1 Sun Moon and Earth By: Sterling Weadock

2 Moon The Moon is 3,475 km The Moon has 1/6 of the gravity we have on Earth The Moon has no atmosphere

3 Earth The Earth is 12,720 km Earth’s gravity is six times stronger than the moon’s gravity Earth has an atmosphere. Earth’s atmosphere is divided into five sections

4 The Sun weighs 1,392 million km The Sun is a big ball of hot gases. Most of the gas is hydrogen (70%)and helium (28%) There is no gravity on the Sun The surface of the cooler spots on the sun is 5,000 c (10,000 f.)The avrage temperature at the center of the sun is 15,000,000 c (27,000,000 f)! That’s hot

5 Landforms The Moon has different Landforms like Dome, Maria, and Craters The Earth has Moutains, Plateaus, Valleys, Deserts, Dunes, Islands, Plains, Rivers, Oceans, and Glaciers The Sun has solar winds, solar flares, and sun spots. Solar winds cause the arora lights, solar flares are storms on the sun, and sun spots are cooler spots on the sun

6 Weathering and Erosion The Moon doesn’t have an atmosphere so there is no weathering or erosion Earth has an atmosphere so weathering and erosion can happen. The rocks can be broken down by rain and dirt and sand can be caried around by the wind Weathering and erosion doesn’t exsist on the sun. It’s too hot!

7 Rotation It takes 27.5 days(about a month)for the Moon to rotate on it’s axis. In four weeks, the moon goes through phases called the Moon Phases The length of a day on Earth is 24 hours. The Earth orbits around the Sun. It takes 365 days to make a full rotation.(one year) It takes one month for the Sun to rotate on it’s axis. The Sun doesn’t orbit around ANY planets

8 Water There is no water on the Moon. Though there is some frozen water in ice form on both poles on the Moon About 71% of Earth’s surface is covered with water, and the oceans hold about 96.5% of all Earth’s water Again, the Sun is too hot

9 Time It takes the Moon around 29 Days to revolve, or orbit around the Earth The Earth revolves around the Sun. The Sun doesn’t orbit the Earth or Moon

10 Fun Facts The Seasons are caused by the Earth’s tilt The Sun keeps Earth from getting too hot or too cold. We are the perfect distance The High and Low tides are caused by the Moon’s gravitational pull Say if you were 84 pounds, on the moon, you would be 13.9 pounds

11 The End Thanks for Watching
