The Solar System
S.T.A.A.R. Review
Solar Power
The sun has exactly 8 planets orbiting it. They are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. All of these celestial bodies orbit the sun to create our Solar System.
All of our Planets
Mercury
Mercury is the closest planet to the sun so it is very hot there and I'm pretty sure you'd die from the extreme temperatures.
Venus
Venus is the second closest planet to the sun so its still hot, don't get me wrong but it doesn't have the extremely high temperatures like Mercury.
Earth
Earth is the third closest planet to the sun so its the perfect distance from the sun to support life of anything, and it is the only planet that supports life. It is also the only planet with liquid water.
Mars
Mars is the fourth planet from the sun. It is pretty good for supporting life but there is only limited liquid water, and no oxygen.
Jupiter
Jupiter is the fifth planet from the sun and is almost the worst planet for life. It is so big and has so much gravity it would pull you towards it and crush you to death ,which is one of the worst ways to die.
Saturn
Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun and has rings along with Uranus. It's rings are different from those of Uranus though its rings are horizontal. It might look pretty warm but it still has freezing temperatures.
Uranus
Uranus is the, you can figure out how many planets from the sun it is. I'm pretty sure you get the hint by now. Its freezing cold here and has rings. It has freezing temperatures, and unlike Saturn its rings go vertically.
Neptune
Neptune is the farthest away from the sun so that's why they have no life (because they would freeze to death) nor liquid water (because it would also freeze up).
The Inner Planets
The inner planets of our solar system consists of Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. They are the inner planets because they are inside the asteroid belt.
The Outer Planets
The outer planets of our solar system consists of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. They are the outer planets because they are outside the asteroid belt.
