The inner planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are similar to each other. They are the closest planets to the sun and are called terrestrial planets because they are rocky or earth-like. Mercury is the smallest planet and closest to the sun, with extreme temperature variations between its day and night sides. Venus is about the same size as Earth but has a dense carbon dioxide atmosphere that causes a runaway greenhouse effect and surface temperatures over 800 degrees Fahrenheit. Mars is about half the size of Earth, has a reddish appearance, seasonal polar ice caps, evidence of past water, and the lowest average temperature of the four inner planets.

The Solar System is composed of the Sun and the celestial objects which are gravitationally bound to it: planets, moons, dwarf planets and their four known moons, asteroids, meteoroids, comets, and interplanetary dust.

A PowerPoint presentation designed for 5th graders that teaches facts about Mercury, including the Mariner 10 and MESSENGER probes that NASA sent to study it. This is Part 1 of the inner planets.
The Solar System has nothing on the Universe. It's been around for 13.8 billion years, give or take a few hundred million. That means the Universe is three times older than the Solar System.

The universe is everything. It includes all of space, and all the matter and energy that space contains. It even includes time itself and, of course, it includes you.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
The Indian economy is classified into different sectors to simplify the analysis and understanding of economic activities. For Class 10, it's essential to grasp the sectors of the Indian economy, understand their characteristics, and recognize their importance. This guide will provide detailed notes on the Sectors of the Indian Economy Class 10, using specific long-tail keywords to enhance comprehension.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Students, digital devices and success - Andreas Schleicher - 27 May 2024..pptxEduSkills OECD
Andreas Schleicher presents at the OECD webinar ‘Digital devices in schools: detrimental distraction or secret to success?’ on 27 May 2024. The presentation was based on findings from PISA 2022 results and the webinar helped launch the PISA in Focus ‘Managing screen time: How to protect and equip students against distraction’ https://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/education/managing-screen-time_7c225af4-en and the OECD Education Policy Perspective ‘Students, digital devices and success’ can be found here - https://oe.cd/il/5yV
2. They are similar to each other.
Closets planets to the sun.
They are called “Terrestrial Planets”
Terra: “Earthy or Rocky”
MERCURY, VENUS, EARTH, AND MARS
ROCKMETAL
CORE
3. Mercury is
closet to the
sun.
Same size as
our moon.
Orange in color
with lots of
craters caused
by early
impacts.
Hard to explore
because it’s so
close to the sun.
4. - Almost no atmosphere and no water
- It is so small, it’s gravity can not hold the atmosphere around it.
- It has the greatest temperature range of all planets.
The side facing the sun = HOT
The side away from sun = COLD
The core has cooled causing the surface to shrink and crack.
HOT COLD
MERCURY
5. Venus is Earth’s twin.
Same size and shape
as Earth
Yellow in color with
craters too! Carters
hard to see because
of thick atmosphere
We often see Venus
as one of the
brightest objects in
the sky.
VENUS
6. It takes 8 months to
rotate once = long
days and nights!
It takes 7.5 months to
go around the sun =
longer day than year.
It rotates backwards
“clockwise” after
being hit long ago.
Weather Report:
CLOUDY… EVERY DAY !!!
Runaway Greenhouse…
The Atmosphere:
-Thick
- Mostly Carbon Dioxide
- Atmospheric Pressure would crush us.
This thick atmosphere of
greenhouse gasses trap so much
heat it is 870°
Rotation is Funky…
VENUS
7. Mars is called the
Red Planet.
It is half the size of
Earth.
Red in color because
it has “rusted.” (Iron
Oxide)
Has 2 moons:
Phobos and Deimos
Has polar ice caps of
frozen water and
carbon dioxide
Very Cold,
temperatures reach a
frigid -81ºF
Evidence of river
channels and running
water long ago?
MARS
