The Sun is the star at the centre of the Solar

System. The Earth and other matter orbit the

Sun, which by itself accounts for about 99.8%

of the Solar System's mass.

Mercury is the innermost and smallest planet in

the solar system, orbiting the Sun once every 88

days.

VENUS

VENUS IS SISTER PLANET TO EARTH. IT HAS

NO MOONS OR RINGS. IT IS COVERED WITH

CRATERS,VOLCANOES AND MOUNTAINS.

Earth is the third planet from the Sun. Earth is the largest of the terrestrial planets in the Solar System in diameter, mass and density.

Mars pronounced is the fourth planet from the Sun in the Solar System.

The planet is named after Mars, the Roman god of war. It is also

referred to as the "Red Planet" because of its reddish appearance.

Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest planet within

the Solar System. It is two and a half times as massive as all of the

other planets in our Solar System combined. Jupiter is classified as a

gas giant, along with Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun and the second largest planet in the Solar System, after Jupiter.

Uranus or is the seventh planet from the Sun and

the third-largest and fourth-most massive planet in

the solar system.

Neptune is the eighth and farthest planet from the

Sun in the Solar System. It is the fourth largest

planet by diameter, and the third largest by mass.

A star is a massive, luminous ball of plasma. The nearest star to Earth is the Sun, which is the

source of most of the energy on Earth. Other stars are visible in the night sky, when they are

not outshone by the Sun.

A meteorite is a natural object originating in outer space that survives an impact

with the Earth's surface. While in space it is called a meteoroid. When it enters the

atmosphere, impact pressure causes the body to heat up and emit light, thus

forming a fireball, also known as a meteor or shooting star.
