2. Welcome to Our Galaxy
Hello aliens from our next door neighbor, Andromeda. We welcome you to our galaxy, the milky
way. This galaxy is the place that is in your dreams. We’ve also got a tour on our human place . We
call it the solar system. We hope that you are interested in this brochure so you can visit us. You
can visit us any time. We humans are waiting for the day you will look at this brochure and say
let’s go to this place. Have a nice tour!
3. Solar System
The solar system. It is a ring of orbits with space objects that
you will learn about. It is a great place to have fun. There are
two belts that are made with asteroids. There are planets. There
are many,many,many moons. There are rings. It has nine
planets. There are gas planets and terrestrial planets. The are
still a lot more to learn for us humans that we don’t know.
6. Mercury
Mercury. The first planet that is close to the sun. It is the
second smallest planet in the solar system. It has no moon. By
our opinion it is very uninviting,but maybe not to you.
Mercury is hot on the side facing the sun and the other side
that is dark is cold. Mercury is famous for it’s craters also. The
crater’s are made by collisions with space objects. It is a jumpy
planet. If you land there, you will have a jumpy day!
7. Venus
Venus. It is the second planet from the sun. It also has no moons.
The surface is always hot .It is so hot that is melts lead. It is
one hot place in the solar system. It is a mixture of cloudy air
and lava .The atmosphere makes it hard to see the surface. So
do not travel there. Although us humans can take pictures of
the clouds. We learned that it is a volcano planet, so you will
be erupted if you get too close. We warn you again:DO NOT
GO THERE
10. Asteroid Belt
The Asteroid Belt. It is a rocky belt of asteroids and meteoroids.
It is a ring around the sun, separating the inner planets from
the outer planets. In 2010, the NASA scientists announced that
they found the biggest asteroid in the belt. They named it Ceres .
A few years later they found it had a very tiny moon. NASA named
it Dactyl . You have to be careful, though. There are meteor
showers. Maybe you can surf there. Send us pictures!
11. Gas Planets
The Gas Planets. They are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
They each have a special character . You will 6ind out. The four
are faraway from the sun. Fast Fact: They are made out of gas so
you can not land on them. WARNING: DO NOT GO THERE
13. Saturn
Saturn. The sixth planet from the sun . The second biggest
planet in the solar system . The planet that has the most moons
than any planet that travels around our sun. We named four
too. Prometheus, Pandora,Atlas and Pan. Saturn is made of
gas. That is why we can not land there . Saturn is known for
it’s beautiful rings. They are made from rock,dust, and ice.
Saturn has thirty nine rings. It has the most rings than any
planet in our solar system . We wish to ride it’s rings, but we
are to sensitive. You can. Tell us how it is to ride saturn’s rings!
17. Pluto
Pluto. The ninth planet from the sun. The smallest planet in the
solar system. Which is why it is called a dwarf planet. It has a
moon, Charon. Charon is about half the size of Pluto. People
consider it, not a planet, but an object from the Kuiper Belt. Pluto
has a very thin atmosphere. It so cold on Pluto, that the sky
freezes and falls down to pluto’s surface when it is at a point at
it’s orbit farthest from the sun. Tip: Pluto is a great place to have a
christmas vacation!
