The document provides an overview of the planets in our solar system. It describes key facts about the Sun such as its temperature and composition. It then discusses each planet from Mercury to Neptune, noting unique characteristics like Venus' extreme heat, Mars' former oceans and rivers, Jupiter's Great Red Spot storm, Saturn's rings, Uranus spinning on its side, and Neptune being the farthest planet from the Sun at nearly 3 billion miles away.

3. The Sun
• The Scientific name is Sol.
• It contains about 98% of all the rocks, dust, and gas
in the Solar System.
• If hollow, one million Earths could fit inside.
• It acts as a giant magnet.
• The Sun’s surface is 6,000 degrees Celsius, but it’s
atmosphere is millions of degrees.
Mercury
• Mercury is so hot that you could burn to death
during the day, but spins so slowly that you could
freeze to death at night.
• There is almost no air on Mercury.
• It is 36 million miles away from the Sun.

4. Venus
• It is similar to Earth because it has mountains,
Venus quakes, mountains and valleys. You can’t
live here though because it is way too hot.
• It is 67 million miles away from the Sun.
Earth
• We are 93 million miles away from the Sun
• It contains the only human life we know of.
• Earth has just the perfect combination of weather,
temperature, and atmosphere to keep us alive.

5. Mars
• Scientists have found that Mars once had
streams, rivers, lakes, and an ocean.
• It has the highest mountains and deepest
canyons in the whole Solar System. The largest
canyon on Mars would stretch from New York to
California here on Earth.
Jupiter
• Jupiter has a great red spot that is made up of
storms that have been constantly occurring for
over 300 years.
• There is no solid surface here, it is just one huge
ocean of Hydrogen and Water. There is nothing in
between the atmosphere and the ocean.
• It only takes 10 hours to go from night to day here.

6. Saturn• It’s rings are 169,800 miles wide, but less thick
than a football field.
• Saturn is very similar to Jupiter because under
it’s atmosphere is an ocean of liquid
chemicals.
• It is 888 million miles away from the Sun.
Uranus• It is 1, 784 million miles away from the Sun.
• It is the only planet that spins on it’s side.
• Uranus could have ocean under it’s atmosphere,
and because of the amount of pressure on
Uranus, it could possible have trillions of large
diamonds.
• It is almost identical to Neptune. 6

7. Neptune
• Neptune has a giant storm just like Jupiter, it is
called the Great Dark Spot.
• It was discovered in 1846.
• It has 6 rings that surround it.
• Since Neptune is so far away.
• It is 2,794 million miles away from the Sun.
