What are they? Asteroids are small rocky or metallic bodies that orbit the Sun. They can range in size from less than 1 cm to hundreds of kilometres. Some asteroids have their own moons. Asteroids are leftovers from the formation of our solar system 4.6 billion years ago.

What are they made of? They are made of rock, metals, and other materials. Some even contain water!

There are three common types: Carbon-rich, rocky, and metallic. Carbon-rich asteroids are dark, contain carbon, and look like charcoal. Rocky asteroids have a stony texture, contain silicate materials and iron, and look like dark rocks. Metallic asteroids have a shiny appearance, contain nickel and iron, and look like steel.

Where are they? Near-Earth asteroids are located 150 million km from the Sun. Most asteroids are located in the Main Belt, between Mars and Jupiter, 330 to 480 million km from the Sun.

Why do we study them? We study asteroids to learn what types of materials existed billions of years ago in order to understand the formation and evolution of the planets. Some of the material trapped inside asteroids might be the building blocks of life.

2016-03-24 - Infographic comparing Planet Mars with Planet Earth. (Credit: Canadian Space Agency)

Text version

This infographic features an image of Mars along with a series of facts that highlight some of the differences between Mars and Earth.

A graphic shows Mars's and Earth's orbits around the Sun.

Because Mars's orbit is different from Earth's, there is one launch window every 26 months.

The distance from Mars to Earth is between 55.7 and 401 million kilometres, depending on its orbit.

Using current technology, it would take over two years for a team of astronauts to travel to Mars and back.

Mars is half the size of Earth.

Mars is one tenth the mass of Earth.

There are 687 Earth days in a year on Mars; that's how many days it takes for Mars to make one revolution around the Sun.

There are 365 days in a year on Earth; that's how many days it takes for Earth to make one revolution around the Sun.

The length of a Martian day, known as a "sol," is 24 hours, 39 minutes and 35 seconds.

The average temperature on Mars is minus 55 degrees Celsius. When the sun is shining in the summer, the temperature near the Martian equator can reach 20 degrees Celsius, but it drops to minus 100 degrees Celsius at night!

The highest wind speed recorded on Mars is 144 km/h.

Water has been found on Mars in the form of vapour, ice and snow.

The height of Olympus Mons, the highest known mountain in the solar system, is 26 kilometres, over three times the height of Mount Everest.

Text version

This infographic features an image of the Moon along with a series of facts that highlight some of the differences between the Moon and Earth.

A graphic shows that the Moon takes 27.3 days to complete one orbit around the Earth.

The mean distance from the Earth to the Moon is 384,400 kilometres. Using current technology, it would take about three days for a team of astronauts to travel to the Moon.

The Moon is one quarter the diameter of the Earth.

The Moon is 1/81 the mass of the Earth.

A graphic shows the lunar phases: new moon, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, last quarter, waning crescent.

Synchronous rotation: One rotation of the Moon on its axis takes exactly as long as one full orbit of the Moon around the Earth. That is why the same side of the Moon is always facing the Earth.

Minus 23 degrees Celsius is the average temperature of the Moon. When sunlight hits the surface of the Moon, temperature goes up to 123 degrees Celsius, and when the sun goes down, it can drop to minus 233 degrees Celsius.

The Moon has 1/6 the gravity of Earth. This means you weigh six times less on the Moon than you do on Earth!

2019-06-07 - Infographic about Venus, the second planet from the Sun. (Credit: Canadian Space Agency)

Text version

This infographic features an image of Venus along with a series of facts that highlight some of the differences between Venus and Earth.

A graphic shows that Venus and Earth orbit the Sun in the same direction.

The distance from the Earth to Venus ranges from 38 to 261 million kilometres depending on its orbit. Venus is Earth's closest planetary neighbour.

Venus is 19/20ths the size of Earth.

Venus is four-fifths the mass of Earth.

It takes Venus 225 Earth days to make one revolution around the Sun.

It takes Venus 243 Earth days to complete one rotation on its axis. One day is longer than an entire year!

Backwards rotation: Venus is one of just two planets (the second being Uranus) that spin in the opposite direction from the others. This means that the Sun rises in the west.

Hurricane-force winds drive the top level of clouds around the planet every four days. Winds can reach speeds of 360 kilometres per hour.

Venus has no moons. Of all the planets in our solar system, only Venus and Mercury have no moons.

Venus is covered with thousands of volcanoes, but scientists don't know if they if they are still active.

A mass of ice, rock and dust drifting in space that often has a tail, which grows as it gets closer to the Sun. The tail is made up of dust and various materials ionized by solar energy.
Asteroid
A body made up of rocks, both metallic and non-metallic, that orbits the Sun, usually found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. They range in size from a few centimetres to nearly a thousand kilometres across.
Meteoroid
A solid body, often an asteroid fragment, typically larger than a grain of sand and smaller than one metre across, flying through interplanetary space.
Meteor
A meteoroid that enters Earth's atmosphere becomes a meteor. It burns up as it travels through the atmosphere, producing a streak of light. A meteor can appear as a lone object (shooting star) or in clusters (meteor shower).
Fireball
A meteor that burns as it travels through our atmosphere, leaving behind a very bright streak of light. Sometimes, it is even visible during the day. This rather rare phenomenon is the result of a meteoroid that is larger or denser than usual.
Meteorite
When a meteoroid does not completely burn up as it travels through the atmosphere, the fragment found on the ground is called a meteorite.

This infographic features an image of Neptune along with a series of facts that highlight some of the differences between Neptune and Earth.

A graphic shows that Neptune and Earth orbit the Sun in the same direction.

The distance from Earth to Neptune ranges from 4.32 to 4.71 billion kilometres depending on their orbits.

Neptune is 4 times the size of Earth.

Neptune is 17 times the mass of Earth.

It takes Neptune 165 Earth years to make one revolution around the Sun.

It takes Neptune 16 hours in Earth time to complete one rotation on its axis.

The average temperature on Neptune's "surface" is -201 degrees Celsius. The surface is defined as the layer of its atmosphere where the pressure is the same as it is on Earth's surface.

Neptune is an ice giant and densest of the giant planets. Its atmosphere is hydrogen and helium with a little methane. Beneath the atmosphere Neptune has a mix of slushy water, methane and ammonia around a rocky core.

Neptune is the windiest planet with clouds of frozen methane that travel at speeds up to 2,000 kilometres per hour, which is three times stronger than Jupiter's winds.

Neptune has 14 moons. The largest moon, Triton, orbits retrograde in the opposite direction of Neptune's rotation.

Neptune is the only planet in our solar system discovered using math. Its position was predicted using disruptions observed in Uranus's orbit.
