Solar System
The Sun:
- A star at the center of the solar system.
- Provides light, heat, and energy for the planets and other celestial bodies.
- Mercury: Closest to the Sun, small, rocky, and lacks an atmosphere.
- Venus: Earth's "sister planet," known for its thick, toxic atmosphere and high surface temperatures.
- Earth: The only planet known to support life, with a breathable atmosphere and liquid water.
- Mars: Known as the Red Planet, with a thin atmosphere and evidence of past water.
- Jupiter: The largest planet, a gas giant with a strong magnetic field and more than 79 moons.
- Saturn: Famous for its extensive ring system, also a gas giant.
- Uranus: An ice giant with a tilted axis, known for its pale blue color.
- Neptune: The farthest planet, another ice giant, with strong winds and storms.
Dwarf Planets:
- Examples include Pluto, Eris, Haumea, Makemake, and Ceres.
- Smaller than the main planets and found primarily in the outer regions of the solar system.
Moons:
- Natural satellites orbiting planets.
- Examples: Earth's Moon, Jupiter’s moon Europa, Saturn's moon Titan.
Asteroids:
- Rocky bodies mostly found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
Comets:
- Icy bodies that release gas and dust as they approach the Sun, forming a visible tail.
Kuiper Belt:
- A region beyond Neptune filled with icy bodies, including dwarf planets.
Oort Cloud:
- A hypothetical cloud of icy objects at the farthest reaches of the solar system, thought to be the source of long-period comets.
Solar System’s Boundaries:
- The solar system stretches beyond Neptune, extending into interstellar space.
Location:
- The solar system is located in the Milky Way galaxy, about 26,000 light-years from the galactic center.https://topteachers.net
