  hour .

5
Mars

  mass of Earth?
• It is 6,794 km in a diameter.
• The rotation around the sun takes about 24.5

• It is about half the size of Earth and has a dry,
  rocky surface and a very thin atmosphere.

6
Huge Jupiter

• Did you know that it takes Jupiter 29 years to go
  around the Sun?
• It takes more than 318 Earths to equal the size
  of Jupiter.
• Jupiter is the 5 planet from the Sun.
• Jupiter probably has a core of rocky material
  amounting to something like 10 to 15
  Earth-masses.

7
Saturn

• Did you know that Saturn is a gas planet?
• Saturn is takes 29 years to revolve around the
  sun.
• Saturn has rings that we can see.
• Saturn has been known since prehistoric times

Neptune

• Did you know that Neptune is a gas planet?
• Neptune is the second to last planet from the
  sun.
