More Info on the Planets!!

Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun and is also the smallest of the eight planets in our solar system. For every 2 orbits of the Sun, which takes around 88 Earth days, Mercury completes three rotations of its axis. It is gravitationally locked and this rotation is unique to the solar system.

• Venus is the second brightest natural object in the sky. ...
• Venus is sometimes referred to as the “morning star” and “evening star”. ...
• One day on Venus is longer than one year. ...
• Venus is named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty. ..

Named after the Roman god of war, Mars is also often described as the “Red Planet” due to its reddish appearance. Mars is a terrestrial planet with a thin atmosphere composed primarily of carbon dioxide.










The planet Jupiter is the fifth planet out from the Sun, and is two and a half times more massive than all the other planets in the solar system combined. It is made primarily of gases and is therefore known as a “gas giant”

• Saturn is the least dense planet in the Solar System. ...
• Saturn is a flattened ball. ...
• The first astronomers thought the rings were moons. ...
• Saturn has only been visited 4 times by spacecraft. ...
• Saturn has 62 moons.

Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun. It's not visible to the naked eye, and became the first planet discovered with the use of a telescope. Uranus is tipped over on its side with an axial tilt of 98 degrees. It is often described as “rolling around the Sun on its side.”

• It takes Neptune 164.8 Earth years to orbit the Sun. ...
• Neptune was discovered by Jean Joseph Le Verrier. ...
• Neptune is the Roman God of the Sea. ...
• Neptune has the second largest gravity of any planet in the solar system – second only to Jupiter.

Pluto is the second closest dwarf planet to the Sun and from 1930 when it was discovered up until 2006, it was also considered the ninth planet of the solar system. It is also the second largest dwarf planet, with Eris being the most massive known dwarf planet.

My Favourite Topic in Science

My Favorite topic in Science is Acid, Alkali and Neutral. I love experimenting with the litmus paper.

FUN FACT: If the ingredient your using is an Acid, it will turn the Blue Litmus paper into A Red Litmus Paper.If your ingredeint is an Alkali, It will turn Red Litmus paper into Blue Litmus Paper!

Litmus Paper

My Ambition

If I was a teacher, I would probably be teaching English And Science Or ICT.
