the Roman king of the Gods. It would take 11 earths lined up next to each other to get from one side of Jupiter to the other, it would also take 317 earths to equal Jupiter's mass. Jupiter's red spot is a gigantic storm that has been there for over 300 years! If Jupiter had 80 times more massive Jupiter would have been a star instead of a planet

8. Saturn
In Roman mythology Saturn was the father of Jupiter, this relationship makes sense because Jupiter and Saturn are similar in many ways. Saturn is nicknamed the ringed planet because of its beautiful rings which are mostly made from chunks of ice. Saturn is also known as a gas giant but scientists believe it has a solid rocky core.

9. Uranus
It takes Uranus 84 earth days to orbit the sun. Uranus is sometimes referred to the ice giant because its helium and hydrogen on its upper layer. Uranus winds can reach up to 900 km per hour this is about 560 miles per hour.

10. Neptune
It takes Neptune 165 earth days to orbit the sun. Neptune is the Roman god of the sea, in Greek its name is Poseidon. The largest Neptune moon is Triton, Triton was discovered just 17 days after Neptune itself was discovered which was September 23, 1846.

11. The Solar System
The solar system is made up of the sun, eight planets, seven dwarf planets, 146 moons, millions of comets, asteroids, ice, and space rocks.

12. the Milky Way
The milky way began forming around 12 Billion years ago. The milky way was created by a merging of smaller galaxy's through time. The Milky way is made up of at least 100 billion stars, dust and gas. It takes the milky way 200 million years to rotate and it takes light 100,000 years to cross the milky way

13. Our moon
Scientists believe the moon was created 4 ½ billion years ago, the moon was created when a large object hit the earth and blasted out rocks they eventually melted together and became the moon.

14. stars
There are about 400 billion stars in the galaxy. Stars are made of dust clouds all around space. Stars actually don’t twinkle they are actually blinking. The north star isn't one star its several stars orbiting each other.

15. If a black hole entered the solar system
Well first a black hole is formed after a stars death and nothing can escape it.If a Black hole entered we wouldn’t be able to see the black hole but we would get to see our planets being ripped apart if the planet was in its path, when the black hole gets closer to earth volcanos and earthquakes would be huge. long story short we would all die
