Inner planetsEarth and Venus
Earth: Earth is unique in our solar system in having liquidwater at its surface. Earth is 70% water. Atmosphere: extends more than 100 kilometers above the surfaces. About 20% is oxygen and nearly all the rest is nitrogen with small amounts of other gases such as argon and carbon dioxide.
Venus: Venus takes about 7.5 Earth months to revolve around the sun and takes 8 months to rotate on its axis. Atmosphere: Its atmosphere is so thick that it is always cloudy.
![Page 11: Team 1:The Outer Planets and Comets, By: Greg, Alex, Brittany, Freddy and Cameran](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e015503460f94aea750/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Mercury and Mars
Mercury: Smallest terrestrial planet and closest to the sun. Mercury has almost no atmosphere. Its high temperature causes gas particles to move very fast.
Mars: Mars’s atmosphere is more than 95% carbon dioxide. Scientists think that a large amount of liquid water flowed on Mars’s surface in the past. Because it is tilted on its axis it has seasons just like Earth.

Asteroids
Asteroids are rocky objects that mostly revolve around the sun in fairly circular orbits between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. This region of the solar system is called the asteroid belt.
There are more than 100,000 asteroids discovered in the asteroid belt. Some asteroids are so big they are considered dwarf planets.

• A Satellite is an object that revolves around another object in space.
• The moon is a natural satellite of Earth. • A Spacecraft orbiting Earth is an artificial satellite.• The first artificial satellite was named the Sputnik,
its success caused great alarm to the United States.

• When a Meteoroid enters Earth’s atmosphere, friction with the air creates heat and produces a streak of light in the sky , this is known as a Meteor.
• If the meteoroid is large enough, it may not disintegrate completely.
• If not completely disintegrated, it can pass through Earth’s atmosphere.

• A Meteoroid is a chunk of rock or dust in space.• Meteoroids come from comets or asteroids.• Some form when asteroids collide in space.• Others form when a comet breaks up and creates
a cloud of dust that continues to move through the solar system.
• When Earth passes through one of there dust clouds, bits of dust enter Earth’s atmosphere.
• The creators on the moon were formed by meteoroids.

After a large star runs out of fuel, it implodes causing a super nova. The gravity mass is so strong that the gas is pulled inward, creating a black hole.
No light, radio waves, or any other form of radiation can ever get out of a black hole, so it is not possible to detect a black hole directly.
You can detect them indirectly. Black holes can be millions or even billions
times bigger than the sun’s initial mass.
![Page 20: Team 1:The Outer Planets and Comets, By: Greg, Alex, Brittany, Freddy and Cameran](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e015503460f94aea750/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
It is matter that does not give off electromagnetic radiation.
Dark matter cannot be seen directly. But, its presence can be inferred by
observing the effect of its gravity on visible objects, such as stars, or on light.
Astronomers are still trying to find out what the Dark Matter is made out of.
![Page 21: Team 1:The Outer Planets and Comets, By: Greg, Alex, Brittany, Freddy and Cameran](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e015503460f94aea750/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Dark energy is a mysterious force that is causing the expansion of the universe to accelerate.
Current estimates indicate that most of the universe is made of dark energy and dark matter.
Less than 5% of the universe is made up of normal matter.

History of Space History of Space • A satellite is an object that revolves around another
object in space.• In late 1958, the United States established a
government agency in charge of its space program called the National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA).
• On July 20,1969 Apollo 11 astronaut Neil Armstrong became the first person to walk on the moon.
• The astronauts collected nearly 400 kilograms of lunar samples, commonly called moon rocks.

The Future of SpaceThe Future of Space
In 2004, the U.S announced a plan to establish a permanent
colony of people on the moon.
Nasa used space shuttles to perform many important tasks.
These included taking satellites into orbit, repairing damaged
satellites , and carrying astronauts and equipment to and from
the space station.

TelescopesTelescopes
All the colors you see in a telescope is called visible light. It
one of many types of electromagnetic radiation.
Telescopes are instruments that collect and focus light and
other forms of electromagnetic radiation.
The two major telescopes are refracting telescopes and
reflecting telescopes.

The Sun’s Energy
• The sun accounts for 99.8 percent of the solar systems total mass.
• The sun is a huge ball of ionized gas, or plasma, thought.
• About three quarters of the suns mass is hydrogen.
• About one quarter of the suns mass is helium.
![Page 32: Team 1:The Outer Planets and Comets, By: Greg, Alex, Brittany, Freddy and Cameran](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e015503460f94aea750/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Nuclear Fusion
• The sun produces energy through nuclear fusion.
• In nuclear fusion two atomic nuclei combine, forming a larger. More massive nucleus and releasing energy.
• Within the sun, hydrogen atoms join together to form helium.
![Page 33: Team 1:The Outer Planets and Comets, By: Greg, Alex, Brittany, Freddy and Cameran](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e015503460f94aea750/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The Sun’s Interior
• The sun’s interior consists of the core, the radiation zone, and the convection zone.
• The core is where the suns energy is produced.• The radiation Zone is region of very tightly
packed gas where energy is transferred mainly in the form of electromagnetic radiation.
• The convection zone is the outer-most layer of the sun’s interior.
![Page 34: Team 1:The Outer Planets and Comets, By: Greg, Alex, Brittany, Freddy and Cameran](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e015503460f94aea750/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
The Sun’s Atmosphere
• The inner layer of the sun’s atmosphere is called the photosphere.
• The sun does not have a solid surface.• There are dark spots on the sun called
sunspots.• Sunspots are areas where the sun is cooler.• The sun’s interior is about 1.4 million kilometers.• Sun spots usually occur in huge, reddish loops
of gas called prominences.

The Solar Nebula
About five billion years ago, a giant cloud of gas and dust collapsed to form a solar nebula
• Gravity began to pull solar nebula together, as the solar nebula shrank and spun faster and faster. The solar nebula flattened, forming a rotating disk. Gravity pulled most of the gas into the center of the disk where the gas eventually became hot and dense enough where nuclear fusion to begin.
![Page 37: Team 1:The Outer Planets and Comets, By: Greg, Alex, Brittany, Freddy and Cameran](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e015503460f94aea750/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Planetesimals
• Planetesimals formed the building blocks of the planets, the planets grew larger.
![Page 38: Team 1:The Outer Planets and Comets, By: Greg, Alex, Brittany, Freddy and Cameran](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e015503460f94aea750/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
The Planets
• When the Solar System formed the temperature was very high.
• Most gasses escaped the gravity of the planets, that were forming in this region, as a result the inner planets are relatively small and rocky.
• The planets farther from the sun are much colder. As these planets in this region grew, their gravity increased and they were able to capture much of the hydrogen and helium in space.
![Page 39: Team 1:The Outer Planets and Comets, By: Greg, Alex, Brittany, Freddy and Cameran](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e015503460f94aea750/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Evidence
• The composition of the inner and outer planets provides strong evidence for a solar nebula theory.
• Other evidence includes the position of the sun at the center of the solar system.
