The Milky Way - our Galaxy


•   The Milky Way is
    one of billions of
    Galaxies in the
    observable
    universe.

    in the galaxy that
    has a star in its
    centre.
•   All Solar systems have a Star at their centre and ours is called
    the Sun, which all the Planets revolve around by the means of
    gravity.
• The sun is the
                                       biggest, brightest, and
                                       hottest object in the solar

                                               • Because of the orbits, from
                                                 1979 to 1999, Neptune
                                                 was the ninth planet.
                                               • Like Uranus, the methane
                                                 gives Neptune its color.

Our Solar System by Josh

  • 1.
  • 2.
  • 3. The Milky Way - our Galaxy • The Milky Way is one of billions of Galaxies in the observable universe. • Our solar system is one of millions in the galaxy that has a star in its centre.
  • 4. All Solar systems have a Star at their centre and ours is called the Sun, which all the Planets revolve around by the means of gravity.
  • 5. • The sun is the biggest, brightest, and hottest object in the solar system. • The sun is an ordinary star. • The sun is made of about 70% hydrogen and 28% helium. Surface temperature:6,000 ºC Age:4.5 billion years (approx) Distance from Earth:150 million km Diameter:1.4 million km Core temperature:15 million ºC
  • 6. • Mercury is solid and is covered with craters. • Mercury has almost no atmosphere. • Mercury is the eighth largest planet. Discovered:Known since 3,000 years BC Diameter:4,900 km Temperature on surface:-173 degrees Celsius - 425 degrees Celsius Surface gravity:3.7 m/s2 Distance from the Sun:46 - 69 million km Time taken to rotate on axis: 58 Earth days Time taken to orbit Sun: 88 Earth days Moons:None
  • 7. • Venus is the sixth largest planet. It’s about three-fourths the size of earth. • The surface is rocky and very hot. The atmosphere Discovered:Known since 3,000 years BC Diameter:4,900 km completely hides the Temperature on surface:-173 degrees Celsius - 425 degrees Celsius Surface gravity:3.7 Discovered: In the prehistoric age surface and traps the Diameter:12,100 km Temperature on surface:462 °C heat. Surface gravity: 8.87 m/s2 Distance from the Sun:Varies between 107 - 109 million km Time taken to rotate on axis:243 Earth days Time taken to orbit Sun:224.7 Earth days Satellites:None Distance from the Sun:46 - 69 million km Time taken to rotate on axis: 58 Earth days Time taken to orbit Sun: 88 Earth days
  • 8. • Earth is the fifth largest planet and the third from the sun. • Liquid covers 71 percent of the Earth’s surface. • The Earth has one moon. Age: 4.6 billion years Diameter: 12,700 km Temperature on surface: -88 C to 58 C Surface gravity: 9.81m/s2 Distance from the Sun: 150 million km Time taken to rotate on axis: 23.9 hours Time taken to orbit the Sun: 365.26 Earth days Moons: The Moon
  • 9. The Moon controls our oceans and tides. • The Moon is approximately quarter the size of the Earth. Age:4.6 billion years Diameter:3,480 km Temperature on surface:Varies from -233 °C to 122 °C Distance from the Earth:About 386,200 km and orbits the Earth every 28 days. Satellites:None
  • 10. • Mars is the fourth planet from the sun. • Mars has a thin atmosphere that contains mostly carbon dioxide. • Mars has two small moons. Discovered:Prehistoric times Diameter:6,787 km Temperature on surface:Between -153 °C and 30 °C Distance from the Sun:Varies between 206 and 249 million km Satellites:2, Phobos and Deimos
  • 11. The Asteroid belt is situated between Mars and Jupiter. Discovered:Early 19th century Distance from the Sun:Varies between 387million km and 489 million km Asteroids:are irregular fragments of rock left over from the formation of the Solar System 4.6 billion years ago
  • 12. • The Great Red Spot, a huge storm of swirling gas that has lasted for hundreds of years. • Jupiter does not have a solid surface. The planet is a ball of liquid surrounded by gas. • Jupiter is the largest planet Discovered:Prehistoric times Diameter:143,000 km in the Solar System. Temperature:-150 °C (in the atmosphere) Distance from the Sun:Varies between 740 - 817 million km Satellites:63 known including Io, Ganymede, Europa and Callisto
  • 13. • Saturn is the second largest planet and the sixth from the sun. • Saturn is made of materials that are lighter than water. If you could fit Saturn in a lake, it would float! • Saturn is distinctive because of its rings. Discovered:Prehistoric times Diameter:120,000 km Temperature:-130 °C (at cloud tops) Distance from the Sun:Varies between 1,351 and 1,510 million km Moons:52 officially named (and counting) including Titan
  • 14. • Uranus is the third largest planet and the seventh from the sun. • Uranus is one of the giant gas planets. • Uranus is blue-green because of the methane in its atmosphere. Discovered:1781 by William Herschel from Bath, England Diameter:51,499 km Temperature:-210 ºC (at cloud tops) Distance from the Sun:Varies between 2.7 and 3 billion km Satellites:27
  • 15. • Neptune is the fourth largest planet and the eighth from the sun. • Because of the orbits, from 1979 to 1999, Neptune was the ninth planet. • Like Uranus, the methane gives Neptune its color. Discovered:1846 (proved mathematically 1845) Diameter:49,500 km Temperature:-220 °C (at cloud tops) Distance from the Sun:Varies between 4.46 and 4.54 billion km Satellites:13
  • 16. • Pluto is the smallest planet and usually the farthest from the sun. • Pluto is the only planet that has not been visited by a spacecraft. Discovered:1930 Diameter:2,301 km Temperature on surface:-235 °C to -210 °C Distance from the Sun:Varies between 4.3 and 7.4 billion km Satellites:3
