2. GRAVITATIONAL PULL AMONG
THE PLANETS

3. Gravity is dependent on
mass, where all things –
from stars, planets, and
galaxies to light and
sub-atomic particles –
are attracted to one
another.

4. Depending on the size, mass and
density of the object, the
gravitational force it exerts varies.

planets

6. COMETS AND METEORS

7. COMETS
• Comets are frozen leftovers from
the formation of the solar system
composed of dust, rock and ices. They
range from a few miles to tens of
miles wide, but as they orbit closer
to the sun, they heat up and spew
gases and dust into a glowing head
that can be larger than a planet.
This material forms a tail that
stretches millions of miles.

8. Comets go around the Sun in a
highly elliptical orbit. They can
spend hundreds and thousands of
years out in the depths of the solar
system before they return to Sun at
their perihelion. Like all orbiting
bodies, comets follow Kepler's
Laws - the closer they are to the
Sun, the faster they move.

10. METEORS
• When meteoroids enter Earth’s
atmosphere (or that of another
planet, like Mars) at high speed
and burn up, the fireballs or
“shooting stars” are called
meteors.

11. A meteor shower occurs when Earth passes through this material, which
generally happens at only one point in its orbit. As Earth passes that point
at the same time every year, we can predict meteor shower times with good
accuracy.

12. DARK ENERGY AND
DARK MATTER

13. DARK ENERGY
One explanation for dark energy is
that it is a property of space. Albert
Einstein was the first person to
realize that empty space is not
nothing. Space has amazing
properties, many of which are just
beginning to be understood. The
first property that Einstein
discovered is that it is possible for
more space to come into existence.

14. DARK MATTER
First, it is dark, meaning that it is
not in the form of stars and planets
that we see. Observations show that
there is far too little visible matter
in the universe to make up the 27%
required by the observations. Second,
it is not in the form of dark clouds
of normal matter, matter made up of
particles called baryons.

15. • network like pattern
• If cold dark matter is in charge, those filaments quickly
fragment into clumps, causing the protogalaxies to
emerge as separated clusters of stars. Otherwise,
newborn stars light up entire filaments, with fuzzy
dark matter imprinting an additional interference-like
pattern on the arrangement.
• It shaped entire galaxies without touching a thing.
