formation of solar systems have been concluded that the universe has many different types of solar systems and noted that Our Solar system was formed 4.5 billion years ago. Our solar system consists of the Sun‚ 8 planets‚ and 5 dwarf planets and asteroids. Many planets have their own moons. However‚ not all planets have moons. Based upon what we learned in the astronomy course of how everything has a beginning and an ending. Our solar system got created from the cloud that was the Solar Nebula. All

out”. In 1801‚ a icyrocky body similar to Pluto was discovered between Jupiter and Mars named Ceres. A year later Ceres had its planethood revoked because it was very obvious that it really was just the largest member of what is now called the asteroid belt. If Ceres doesn’t get to be called a planet neither should pluto. They have almost exact same characteristics and yet it only took them a year to revoke its planethood. Finally‚ I am going to end this with my opinion on pluto. Pluto definitely

Pluto has some but certainly not all the qualities as it was found orbiting the Kuiper belt which is beyond the orbit of Neptune‚ the current furthest planet from the sun. Pluto has been one of the 9 planets in the past‚ but now that scientists have higher tech machines and programmes to allow them to explore further and deeper than just

The last exhibit we looked at before we had to go into the show was of a museum host talking about the Kuiper belt which is kind of like a asteroid belt but instead of being all rock‚ ice and metal the Kuiper belt is mostly frozen methane‚ ammonia and water. The wildest weather show was pretty amazing with the screen all around us creating a dome and every thing else being completely dark it make for a great

orbits the sun‚ it cannot be considered a planet because of its inconsistency in orbit‚ its size‚ and the abundance of asteroids in the vicinity of its orbit. Pluto does physically qualify as a planet. Being in a state of hydrostatic equilibrium meaning it has enough self gravity to pull itself into a round shape clearly distinguishes it and the other dwarf planets from shapeless asteroids. Pluto is the farthest planet from the sun and the smallest. Even though Pluto was discovered in 1930 not much is

This is all to be cause of Jupiter. There are no facts if the solar system formation happened this way or not. But this video can say for conform that Jupiter’s influence of
