The Planets: did you know...?

The Sun is a star - it is not a planet. It is so big that you could fit more than one million Earths inside it. The Sun is the only star we see during the daytime.

Mercury is thirty-six million miles from the Sun and has no moons, it takes eighty-eight days to go round the Sun (at thirty miles per second), which means that there are fewer than two days in a year.

Venus is the closest planet to the Earth. It has a very hot surface and no moons. It is the brightest planet and can sometimes be seen with the naked eye if you know where to look. It is sometimes the cause of UFO reports.

The Earth is orbited by one moon and is ninety-three million miles away from the Sun. The average year is actually 365 days, five hours, forty-eight minutes and 45.51 seconds. Three quarters of the Earth is covered by water.

Mars is a cold, red, rocky planet with two very smail moons which orbit close to the surface. It is the home of the 'Olympus Mons', the largest volcano found in the solar system. It is twenty-seven kilometres high and its crater is eight-one kilometres wide.

Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system, with sixteen moons. It spins very quickly on its axis, and one day lasts nine hours and fifty-five minutes.

Saturn has eighteen moons and is over 800 million miles from the Earth. It is the second biggest planet but also the lightest. If there was a bath big enough to hold Saturn, it would float in the water. It has rings round it made of ice: the particles of ice vary in size from a grain of sugar to a house.

Uranus is a giant gas planet which is over one billion miles away and has fifteen moons. Its axis is at a ninety-seven degree angle, which means it orbits lying on its side - talk about a lazy planet! Neptune is a giant gas planet and has eight moons. It was discovered in 1846, but has still not made a complete orbit of the Sun. One Neptune year lasts 165 Earth years.

Pluto is over three billion miles from the Sun and has one moon. It is the farthest planet from the Sun, but sometimes its orbit brings it closer to the Sun than Neptune: from 1989 to 1999 it jumped ahead of Neptune, then went back to being the farthest. Pluto is the only planet that has not been visited by a spacecraft. Because it is so small, it was not discovered until 1930.
