was able to observe beyond the beginning of the universe‚ where most of the other astronomers of that day focused. In 1781 as he was searching for double stars‚ Fredrick identified an unusual object. Immediately‚ he knew there was more to the solar system than what the naked eye could detect. At first‚ what he thought he was observing was a comet. But just four days later he recognized that the

Planet Nine‚ the new planet that has been discovered inside of our solar system. Planet Nine is a planet that astronomers‚Konstantin Batygin and Mike Brown‚ have found with research and evidence. Because they used research and evidence Planet Nine hasn’t been seen but astronomers believe that they have enough evidence to prove that it is in our solar system. The evidence to prove that it is in our solar system is that scientists have recently noticed a change in orbits of space objects near by‚and

I however don’t believe that living cells of any kind have ever existed in this solar system apart from on earth. I do see the possibility that maybe other solar systems is our solar system in history which is an interesting thought. Just because NASA has found a single cell living creature in a meteorite doesn’t prove anything in my mind. Especially because of the fact that it has

The Earth orbits the Sun in an elliptical uneven orbit and the distance between them varies depending on where the Earth lies in that orbit. The Sun is only an average size for a star but still accounts for 98% of the total matter in our solar system. The solar winds produced by the Sun extends to about 50AU‚ where AU is the distance from the Earth to the Sun. The lightning in the sky is nearly 3 times hotter than the Sun.

Students will use various space related activities to explore the basic concepts and to demonstrate their acquired knowledge. Students will use a variety of text and online resources to explore the subject matter presented throughout this lesson plan. Lesson Objectives: Students will be able to define astronomy and solar system. They will be able

My assessment of mastery was done in several forms: class discussion in the form of a jeopardy game‚ student creation of a “postcard” from their favorite planet where they had to write home to a loved one on Earth telling about the characteristics of the selected planet and the creation of a candy model of the solar system.

exist on a planet in the Beta Pictoris system? First‚ one must ask‚ Are there planets in the Beta Pictoris system?. However‚ that question would be impossible to answer if one did not answer the most basic questions first; Where do planets come from? and do the key elements and situations‚ needed to form planets‚ exist in the Beta Pictoris system?. To understand where planets come from‚ one has to first look at where the planets in our solar system came from. Does or did our star‚ the sun

Saturn is the second largest planet in the solar system. Because Saturn is bigger than Earth‚ you would weigh more on Saturn. If you weigh 100 pounds on Earth you would weigh 112 on Saturn. The Romans gave the planet Saturn its name after their god of agriculture. Saturn is 74‚899 miles wide (120‚535 kilometers wide). It takes Saturn ten hours and forty minutes to complete one single rotation‚ isn ’t that cool! One day on Saturn is only ten hours long‚ ours is twenty-four hours long. Thirty years

Gravity is the force that keeps objects close to the earth Not only does gravity keep objects close to the earth it also keeps the solar system revolving the sun Gravity was discovered by Isaac Newton Acceleration of objects that is due to gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s Also‚ according to Mr. Newton’s First Law‚ once the egg was moving‚ it didn’t want to stop. The container of water interrupted the egg’s fall‚ providing a safe place for the egg to stop moving so you could recover it unbroken
