Constellations are a group of stars that make a picture. Sometimes you can’t see the picture because first you have to join the stars up, then the picture appears in your head.

WHAT ARE CONSTELLATIONS?

We also have nature that helps us survive. We are the third planet from the Sun. Did you know that in 22 million years Earth will become to close to the Sun and explode.

We have many dangerous things in space like:*Meteors are a ball of rock that can travel very fast.

Once it gets to close to an object it falls diagonally very quickly and forms a substance around it and crashes and is invincible.

*Space is a huge thing but there is one thing in particular that can kill you – No oxygen. You need oxygen to breathe and there is none in space. There are much more things in space that are much, much more dangerous.
