Solar system planets pictures with names

Nothing on this Earth can make you feel smaller than realizing that there’s an entire Universe out there. Possibly even just one of many Universes full of galaxies and planetary systems like our solar system. But precisely what is the solar system? What is it made up of and how and why are we such an insignificant part of it? Furthermore, is Pluto
actually considered a planet again or not? Our solar system is the group of planets that orbit the Sun. That big, round, bright thing we see in the sky that seems to move around us every day? We're actually moving around it right alongside our eight - or nine, depending on where you stand with Pluto - planetary siblings and all that comes with them.
The Solar System is also billions upon billions of years old; older than the dinosaurs and Game of Thrones.Did you know? There are some really fun ways to remember the names and order of the planets. Just make up a mnemonic sentence! Try this one: My Very Easy Method Just Speeds Up Naming Planets. adventtr / Getty Images Mercury is the
planet in the solar system that's situated the closest to the sun. Except for Pluto, which is a dwarf planet, it's also the smallest of the set. Named after the Roman Messenger God, Mercury, you might have seen or heard people mention Mercury being in retrograde. Or, as another variant, blaming it for things going on around them. When Mercury
moves into retrograde, it means that the planet appears to be moving backward. This is actually just an illusion for those of us on Earth. 3quarks / Getty Images Venus is the planet situated between Mercury and Earth. Its name comes from the Roman goddess of love and is special enough that we can see it pretty clearly from Earth at certain parts of
the year. You also don't need a telescope to do so. In the sky, Venus appears to be the second brightest object in the heavens after the Moon. Therefore, that large, bright star you sometimes see up there? It's not a UFO; it's Venus. manjik / Getty Images Although we know most of what we need to know about Earth, being that it's our planet and all,
there are still plenty of unanswered questions. Like, why is Earth the only planet that we didn’t name after a God? Particularly given that it’s the only planet in our solar system that, as far as we know, also harbors life. On the contrary, however, there have been many gods named after it. Earth is believed to be around 4.5 billion years old. In fact, the
whole solar system is the same age. AleksandarGeorgiev / Getty Images Mars is one of the only other planets in the solar system that we've been able to explore. As one of the most studied bodies in the sky, we've been able to learn about its climate now and in the past. As well as this, we've also been made privy to the existence of now-extinct
volcanoes, deserts, and even polar ice caps. The Red Planet has two moons and might one day actually be able to harbor life. manjik / Getty Images Jupiter is the biggest of the solar system's planets. In fact, it's so large that it's twice as big as all of the other planets combined. Although we've yet to explore Jupiter, we're doing so at the moment with
an orbiter called Juno that is investigating this unknown landscape. The large red spot on the planet's surface is a giant storm that's been ongoing for hundreds of years. What's more, is it has over 75 moons. How's that for a Star Wars plotline? 3quarks / Getty Images One of the most recognizable planets, Saturn is usually the image we draw when
we're thinking of space. Adorned with beautiful rings, Saturn is, alongside its neighbor Jupiter, primarily made up of hydrogen and helium. Furthermore, while Saturn itself can't support life, we have it on good authority that some of its 50+ moons just might. Smith Collection / Getty Images Despite being the butt of all space jokes, Uranus is an ice
giant and a very serious player in the solar system. If you're to think of Hoth, in The Empire Strikes Back, this would be the closest thing to how Uranus might look if it were habitable. Most of its surface area is made up of icy materials such as water and methane. Because of this, not a single spacecraft has gotten close enough to explore. MarcelC /
Getty Images Like its neighbor before it, Neptune is also an ice planet. It currently has 13 confirmed moons, all of which are named after nymphs and other beings from Greek mythology. Not a lot is known about Neptune compared to the other planets in the solar system. That being said, what we do know is that it's the solar system's windiest planet.
Its winds can hit speeds faster than a fighter jet, more than four times Earth's strongest. alexaldo / Getty Images Pluto is a tiny dwarf planet at the very edge of the solar system. It's actually so small that it's smaller than the Moon. According to NASA, Pluto is a stunning, fascinating world. As well as having blue skies, high mountains, and a heart-
shaped glacier, it also has red snow. Whether or not you consider Pluto part of our main solar system or not, you can't deny its climb back to the top. When scientists said that Pluto couldn't be considered a real planet, the Internet flipped. Science might run the world, but meme culture is not to be reckoned with. dottedhippo / Getty Images As you

very long time. Some of the most interesting objects in our solar system are also the smallest or largest. In addition to the sun, planets, and moons, our solar system has a variety of small objects such as asteroids, comets, stars, meteors, and moons. These have affected what has happened on Earth in many ways.AsteroidsAn asteroid, if you're lucky
enough to see one, is an amazing sight. They are the most common small objects in our solar system. They have small, rocky bodies that often are unusual shapes. There are tens of thousands of asteroids in the solar system. Most of them are in what is called the asteroid belt, which is a band of asteroids that remain mostly in an area between the
orbits of Mars and Jupiter. This band of asteroids may have begun as a planet that was broken apart in a collision with another planet early in our solar system's history, or it could be material left over from when the solar system formed. Wherever it came from, this collection of small objects can't form into a planet because of gas-giant Jupiter's
gravity. (There are other asteroid groups in the inner solar system.)Even though asteroids are usually very small, some of them have their own tiny moons. As the Galileo spacecraft was on its way to Jupiter, it sent back pictures of the asteroid Ida with its own tiny moon, Dactyl. Galileo took pictures of Ida as it flew by, but no one knew it had its own
moon until scientists started studying the images.Asteroids have also affected life here on Earth in unpleasant ways. Earth has been hit by asteroids many times in its past. Asteroid impacts have left their marks behind in craters that we can still see today.CometsOne of the most awe-inspiring sights in the night sky is a comet. Seeing a comet with its
small, glowing head followed by a long, graceful tail moving across the sky is something you will remember for a very long time. For thousands of years, people thought comets were signs that something very bad was about to happen. When a comet flashed across the sky, it wasn't unusual for civil and religious leaders and the public to go into a panic
trying to figure what bad thing was going to happen next.In the 1700s, British astronomer Edmund Halley proved comets were objects that moved in a predictable way and had orbits just like the rest of the objects in the solar system. The most famous comet, Halley's Comet, is named in his honor. He correctly predicted that it would return to our
solar system every 76 years.We now know that comets begin in the Oort Cloud, which is a vast cloud of ice and dust objects at the outer edge of our solar system. Every once in a while, for reasons that we still don't quite understand, one of these objects gets bumped out of its orbit and drops into the inner solar system. It is then a comet, and it gives
us a great sky show.StarsStars are glowing spheres of hot gases. Many have been around since early in the history of the universe. Other stars, like our sun, came from material produced by the first stars. Astronomers believe that stars have a specific life cycle in which they are born, grow, and die.Stars form within enormous clouds of gas drawn
together by gravity. As the gas contracts near the center of the cloud, its temperature increases. When the temperature reaches about four million degrees Fahrenheit, nuclear fusion begins, tremendous amounts of energy are produced, and the star begins to shine. Over a star's life, many changes in appearance occur, mostly due to changes in the
production of energy at its core.All stars form in pretty much the same way, but they are very different at different points in their life cycle. Also, the later stages of a star's life can take any of several paths, depending on the mass of the star or on how much matter it is made of.Shooting StarsShooting stars aren't really stars at all. They are just tiny
bits of rock, usually smaller than a garden pea, burning up as they crash into Earth's atmosphere at speeds of thousands of miles per hour. Occasionally we are treated to a meteor shower and sometimes even a meteor storm. This happens when Earth plows through a large number of dust particles. These dust particles come from comets, which also
put on a great show in the sky. When a comet passes through the inner solar system, it leaves behind a trail of dust millions of miles long. These trails remain long after the comet has disappeared. If the comet's path is just right, Earth passes through the dust trail and we get to view a meteor shower.Meteors and MeteoritesThere isn't a difference
between a meteor and a meteorite. A meteorite is a meteor that was large enough that it didn't burn up completely in the atmosphere before reaching Earth. We have found that meteorites can come from other planets and from our moon.MoonsAnd speaking of our moon . . . the number of planets in our solar system is almost nothing compared to the
number and variety of moons that revolve around every planet except Mercury and Venus. Scientists think our moon may have been ripped from Earth in a gigantic collision billions of years ago.Titan, the mega-moon that orbits Saturn, has its own atmosphere of nitrogen. It may also have lakes and possibly even its own continents. One of Jupiter's
moons is the volcanic Io, whose surface is constantly being flexed by Jupiter's gravity. Another of Jupiter's moons is Europa, a striped ice moon. But scientists think it may have vast oceans underneath its icy crust.Neptune's moon, Triton, has geysers of nitrogen spewing through a layer of nitrogen ice. Triton's pockmarked surface looks like the skin of
a cantaloupe. In addition, it orbits Neptune in a backward direction called "retrograde," and may eventually spiral close enough to Neptune to be torn apart by the planet's gravity. Phobos, one of Mars's moons, may, millions of years from now, crash into the surface of the Red Planet.The moons that orbit the planets in our solar system fall into two
categories: icy or rocky. Rocky moons, as the name suggests, are moons made mostly of rocky material like our own moon. Icy moons are made mostly of ice, which can be frozen water, or ice made of other materials.There are only eight planets in our solar system, but there are more than a hundred moons. Scientists believe that our moon and
possibly other moons in the solar system were created when a large object such as an asteroid collided with the parent planet. Some may have been asteroids that got caught up in a planet's gravitation pull. Still other moons were probably formed from material left over when the planets were formed in the early days of the solar system. Saturn has
moons that are part of its magnificent ring system.Most moons have craters, which show that our early solar system was a crowded place with objects crashing into one another. The smaller object in the crash is usually destroyed, but the larger object is often left with a crater.The asteroids, comets, stars, shooting stars, meteors, and moons make our
solar system a beautiful and lively arena.
