9. Neptune
8th and farthest planet from the sun
The atmosphere is mostly hydrogen and helium
Has 8 known moons

10. Moon
Bigger than Pluto
Only object in the Solar System visited by
humans.
A lunar month is 29.35 days,
1 new moon to the next.
The moon’s gravitational pull
on Earth is the main cause of
the ocean’s tide.
11. Sun
Located 93,000,000 miles from Earth
Closest star to Earth
At least 4.5 billion years old
Has a surface temperature of 10,000 degrees and
a center temperature of 27,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
12. Asteroids
The Asteroid Belt is the space between Mars and Jupiter
It contains irregularly shaped chunks of debris called
asteroids
Asteroids made of rock and metal. Mostly nickel and iron
13. Our Solar System
The Solar System is the sun together with the eight planets
and all other celestial bodies that orbit the sun.
Everything in the Solar System orbits or revolves around the Sun in a
counter-clockwise direction.
The Solar System is estimated to have formed between 4.53 and 4.58 billion
years ago.
The Sun contains around 98% of all the material in the Solar System
