OUR SOLAR SYSTEM

1. Solar system

2. Mercury is the smallest planet in our solar system. ... Along
with Venus, Earth, and Mars, Mercury is one of the rocky
planets. It has a solid surface that is covered with craters. It
has no atmosphere, and it doesn't have any moons.

3. Venus is the second planet from the Sun, and is Earth's
closest neighbor in the solar system. Venus is the
brightest object in the sky after the Sun and the Moon,
and sometimes looks like a bright star in the morning or
evening sky. The planet is a little smaller than Earth, and
is similar to Earth inside

4. Earth, our home planet, is a world unlike any other. The
third planet from the sun, Earth is the only place in the
known universe confirmed to host life. With a radius of
3,959 miles, Earth is the fifth largest planet in our solar
system, and it's the only one known for sure to have liquid
water on its surface.

5. Mars is sometimes called the Red Planet. It's red
because of rusty iron in the ground. Like Earth, Mars has
seasons, polar ice caps, volcanoes, canyons, and
weather. It has a very thin atmosphere made of carbon
dioxide, nitrogen, and argon.

6. Jupiter is the fifth planet from our Sun and is, by far, the
largest planet in the solar system – more than twice as
massive as all the
other planets combined. Jupiter's stripes and swirls are
actually cold, windy clouds of ammonia and water, floating
in an atmosphere of hydrogen and helium

7. Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun and the second-
largest in the Solar System, after Jupiter. It is a gas giant
with an average radius of about nine and a half times that
of Earth.

8. Uranus is made of water, methane, and ammonia fluids
above a small rocky center. Its atmosphere is made of
hydrogen and helium like Jupiter and Saturn, but it also
has methane. ... Like Venus, Uranus rotates in the
opposite direction as most other planets. And unlike any
other planet, Uranus rotates on its side

9. Neptune is the eighth and farthest-known Solar planet
from the Sun. In the Solar System, it is the fourth-largest
planet by diameter, the third-most-massive planet, and the
densest giant planet. It is 17 times the mass of Earth,
slightly more massive than its near-twin Uranus
