Asteroids : are rocky or metallic objects, most of which orbit the Sun in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
Comets : are small, icy bodies that orbit the sun. They have very long tails.
Meteoroids : are small bodies that travel through space. They are stony and/or metallic and are smaller than asteroids. Most are very tiny.
Earth : the planet on which we live.
Moon : the natural satellite of the Earth.
Penumbra : the area in which the shadow of an object (the moon on the Earth) is partial, and the area in which a partial solar eclipse is experienced.
Sun : the star in our Solar System.
Umbra : the area in which the shadow of an object (the moon on the Earth) is total, and the area in which a total solar eclipse is experienced.
Aphelion : the point in an orbit that is farthest from the sun.
Perihelion : the point in an orbit that is closest to the sun.
Planet : a large celestial body that orbits a star.
Core : where the nuclear fusion occurs in the Sun
Photosphere : the lower atmosphere of the Sun and we can see.
Corona : uppermost part of the Sun. It extends for millions of miles and the temperatures are tremendous, reaching one million °C.
Radiation zone : The next layer out from the core is this zone which emits radiation. This radiation diffuses outwards. The temperature ranges from 15 million °C to one million °C.
Neil Armstrong : " That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind "
Mars : it is also called the red planet.
Venus : it is also called the morning star.
Pluto : it is not a planet any more just a "dwarf planet"
Mercury : this planet is the closest to the Sun.
