Uranus is the third largest gas giant in the solar system. It is extremely cold at -370 degrees Fahrenheit due to its distance from the sun of over 2.8 billion kilometers. While Uranus contains water, it is entirely frozen solid. The atmosphere is composed primarily of hydrogen and methane gases, and it may occasionally rain diamonds deep within the planet due to the pressure. Life would be impossible on Uranus due to the frigid temperatures, lack of solid surface, and absence of plants.

Saturn By Maylane
Saturn is the second largest planet in the solar system. It is about 888 million miles from the sun, with a surface temperature of around 290 F. Saturn has an atmosphere composed of ammonia ice, water ice clouds and hydrogen gas. Interesting features include huge iconic rings and storms of various colors. While Saturn contains water ice clouds, it cannot sustain life due to being made of gases, extremely cold temperatures, lack of liquids on its surface, and the long travel time from Earth.
MARS Núria a., Tatiana and Andreu
Mars is the fourth planet from the sun and is often called the red planet. It has polar ice caps and seasons, with temperatures dropping as low as -82 degrees Celsius in the winter due to its thin atmosphere. Mars has two moons named Phobos and Deimos, mountains, craters, and caverns, and completes one orbit around the sun every 1 year and 320 days as it spins on its axis every 24 hours and 39 minutes.
VENUS by Catalina, Núria C. and Onay
Venus is the second planet from the Sun and the brightest object in the night sky. It has no moons and orbits the Sun every 243 Earth days. The surface of Venus is extremely hot due to its dense carbon dioxide atmosphere, with surface temperatures reaching over 460 degrees Celsius.

Uranus is the 7th planet from the sun located approximately 1.6 billion miles from Earth. It is around 23,837 times larger than Earth with a diameter of 31,763 miles. Uranus is made up primarily of hydrogen, helium and methane gases and has a faint ring system along with 27 icy moons.
Mercury
Mercury is the closest planet to the sun and is about one-third the size of Earth. It has no moons and rotates slowly, taking about 59 Earth days to complete a single day while orbiting the sun every 88 Earth days. Despite being close to the sun, Mercury has an extremely thin atmosphere composed of oxygen, sodium, and helium.
Mars By Lina
Mars may have once supported life and could potentially support human life in the future. It is approximately 227 million kilometers from the Sun, giving it a surface temperature range of -18°F to +80°F. Mars has an atmosphere composed of carbon dioxide, argon, and other gases. Water is believed to have once flowed on the Martian surface, but evaporated due to the planet's high temperatures. One of Mars' moons is predicted to crash into Mars in the future.
David's super saturn file
Saturn is the second largest planet in our solar system, located approximately 838 million miles from the Sun. It has a diameter of over 75,000 miles, making it significantly larger than Earth.

Neptune By Jeffrey
Neptune is the third largest planet in our solar system and the furthest known planet from the Sun. It is made primarily of ice and methane gas, and has a blue appearance due to methane in its atmosphere. Neptune has 14 moons, the largest being Triton, and rings surrounding it. At -373 degrees Fahrenheit, Neptune is the coldest planet in our solar system and does not support life.
Neptune By Leticia
Neptune is the farthest planet from the Sun at a distance of over 4.5 billion km. It has a very cold temperature of around -196C, causing its water to be frozen. Neptune has 13 known moons and an atmosphere composed of hydrogen, helium, and methane gases that form clouds.
Mars By Nienke
Nienke Kernkamp's document introduces Mars and discusses several facts about the planet. It notes that Mars may have once or currently support life. The document states that Mars is 142 million miles from the sun, with surface temperatures ranging from -184°F to 80°F. While there is currently only frozen water on Mars, some scientists believe there may still be liquid water underground. The largest mountain in the solar system, Olympus Mons, is located on Mars. The document suggests that with melting ice and altering the atmosphere, humans may be able to live on Mars in the future.
Venus By Jacinda
Venus is the second planet from the Sun and has the hottest surface temperature in the solar system at around 500°C. It has a thick, toxic atmosphere composed primarily of carbon dioxide with sulfuric acid clouds. The surface is solid rock, as the intense heat evaporates any water, and the gravity is too strong to support life. While once possibly similar to Earth, Venus has reversed its rotation direction and is slowly shrinking as it continues to melt under the sun's heat.
J U P I T E R By Marek
Jupiter is the largest planet in the Solar System, with over twice the mass of all other planets combined. It is composed primarily of hydrogen and helium, with bands of clouds swirling in its atmosphere. Below the clouds is a vast ocean of liquid hydrogen, with a dense core many times hotter than the sun's surface. Jupiter has over 60 moons, with the four largest known as the Galilean satellites. Its most iconic feature is the Great Red Spot, a massive storm twice the size of Earth.
Mars By Tom
Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun, around 142 million miles away with surface temperatures ranging from about 20°C during the day to -150°C at night. It has an atmosphere composed primarily of carbon dioxide and features craters, volcanoes and mountains, including Olympus Mons which is the largest mountain in the solar system. While water exists on Mars in frozen form, current conditions are too cold and atmospheric composition unsuitable to support life, though some scientists speculate that terraforming efforts could make Mars habitable to life in over 100,000 years.
Venus By Jake
Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system with surface temperatures reaching 500°C. It is the second closest planet to the Sun which contributes to its extreme heat. The dense carbon dioxide atmosphere traps heat from the Sun and any water would vaporize within minutes. The surface is made up of hot lava under a blanket of toxic clouds, making Venus uninhabitable for human life.
Neptune By Minnie
Neptune is the 8th planet from the Sun located 2.8 billion miles away. It has a bluish-purple color and an atmosphere composed of hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and methane gases. The temperature is extremely cold at -196°C so the water is frozen and there is no life possible due to the deadly gases and lack of water and food.
Mars By Morgan
Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and named after the Roman god of war. It has a cold temperature ranging from -184°F to 80°F due to its distance of 142 million miles from the Sun. While scientists initially thought there was water on Mars, it is now known to exist mostly in the form of ice. The surface is composed of iron oxide and basalt, and the atmosphere contains nitrogen, oxygen, argon, carbon dioxide and other poisonous gases. With melting of ice to create water and machines to remove toxic gases, it may be possible for life to exist on Mars.
N E P T U N E By Renske
Neptune is the most beautiful planet the author has seen in a poster. It has a surface temperature of -196°C and 14 moons. Its surface is made of rock, ice and gases and has no life due to extremely cold temperatures and lack of sunlight.

Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system with surface temperatures reaching over 900 degrees Fahrenheit due to its dense carbon dioxide atmosphere and proximity to the sun. It has no water and cannot sustain life due to the extreme heat and presence of poisonous gases like carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Key facts noted are that Venus is the closest planet to the sun and has the hottest surface of any planet in the universe despite being only the sixth largest planet.
Venus By Oscar
Venus is the second planet from the Sun and has the hottest surface temperature in the solar system at 500 degrees Celsius due to its dense carbon dioxide atmosphere that traps heat. While Venus is similar in size to Earth, it cannot sustain life due to extreme temperatures, atmospheric pressure, and lack of water on its primarily rocky surface dominated by volcanoes larger than Mount Everest. Venus's day lasts over eight months and its dense atmosphere is made up mostly of carbon dioxide and other deadly gases that could crush humans.
