Star wars is a movie about space, its not real but still... I am your father

Thats an atom, atoms make up

everything in the universe

They are made up of electrons, and a

nucleus which is made up of a proton, and a

neutron

And they are really tiny

This is a Black hole, they are the most

destructive forces in the universe

There are super massive black holes in

the centre of most galaxies

There's one at the centre of the milky way

galaxy as well

In the black hole there is the singularity

It has infinite density and no volume

In black holes, space and time are chucked

out the window

I'll demonstrate with this Lego dude

I don’t know what the centre of a black hole looks like so I'm just going to imagne it

Everything that goes into a black

hole gets crushed into singularity

This is an example of a black hole

Far away from the black hole a particle can move in any direction, as illustrated by the set of arrows. It

is only restricted by the speed of light.

Closer to the black hole spacetime starts to deform. There are more paths going towards the

black hole than paths moving away

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:BH-no-escape-2.svg

Inside of the event horizon all paths bring the particle closer to the centre of the black hole. It is no longer possible for the particle

to escape.

This is a theory of the Schwarzchild wormhole

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:LorentzianWormhole.jpg

Wormholes are a mythical thing in space where the fabric of space folds over and meets making a gate in time and space that allows someone to travel millions of light-years in

space

But don’t get to excited, wormholes haven’t been proved to exist yet.

This is Betelgeuse

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Betelgeuse_star_(Hubble).jpg

Betelgeuse is a red supergiant star that's

near the end of its lifecycle

Some people fear that when

Betelgeuse explodes it will wipe out Earth

or something like that

Some people fear that when

Betelgeuse explodes it will wipe out Earth

or something like that

Now, back to the solar system

EarthEarth is the only planet that scientists know has life on it and walked on, humans have been on

the moon but that’s not an planet. The reason Earth can sustain life is

because it has food, water and air that’s

breathable.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:The_Earth_seen_from_Apollo_17.jpg

MercuryMercury is the closest

planet to the sun but it is not the hottest planet.

When a side is facing the sun it gets really really

really hot.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Mercury_in_color_-_Prockter07_centered.jpg

Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system

even though its not the closest planet, this is because Venus’s very

thick atmosphere acts like a greenhouse sealing in all the heat and gasses in the

atmosphere. On earth Venus is called the

morning star and the evening star because it is

so bright.

Venus

MarsMars is called the red

planet because of its red colour but that comes from the metal that its made of which is iron oxide. It has the solar

system’s biggest mountain, Olympus

Mons, it is 21 kms high and is a Volcano

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:2005-1103mars-full.jpg

JupiterJupiter is the biggest

planet in the solar system, it has huge

storms raging on it and one storm called the

great red spot, it been going on for hundreds

and hundreds and hundreds and

hundreds of years.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Jupiter_by_Cassini-Huygens.jpg

Saturn is the second biggest planet in the

solar system, But what its really known for is

its rings, They are made of rock and ice, some of them are as big as houses, and

that’s really big.

Saturn

UranusUranus is made mostly

of Methane which it gets its blue colour from. The pressure on Uranus is so great that scientists think

it might rain diamonds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NeptuneNeptune is the furthest planet from the sun, it used to be Pluto but that’s not a planet

anymore, it is the forth biggest planet in the solar system and you

could fit 17 Earths into it, It also has the great

dark spot.
