Dear student
Orion Orion is a prominent constellation located on the celestial equator and visible throughout the world. It is one of the most conspicuous and recognizable constellations in the night sky. Cassiopeia Cassiopeia is a constellation in the northern sky, named after the vain queen Cassiopeia in Greek mythology, who boasted about her unrivaled beauty. Cassiopeia was one of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd-century Greek astronomer Ptolemy, and it remains one of the 88 modern constellations today. Sun The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System. It is a nearly perfect sphere of hot plasma, with internal convective motion that generates a magnetic field via a dynamo process. It is by far the most important source of energy for life on Earth. The 8 Planets in Our Solar System Mercury The smallest and fastest planet, Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun and whips around it every 88 Earth days. Venus Spinning in the opposite direction to most planets, Venus is the hottest planet, and one of the brightest objects in the sky. Earth The place we call home, Earth is the third rock from the sun and the only planet with known life on it – and lots of it too! Mars The red planet is dusty, cold world with a thin atmosphere and is home to four NASA robots. Jupiter Jupiter is a massive planet, twice the size of all other planets combined and has a centuries-old storm that is bigger than Earth. Saturn The most recognizable planet with a system of icy rings, Saturn is a very unique and interesting planet. Uranus Uranus has a very unique rotation–it spins on its side at an almost 90-degree angle, unlike other planets. Neptune Neptune is now the most distant planet and is a cold and dark world nearly 3 billion miles from sun Comets Comets are snowballs made up of frozen gas, rock, and dust that orbit the Sun. As they get closer to the Sun, they heat up and leave a trail of glowing dust and gases. Asteroids Asteroids are small, rocky, debris left over from the formation of our solar system around 4.6 billion years ago. There are currently over 822,000 known asteroids Meteors Meteors, also known as shooting stars, are pieces of dust and debris from space that burn up in Earth's atmosphere, where they can create bright streaks across the night sky. When Earth passes through the dusty trail of a comet or asteroid's orbit, the many streaks of light in the sky are known as meteor showers. Artificial satellite An artificial satellite is an object that people have made and launched into orbit using rockets. There are currently over a thousand active satellites orbiting the Earth. The size, altitude and design of a satellite depend on its purpose.
