Info! :)
Mars:
Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and the second smallest planet in the Solar System. Named after the Roman God of war, it is often described as the "Red Planet", as the iron oxide prevalent on its surface gives it a reddish appearance.
Pluto:
Originally classified as the 9th planet from the Sun, Pluto was categorized as a dwarf planet, owing to the discovery that it is only one of several large bodies within the Kuiper Belt.
The Kuiper Belt:
The Kuiper belt is a region of the Solar System beyond the planets, extending from the orbit of Neptune to approximately 50 AU from the Sun.
The Milky Way:
The Milky Way is the galaxy that contains our Solar System. This name derives from its appearance as a dim "milky" glowing band arching across the night sky, in which the naked eye cannot distinguish individual stars.
