The document provides an overview of the solar system, detailing its primary components, including the sun, planets, and dwarf planets like Pluto. It describes unique characteristics of each planet, such as Earth's liquid water and Jupiter's massive size. Additionally, it mentions the moon as Earth's only natural satellite.

2. SOLAR SYSTEM
Our solar system consists of our star, the Sun, and
everything bound to it by gravity-the planets
Mercury,Venus,Earth.Mars,Jupiter,Saturn,
Uranus ,and Neptune; dwarf planets such as Pluto;
dozens of moons; and millions of asteroids, comets,
and meteoroids. Beyond our own solar system, we
have discovered thousands of planetary systems
Orbiting other stars in the Milky Way.

3. SUN
The sun is the star at the center of the solar
System. It is a nearly perfect ball of hot plasma,
Heated to incandescence by nuclear fusion
Reactions in its core. The sun radiates this energy
Radiation, and is the most important source of
Energy for life on the.

4. MERCURY
Mercury is the smallest planet in the
Solar system and the closest to the
Sun. Its orbit around the sun takes
87.97 Earth day’s the shortest of all
the Sun’s planets.

5. VENUS
Venus is the second planet from the sun. It is
sometimes called Earth’s sister or twin planet
as it is almost as large and has a similar
composition. As an interior planet to Earth, Venus
appears in Earth’s sky never far from the sun, Either
as morning star or evening star.

6. EARTH
Earth is only the fifth largest planet in the
solar system, it is the only world in our solar
system with liquid water on the surface.
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,

7. MARS
Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun – a
dusty, cold, desert world with a very thin
atmosphere and the second-smallest planet in
the Solar System, only being larger than
Mercury. In the English language, Mars is
named for the Roman god of war.

8. JUPITER
Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the
largest in the Solar System. It is a gas giant
with a mass more then two and a half times
that of all the other planets in the Solar System
combined, while being slightly less than one-
thousandth the mass of the Sun.

9. URANUS
Uranus is the seventh planet from the sun. It is
named after Greek sky deity Uranus, who in
Greek mythology is the father of Cronus, a
grandfather of Zeus and great-grandfather of
Ares. Uranus has the third-largest planetary
radius and fourth-largest planetary mass in
the Solar System.

10. SATURN
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 half times that of Earth. It
has only one-eight the average density of
Earth, but is over 95 times more massive.

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

12. PLUTO
Pluto is a dwarf planet in the Kuiper Belt, a
donut-shaped region of icy bodies beyond the
orbit of Neptune. There may be millions of
these icy objects, collectively referred to as
Kuiper Belt objects (KBOs) or trans-Neptunian
objects (TNOs), in this distant region of our
solar system.

13. MOON
The Moon is Earth’s only natural satellite.
It is the fifth largest satellite in the Solar
System and the largest and most massive
Relative to its parent planet, with a
diameter about one-quarter that of Earth.
