How does gravity have an impact on the solar system?]]> 2017-09-17 00:19:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/188183272 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/189935578 Is there life on other planets ?]]> 2017-09-21 20:33:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/189935578 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190195747 The Sun powers our solar system , if there was no sun then we would not be able to live. Because Earths water would just be ice because it would be so cold. The sun also provides light.

Why is Earth a goldielocks planet? ]]> 2017-09-22 16:08:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190195747 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190290054 Venus is the second planet from the sun. It is called Earth's twin, because of its' size and atmosphere. But there are many differences between Earth and Venus. Venus' atmosphere is made out of carbon dioxide and the temperatures on Venus are much hotter than the temperatures on Earth, they can be up to 864 degrees Fahrenheit! Nobody could survive on Venus.

Could Mars support humane life? Explain your answer in two to three paragraphs.]]> 2017-09-22 20:11:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190290054 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190414619 Venus is known as Earth's sister. this is because they are close in size and gravity but their atmospheres  are very different. Venus is scorching hot. Even though it is the second planet from the sun it is hotter than Mercury because it's thick atmosphere is able to trap the sunlight it receives. 

why can't we breath Venus's atmosphere? What is made of?      ]]> 2017-09-23 14:52:46 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190414619 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190415880 Uranus is the 7th planet from the sun. It is also the only planet that spins on its side, and scientists think this is because an enormous object smashed in to it years ago,  tilting it. It is a faint blueish colour because of the methane in its atmosphere. It is much bigger than earth, and very similar in size to Neptune.                                                          
What is the furthest planet from earth that we can see with the naked eye?]]> 2017-09-23 14:59:44 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190415880 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190490048 The sun is over 99% of the mass of the solar system.]]> 2017-09-24 00:11:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190490048 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190490704 The sun Is the closest star to earth. It is the only star that is as big as we see it. Without the sun the solar system wouldn’t have been the same. It is a ball of burning gas and is what provides life on Earth. Water would be frozen and there would  be no heat or light.

How much of the solar system does the sun take up?]]> 2017-09-24 00:27:47 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190490704 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190541630 Something interesting I found out by watching the video  is that 99% of the mass in the solar system is actually made up of the sun! This means that even with how big Jupiter is and how big all the planets and asteroids are, they still only amount to 1%.

Why is Earth the only planet that is life sustainable? ]]> 2017-09-24 11:44:46 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190541630 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190573202 Venus is the warmest planet in our solar system due to it's thick atmosphere of Carbon Dioxide and close proximity to the Sun. Venus is often know as Earth's "sister" planet because of it's similarity to Earth's size. Though it seems that Venus could be inhabitable, the thick atmosphere and clouds of Sulphuric acid it would be impossible for human life to thrive on Venus.

Could Mars be the new frontier?

They all have a ring system made of rocks, dust, and many small ice particles. Even though they are far away you can still see some of them without a telescope. Other outer planets like Neptune need a telescope to be seen.

What materials/gasses are Neptune and Uranus made of? ]]> 2017-09-24 16:16:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190579843 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190618237 Neptune is the furthest planet(8th) from the sun. It is also a gas giant. Neptune has Methane in it's atmosphere, like Uranus, except it is a darker blue than Uranus- although scientists don't know why. Neptune has 14 moons and more to be discovered. It also takes 164 years to orbit the sun!

I also found out that Venus is the hottest planet in the Solar System, that is because of the thick atmosphere which is made of Carbon dioxide keeps the heat trapped by the surface.

How does Mars get it's red color]]> 2017-09-24 20:58:46 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190622197 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/190626328 The Sun keeps our solar system in place. Its huge gravity keeps our planets stay in place, rather than  drifting of randomly. It also is a reason we can live on Earth, without the Sun we have no heat or light. Then plants could not grow and water would freeze.

The sun makes up over 99.8 percent of the mass in the solar system.

Mercury is closer than Venus but it does not have any atmosphere so the heat just bounces of. Venus has a very thick atmosphere of carbon dioxide that traps the suns heat in the planet. Venus is known as earths sister planet because they are so close in size and there gravity is so similar.

Are there any life on planets other than earth?]]> 2017-09-25 20:34:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/191030042 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/191034865 I learned that Jupiters storm called the red spot has been going on for hundreds of years.

Also it's surprising how much of an effect The Sun has on the planets. I enjoyed how they presented the information made it easier to understand.

My question is if you think we could get fuel from The Sun?]]> 2017-09-25 22:35:34 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/191052031 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/191053596 I learned that Mercury only takes 88 days to travel around the Sun while Neptune takes 164 years. I also learned that Saturn is not really dense so if you have a bathtub that's big enough to fit Saturn, Saturn would float instead of sink.

What is the second brightest thing we can see from Earth]]> 2017-09-25 22:53:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/191053596 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/191055905 I found out that the planets time to completely orbit the sun vary from around 88 days to 164.8 Earth years.

Why does Pluto have moons if it is not considered a planet anymore? Does a planet need to have moons to be considered a planet?]]> 2017-09-25 23:17:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/191055905 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/191056970 What I found very interesting was that it would take Neptune over one hundred and sixty-four years to make a full orbit around the sun. Which is really interesting since the last time it was in the same place it is now was before 1835. Tat means it was before he Civil War, slavery which begun in 1865. The reason it takes this long is because it is the farthest planet from the sun, wich gives it the longest diameter. However it only takes Mercury 88 years to make an orbir around the sun.
Question:
How/and what is the name of the force that keeps the Asteroid Belt together?]]> 2017-09-25 23:29:06 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/191056970 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/191075853 I learned that Venus is the 2nd brightest object in the night sky, apart from the moon. Jupiter has almost 70 moons, but 55 are very small, the size of a mountain.
Uranus is also the only planet in the solar system to have such an extreme tilt that it spins sideways.

Even though it isn't the closest, it is the hottest because it is able to trap heat with its thick atmosphere. It is also the brightest planet in the solar system.

Why are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune called gas giants if other planets are also big and made of gas?]]> 2017-09-26 22:35:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/191480969 https://padlet.com/mspaper/av1in1pdieh4/wish/191485400 Pluto is smaller than all the planets.
