Our Solar System Earth is part of our solar system,
which is made up of the sun and all of the countless objects that revolve around it.
At the center is the sun- a star, or ball of burning gases. 109 times wider than Earth.

Planets Terrestrial planets- Solid, Rocky crust.
-Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.-Closer to the Sun
Gas Giant planets- Gassy and less dense.-Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. - Farther from the Sun

How is it like on different planets?
Mercury and Venus are scalding hot. Earth only planet that has liquid on
surface. Mars is a cold barren desert. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune
are all gaseous so they are inhabitable.

Asteroids, Comets, and Meteoroids
Asteroids- small irregularly shaped planet like objects.
Comets- icy dust particles and frozen gases that look like bright balls with long feather tails.
Meteoroids- space debris, chunks of rock and iron

Water, Land, and Air Hydrosphere- Water Lithosphere- Land Atmosphere- Air we breathe 6000 miles
up Biosphere- part of earth that supports
life( people, animals, and plants)
