How was uranus discovered

Accidentally in 1781 then in 1986 voyager 2 flew by Uranus and discovered its rings and moons

Venus atmosphere

Carbon Dioxide and Sulfuric Acid. Carbon dioxide creates greenhouse effect and evaporates sulfuric acid.

belt

Dark heavy clouds that form the darker bands on Jupiter

Titan

Dense atmosphere of nitrogen and methane. Bigger than mercury

does mars have any moons?

Diemos and Phobos

Saturn's atmosphere

Hydrogen helium, ammonia ice

What are the moons of Jupiter made of

Ice and rock

what is Uranus' features?

Internal composition completely fluid. Spins on its side. Tiny rings when probes got to uranus Nasa was disappointed how featureless it was

What are Jupiter's moons?

Io, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto

how big is venus?

It is almost identical in size, and density to the earth.

Jupiter

It's the largest planet. 98% mass of all the planets in the solar system. Its spin on its axis is ten hours so it's the shortest. It has flow patterns that create storms. The red spot is a storm that has been tracked for the last three hundred years. The probes and Galeleo space craft revealed its rings.

mars

Mars red color comes from Iron Oxide or rust in its soil. The surface of mars is full of dirt.

what planets do not have atmospheres?

Mercury

Mercury

Mercury rotates very slowly. The surface has the greatest temperature range of any planet in our solar system.

Neptune atmosphere

Methane that makes it blue. Distinct clouds like Jupiter that make white spots

Venus atmosphere composition

Mostly carbon dioxide, small amount of Nitrogen, trace amounts of sulfur dioxide, water vapor, argon, oxygen, ect.

Neptune

Neptune also has storms. Predicted before discovered by Keller's second and third law in 1846. Smaller and denser than Uranus

how many rings does Neptune have?

Neptune has two thick and two thin rings which surround it. In all 6 made of microscopic particles that don't reflect light very well

the biggest volcano in the entire solar systems:

Olympus mons which is on mars

Saturn's internal structure

Only has a small solid core but fluid elsewhere

Triton

Retrograde orbit

Saturn

Saturn is the least dense among all the planets and the second largest. Pioneer 10,11, voyager 1 and 2, casini space craft have visited them. Magnetic field 1000 times stronger than earth. Aligned with its rotational acess

ringlets

Smaller rings that make up rings of Saturn

Hellas basin

The deepest crater found on the surface of Mars and is filled with dust but the temp at the bottom is 10 degrees cooler than top. Difference In temp creates storm

Io

The gravitational pull of Jupiter makes the plate tectonics active.

gas giants

The name given to the first four outer planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune

How did the Probes that charted Jupiter's moon find them

They used Jupiter's gravity to push them out far enough

Moons of Saturn

Titan and Enceladus

Neptune moons

Triton

Uranus

Uranus rotates from east to west. is on a 98 degree axis. Its atmosphere is composed of hydrogen,helium and methane. Clouds of methane form on Uranus.

is the evening and morning star a star?

Venus

Venus

Venus rotates in the opposite direction of almost all other planets. On the surface it has volcanoes and mountains and sand.

how many rings does Saturn have?

contain open gaps. seven rings made of ice , dust and rocks, general dented left over from collisions of asteroids, moons and so on broken up by Saturns gravity

what produces Jupiter magnetic field

electric fields in the liquid hydrogen

What do the outer planets have in common?

large size and their large number of moons. They are cold. They have rings, lightweight elements, satelites-hydrogen, helium

How big is Jupiter?

largest planet. 318 times size of earth

Saturn's density

less dense than water

zone

light high colored clouds that form the bands on Jupiter

what is Jupiter mostly composed of?

liquid/metallic hydrogen and helium. That's it's atmosphere

Does Mercury have any moons?

no

does Venus have any moons?

no

rotation of the earth on its axis

parallel to the plane of its orbit.

What do the inner planets have in common?

solid, dense, rocky planets. None of the inner planets have rings. Compared to the outer planets, the inner planets have shorter orbits around the Sun, but all the inner planets spin more slowly.
