What do you know about
planets?
Mercury is very hot during the
day and very cold at night. It is also the fastest planet in the
Solar system. Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system. One
of its volcanoes, Mat and Olympia’s Mons, is named after the
Egyptian god of truth and justice. The beautiful blue color of
Earth comes from the oceans which cover 70 per cent of the planet.
More than seven billion people live there. The fourth planet, Mars,
is named for the Roman god of war. Until 1976 scientists believed
there could be life on Mars. Jupiter is the largest planet that we
know of. It is a very stormy planet because it spins so fast.
Saturn is 100 times the size of Earth, but it is even lighter than
water, so it would float in a gigantic swimming pool! Uranus is
strange because it spins at an angle. Each pole of Uranus, north
and south, has 42 years of sunlight, then 42 years of darkness.
Neptune takes more than 160 years to go round the sun. It has the
strongest winds in the solar system – up to 2 400 kph. Pluto is not
considered as planet anymore because of its strange
orbit
