Our Solar System
17
Earth : The third planet in order from the sun with one satellite, or moon, and takes 365.26 days to revolve around the sun
Planetesimal : One of the small celestial bodies that, according to a hypothesis, were fused together to form the planets of the solar system
Planets : Round celestial bodies that orbit the sun and have cleared out the region of the solar system along its orbit
Asteroid Belt : The region of space between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter where most asteroids are located
Dwarf Planet : A round celestial body that revolves around the sound; it is similar to a planet but not large enough to gravitationally clear its orbital region of most or all other celestial bodies
Meteorite : A meteoroid that has reached the earth from outer space
Meteoroid : Any of the small bodies traveling through space
Meteor : A meteoroid that has entered the earth’s atmosphere
Space : The unlimited, three-dimensional realm where all material objects are located
Asteroid : Any of the small bodies, from 480 miles to less than one mile, which revolves around the sun
Comet : A celestial body that moves about the sun, consisting of a central mass surrounded by an envelope of dust and gas that may form a tail
Prominences : An eruption of a flame like tongue of relatively cool, high-density gas from the solar chromosphere into the corona
Coma : Clouds of gas and dust that from the outer layer of a comet
Gas Giants : The four, large outer planets made of gas, which consists of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune
Sun Spots : A relatively dark patch on the surface of the sun
NASA : An American Space Company, which is very large and popular
Solar Flares : When loops in sunspot regions connect, releasing large amounts of magnetic energy, which causes the gas to erupt into space
