It is like Earth because it has desertsand polar ice caps.
This is the planet Mars.
Mars is named
after the Roman god of
war. The Romans named it
thatbecause Mars’
is colored
like blood.
Mars has craters just like our moon. They are caused by asteroids and meteoroids.
Asaph Hall was the person who Discovered Phobos and Deimos in 1877.
These are Mars's moons
Phobosand
Deimos.
On Mars the weather is horrible! Huge dust storms threaten the Mars Rover.
Scientists send Mars Rovers to Mars so they can learn more about the
planet.
These scientists are testing the landing gear of the rover. It is protected by the bubbles.
The rovers take pictures and videos of the
planet to send back to Earth.
Some scientists think that there is life on Mars. But nobody knows. Is this a worm
fossil on Mars?
Many years from now NASA will send men to Mars. You might be
someone they choose.

Saturn is larger then Earth. As a matter of fact, 833 Earths can fit inside of Saturn.
There is a storm on Saturn right now that has been active for (8)eight months.
SATURN HAS SIXTY (60) MOONS!
Many of Saturn's moons are hard to see.
Saturn is a gas planet. It’s made of hydrogen and

Jupiter is the fifth (5th) planet from the sun. It is made of hydrogen and helium. Jupiter
is the largest planet in our solar system!
Jupiter has four (4) rings. two faint gossamer rings, a main, brightest ring, and a doughnut-shaped halo ring.
Jupiter actually has 63 moons! Here are the four (4) largest ones. They are called
the Galilean moons.
This is a picture of Galileo .He was the first person to report seeing the four largest moons of Jupiter.
Did you know that Jupiter has a New Black Spot?
This summer Jupiter got whacked. It was hit by a meteorite. The
spot Is a couple of football fields large.
This is the great red spot of Jupiter. It is three (3) earths long!
Jupiter's Great Red Spot is a humongous storm. It has been going on for over three hundred years!
All the information says that there is no life on Jupiter. I don’t agree with that. I think that there is life on Jupiter’s moons. I mean, there almost has to be. It is probably not like any life form we know of, but I still think there is life there.

Planetarium is 20 ft. by 12 ft., made with black plastic. Use the star pattern on the next slide to punch holes in the planetarium so that light comes into those holes. Not a student job! We showed research projects inside our planetarium.
You can blow this up using a projector inside the planetarium to punch the holes you need. If you chose not to punch holes, you can use florescent paint sticks to paint on the stars and the names of the constellations. This allows for the magnitudes of the stars to show more clearly. You can also use the website www.skymaps.com to project current maps inside the planetarium.
