The Sun

• The Scientific name is Sol.
• If hollow, one million Earths could fit inside.
• It acts as a giant magnet.
• The Suns surface is 6,000 degrees celcius, but
  its atmosphere is millions of degrees.

Mercury

• It takes 87,969 days for Mercury to orbit the
  Sun one time.
• It has no moons.
• There is almost no air on Mercury.
• Mercury is so hot that you could burn to death
  during the day, but spins so slowly you could
  freeze to death at night.

Venus

• It takes 224,701 days to orbit the Sun.
• You would way 63 pounds here if you weighed 70

8
Earth

• It takes 365.3 days orbit the Sun.
• 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.

9
Mars

• It takes 696.98 days to orbit the Sun.
• Mars is 142 million miles away from the sun.
• Weighing 70 pounds on Earth, you would weigh 27

• Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar
  system. Its diameter is 88,846 miles.

  the volume of the giant planet.
