Hubble was designed to collect better data about the universe than can be collected from Earth. One way Hubble can get better information is by taking clearer pictures without having to look through Earth's atmosphere, which can make pictures blurry. Because Hubble orbits 370 miles above Earth, it doesn't have to look through the atmosphere and can take clearer and more accurate pictures.

3. Hubble was designed to collect better data about the universe than can be
collected from Earth. One way Hubble can get better information is by
taking better pictures. From Earth, we are looking through the
atmosphere. Dust, air currents, water vapour, and clouds in the
atmosphere can make pictures blurry and less detailed. Because Hubble
orbits 370 miles above Earth, it doesn't have to look through the
atmosphere, so, it can take clearer and more accurate pictures.
4. First of all Mercury is the smallest planet in the solar system.
How much would I weigh on Mercury?
If you were to go to Mercury you would not weigh as much as
you do on earth you would weigh less because Mercury is a
smaller planet therefore meaning that your gonna weigh much
less. For example if you weighed 32kg on Earth than you would
weigh about 12kg on Mercury.
How Hot/Cold is Mercury?
The surface of Mercury that faces the sun would be
approximately 800 degrees Fahrenheit. But on the other side
of Mercury temperature drops to about
-300 degrees Fahrenheit making it almost impossible to live
there.
How many earth days would it take for Mercury to do it’s full
orbit around the sun?
Mercury completes it’s orbit around the sun in about 88 Earth
days.
How many moons does Mercury have?
Mercury has no moons.
5. Mars
First of all Mars is the 2nd smallest planet in the solar system.
How much would I weigh on Mars?
If you weighed 32 kg on the Earth, you would weigh about 12 kg
on Mars.
Amazing facts about Mars:
Mars amazes scientist with its mild temperament is more like
the Earth's than any of the other planets. Evidence suggests that
Mars once had rivers, streams, lakes, and even an ocean. As
Mars' atmosphere slowly depleted into outer space, the surface
water began to permanently evaporate. Today the only water on
Mars in either frozen in the polar caps or underground.
Some people say mars is the "Red Planet." This is because the
surface of Mars is red. If you stood on the surface of Mars, you
would see red dirt and rocks everywhere.
How many moons does Mars have?
Mars has two moons, their names are Deimos and Phobos.
6. Venus
Venus is the 3rd smallest planet in the solar
system.
How much would I weigh on Venus?
Because Venus and the Earth are almost the exact
same size, you would weigh almost exactly the
same on either planet. If you weighed 32 kg on
Earth, you would weigh 29 kg on Venus.
How Hot/Cold is it on Venus?
The temperatures on Venus can reach almost 900
degrees Fahrenheit (approx 482 degrees Celsius)
How many moons does Venus have?
Venus has no moons.
7. Earth
Earth, our home planet is the 4th smallest planet is the solar system.
Some interesting thing about Earth:
The Earth is the biggest of all the terrestrial planets. A terrestrial planet is a dense
planet found in the inner Solar System. The diameter of Earth is 7,926 miles. The
circumference measured around the equator is 24,901 miles. There are currently
almost 7 billion people living on the Earth. About 30% of the Earth's surface is
covered with land, while about 70% is covered by oceans.
Earth is the only planet in the Solar System with plate tectonics. The outer crust
of the Earth is broken up into regions known as tectonic plates.
Did you know?
Did you know that 1 day is 4 minutes than you think it is! It’s actually 23 hours, 56
minutes and 4 seconds. This is the amount of time it takes for the Earth to
completely rotate around its axis.
8. Neptune
Neptune is the 5th smallest planet in the solar system.
How much would I weigh in Neptune?
If you weigh 32 kg on the Earth, you would weigh 36 kg on
Neptune.
Who was Neptune Discovered by and what is the planet
made up of?
For heaps of centuries people did not know that Neptune
planet even existed. It was discovered by Johann Galle and
Heinrich D'Arrest in 1846.
Neptune is the smallest of the four gas giants in our Solar
System. Much like Saturn and Uranus, Neptune's
atmosphere contains hydrogen, helium and methane.
what is the Weather like on Neptune?
Neptune is a very windy planet there is no other planet in
the Solar System that has winds that are as strong as
Neptune's. The winds near the Great Dark Spot were
believed to have reached nearly 1931 km per hour.
9. Uranus
Uranus is the 6th smallest planet in the solar system
How much Would I weigh on Uranus?
It would take you a couple of years to fly a rocket to Uranus. When you got there you
would weigh less because Uranus' gravity is not as strong as the Earth's. If you weigh
32 kg on Earth, you would weigh 28 kg on Uranus.
Interesting facts:
Like Jupiter and Saturn, Uranus is a gas giant. But Uranus is a bit different. Unlike all
the other planets and most of the moons in our Solar System, Uranus spins on its side.
It is believed that long ago a very large object smashed into Uranus. The crash was so
powerful that it completely changed the direction of Uranus' planetary rotation.
Uranus is a really cold planet. It has been called the "ice giant." It is believed that
Uranus is made up of rock and ice and has a large rocky core. Because of the massive
planetary pressure of Uranus, there could possibly be trillions of large diamonds in or
on the surface of this planet.
How many moons does Uranus have?
Uranus has 27 moons. Five of these moons are large and the rest are smaller. The
10. Saturn
Saturn is not the largest planet but is the 2nd
biggest planet in the solar system.
How much would you weigh on Saturn?
Because Saturn is bigger than the Earth, you
would weigh more on Saturn than you do
here. If you weigh 32 kg on Earth, you would
weigh 34 kg on Saturn. Probably not as much
as you thought, right? Keep reading to find out
why.
Saturn is most well-known for its rings.
However, it is not the only planet with rings.
Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune also have rings.
Saturn is a favourite object for many observers.
Its beautiful rings are 169,800 miles wide
(approx 273,266 km). But the rings are
amazingly thin. If you turned the rings on their
side, they would be able to fit between the
goal posts on a football field.
11. Jupiter
Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system.
How much would I weigh on Jupiter?
If you travelled to Jupiter on vacation, you would be very heavy. If you weigh 32 kg on
Earth, on Jupiter you would weigh 84 kg. This is because Jupiter is such a large planet
and so has more gravity.
Interesting facts:
Jupiter is by far the largest planet in our Solar System. The Earth could fit inside
Jupiter more than 1000 times.
Jupiter is a very stormy planet. There are storms found throughout the atmosphere,
and most of the storms seem to never end. The many different cloud formations and
storms in the atmosphere also make Jupiter a very colourful planet.
How many moons does Jupiter have?
Jupiter has 50 official moons and 12 provisional (unofficial) moons. The four largest
and most well-known were discovered by Galileo in the year 1610. Their names are
Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto. Some of the other moons are Adrastea, Ananke,
Carme, Elara, Himalia, Leda, Lysithea, Metis, Pasiphae, Sinope, and Thebe.
