Saturn

Stars

Mercury

Apollo 13

• Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun
• Saturn's atmosphere is made of hydrogen
• There is no life on Saturn
• Saturn has 53 moons not counting its rings
• Saturn is a giant gas planet which is 94% hydrogen and 6% helium
• Saturn is made out of molecular and metallic hydrogen and the core is made of ice and rock

Mars

• Mercury is closest to the sun
• Mercury's atmosphere contains small amounts of hydrogen, helium, and oxygen
• Scientist do not believe that there is life
• Mercury has 0 moons
• Mercury's surface is covered in craters
• The crust and mantle are made of silicate rock and the core is iron

• a star is a bright dot in the night sky that actually is a large, glowing body like the sun
• Stars form inside relatively dense combinations of gas and dust known as molecular clouds
• Stars start as a cloud of dust and gas called a nebulae, and then soon after turn into a protostar. Eventually The star turns into a main sequence star, later it expands and we get a red giant. Then we run out of Helium and it forms planetary nebulae. Not long after we get a white dwarf until the star completely dies out and then we have a black dwarf.

• fourth planet from the Sun
• Mars' atmosphere is 95.32% Carbon dioxide, 2.7% nitrogen, 1.6% Argon, .13% Oxygen, .08% Carbon monoxide
• no proof has been found of past or present life on Mars
• Mars has 2 moons, Phobos and Deimos
• Mars surface consists mostly of volcanic basalt rock
• Mars crust is the basalt rock,The mantle is made up primarily of silicon, oxygen, iron, and magnesium and the core composed of iron, nickel, and sulfur.

Apollo 13 was launched on April 11, 1970 from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Apollo 13 was the seventh manned mission in the American Apollo space program and the third intended to land on the Moon. Two days after launch an oxygen tank exploded with three men on board. James Lovell, John Swigert, and Fred Haise ended up making it back to Earth safely on April 17, 1970.

• a galaxy is a arrangement of millions of stars with gas and dust that is held together by gravitational attraction
• Hubble reveals an estimated 100 billion galaxies in the universe
• We live in the Milky Way

Meteoroids, Asteroids, and Comets

• A meteoroid is a small body moving in the solar system that would become a meteor if it entered the earth's atmosphere
