OUR SOLAR SYSTEM
3rd Grade Science
Let’s learn about the planets !!!
Mercury
Mercury is the closest planet to the sun.It can have extreme temperatures –
The surface that faces the sun can reach 800 degrees Fahrenheit !!
The surface that faces away from the sun can fall to -300 degrees Fahrenheit.
Mercury has no atmosphere and so has hardly any air at all !!
VenusVenus is a lot like earth – it is almost identical in size, chemistry, gravity
and density. It has volcanoes, mountains and
sand just like earth. BUT Venus is too hot for anyone to be able to live there.
EarthThe earth is made up of 30% land and
70% water.It’s just right to keep us alive!!
We have one moon named Luna.
MarsThe surface of Mars is red !!
All of its dirt and rocks are red.Mar’s temperature is the most like
earth’s.
Jupiter Jupiter is the largest planet in our
solar system.Earth could fit inside Jupiter 1,000
times !!It is a “stormy” planet – with lots of
storms.
SaturnSaturn is the second largest planet in
our solar system.It has 7 rings that go around it !!
UranusUranus is unusual because it spins on
its side. It is also believed that there is a huge ocean on Uranus that may be as hot
as 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
NeptuneNeptune is the 8th planet from the sun.
It is the “windiest” planet and winds are believed to have reached 1,200
miles per hour !!
PlutoPluto is the smallest planet. It
is so small some scientists don’t even think it should be
called a planet.
