• Once upon a time there was a little girl named
  Amber and her friend Sydney. She was on her way
  to outer space and decided to stop on all the
  planets. The first planet she went to is Mercury
  which has no atmosphere and no moons. Mercury is
  the closest to the sun. The surface has many
  craters and high cliffs. The temperature range
  from 425 degreas C during the day to 170 degreas
  C at night. Amber and Sydney was burnning up so
  they left because it is the first planet and
  closest to the sun.

• The next planet Amber wanted to land on was
  Venus. The atmosphere is very thick made mostly
  of carbon dioxide and has no moons. Venus is the
  second planet from the earth. Venus is similar to
  Earth in size and mass. Droplets of sulfuric acid
  in atmosphere give clouds a yellow color.
  Surface has craters, fault like cracks, and
  volcanos.

• The next planet Sydney went to is Earth with
  atmosphere that protects life and has one of the
  large moon. The surface temperature allows water
  to exist as solid, liquid, and gas. Earth is the
  only planet where life is known to exist. Later
  after they got tired of earth they wanted to go
  to Mars.

5

• The next planet Amber wanted to see is Mars. Mars
  has thin atmosphere composed mostly of carbon
  dioxide and has two moons. The surface appears
  redish-yellow because of iron oxide in soil. Huge
  dust storm of ten blanket the planet. The surface
  temperatures range from 125 degreas C to 35
  degreas C.

• After Sydney got off of Mars she wanted to got to
  Jupiter. Jupiters atmosphere is mostly hydrogen
  and helium. Continuous storms, swirl on the
  planet. Jupiter has the largest great red spot.
  Jupiter has faint rings and has four large moons
  and at least 59 smaller moons, one of its moons,
  Io, has active volcanos.

7

• The next planet Amber was going to land on is
  Saturn. Saturn has thick atmosphere that is
  mostly hydrogen and helium. Saturn has a complex
  ring system and has at least 47 moons. The
  largest is Titan and it is larger than Mercury.

8

• The next planet Sydney wanted to go to is Uranus.
  Uranus has at least 27 moons. Uranus's atmosphere
  is hydrogen, helium, and methane. Uranuss axis
  of rotation is nearly parallel to planer of orbit
  and its large, gaseous planet with thin, dark
  rings.

9

• The next planet Amber wanted to stop at was
  Neptune. Neptune has at least 13 moons and its
  atmosphere causes its bluish- green color.
  Neptune has dark- colored storms in its
  atmosphere. Neptune is a large, gaseous planet
  with rings that vary in thickness. Neptune is
  sometimes farther from the sun than Pluto.

10

• The last planet Sydney wanted to go to was Pluto
  which is a dwarf planet. Pluto is surrounded by
  only thin atmosphere. Pluto has three moons and
  there names are Charon, Hydra, and Nix. Pluto has
  a solid icy- rock surface.

Asteroids

• Asteroids are between the orbit of Mars and
  Jupiter. A Asteroid is a piece of rock similar to
  the material that formed into planets.

12
Comets

• A comet is composed of dust and rock particels
  mixed with frozen water, methane, and ammonia.
