¡TOUR OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM!
to the Solar Sytem, but I am
talking about the Milky Way.
Can you guess why? Yes,
you are right ! Just like we,
the people have a address space-art.co.uk
to live in, so does the Solar
Sytem. The Solar System is
in the Milky Way. Meaning, that the Solar System is
located to where you are going now, the Solar
System. This is a brochure for helping your trip be
wonderful and marvelous ! This brochure tells yu
about what you could see in the Solar System. There
is so many types of things in the Solar System, that

that is in the Solar System. Please keep on reading to
find what you think is interesting, and is the most best
place to visit this time. Have FUN !
PS: Just for you to know, there is a candy called Milky
Way, but the Solar System is not located in the candy universetoday.com
at all. This Solar System is the on in space...
Come visit to our Solar System, where
ALL the planets are living !!!!

3. Solar System The Sun
The Solar System is where you will now be exploring. So you will You know all those light that we can see in the blue sky, (which
need to learn alot about it. Right Aliens ? Yes so here it is: if we look in is not safe for our eyes) is the brightening star: the
Sun. The Sun was borned about 5 billion years ago! Once there
was a big cloud of gas continuously spinning and spinning
around. As it was spinning, it became into a nice round sphere.
By time, it became smaller and smaller. While it was getting
smaller, it became HOTTER!!! That is how a new star, the Sun
was born. The Sun is about 1,384,000 kilometers from its sides,
meaning diameter. The scientists have newly discovered that the
temperature of it is 27,000,000 ˚F. But interestingly the bottom is
colder - 10,000˚F. And one thing is nice, that the Sun is mostly
made of hydrogen, and helium.

Solar System is where all the weird and amazing things are
happening. For example: The Sun is brightening right now, I
guarantee you. Our Solar System is located in the Milky Way. Well
there are nine planets in the Solar System: Mercury, Venus, Earth,
Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and the Kuiper Belt (in
order). The middle of Mars, and Jupiter, is a special thing, it is
called the Asteroid Belt. In front of all of the planets, is the
brightening star, the Sun! It is amazing how it is all up there. It is
also amazing that how many types of planets it is up there. There
are so many things to see, but you have to go there and see it
your self! Please read on to see what there is in the Solar System! listverse.com

thing you HAVE TO SEE is the rings of Saturn and Jupiter. In the
picture, it seems like there are no rings around Jupiter, but actually, PLUTO
there is. There is so little many of it that you have to go there to see
it. One way to tell which one is Neptune and Uranus is that the Pluto is a thin atmosphere. It is so cold that it freezes and falls on
