Lesson 3 The Planets
Lesson 3: The Planets Standard S 6 E 1. c Compare and contrast the planets in terms of: size relative to the Earth, surface & atmospheric features, relative distance from the sun, and ability to support life.
Warm Up: Can you list the planets in order from the sun?
What are some things you can compare and contrast about the planets?
Label the planets on your paper.
Label the inner (aka. terrestrial planets) and outer planets (aka gas giants).
Write one of these analogies at the bottom of your solar system sheet: My very educated mother just said uh-oh no pluto. My Very Eager Mother just served us nine pies.
Animation: Distance of Planets from the Sun & Each Other http: //www. classzone. com/books/earth_science/terc /content/visualizations/es 2701 page 01. cfm? chapter_no=visualization (Zoom animation to 300) Run in Place while we travel…. At the speed of today's fastest spacecraft (~20 km/second), it would take almost ten years to travel this distance. Even at the speed of light, the trip would last 5 1/2 hours. In this animation, the apparent speed of the viewer is over 300 times the speed of light.

1. What factors exists on Earth that make life possible here, but unlikely on any other planet? Earth has Liquid water, moderate temperature, and an atmosphere rich in oxygen, which are all needed for life.
2. Which planets in the solar system are called the “gas giants” and why? Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. They are giant planets, much larger than Earth. They are mainly composed of gases and do not have well-defined surfaces.
3. In general, what condition on the planets is MOST affected by its distance from the sun? temperature. It will get colder further from the sun and hotter closer to it.
The Inner Planets Also known as the “Terrestrial Planets” • Mercury • Venus • Earth • Mars
Mercury- 0 Moons Planet Surface Features Mercury rocky surface with many craters Atmospheric Conditions very thin atmosphere Distance from the sun 58, 000 km Diameter 4, 880 km Year Length (Earth Years) 88 days Gravity (X Earth’s 0 0. 38 Moons 0
Mercury Planet Rings Cool facts ? Mercury no closest to the sun high temperature Distance from the sun 58, 000 km Diameter 4, 880 km Year Length (Earth Years) 88 days Gravity (X Earth’s 0 0. 38 Moons 0
Venus- 0 Moons Planet Surface Features Venus rocky surface Atmospheric Conditions atmosphere thick with carbon dioxide, which traps heat under it. Distance from the Sun 108, 000 km Diameter 12, 100 km Year Length (Earth Years) 225 days Gravity (X Earth’s) 0. 91 Moons 0
Venus Planet Venus Rings? no Distance from the Sun 108, 000 km Diameter 12, 100 km Year Length (Earth Years) 225 days Gravity (X Earth’s) 0. 91 Moons 0 Cool facts Close to the same size as Earth Hotter than Mercury because of the Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere
Earth (1 moon) Planet Surface Features Earth Atmospheric Conditions Rocky surface is covered 78% nitrogen with plains, 21% oxygen valleys, mountains, plateaus, active volcanoes. About ¾ of surface is covered with water. Distance from the Sun 150, 000 km Diameter = 12, 760 km Length of Year = 365. 25 days Gravity = 1 Moons = 1
Earth (1 moon) Distance from the Sun 150, 000 km Diameter = 12, 760 km Length of Year = 365. 25 days Planet Rings? Earth no Cool facts Only planet that can support life because it has liquid water, moderate temperatures, & an oxygen rich atmosphere. Gravity = 1 Moons = 1
Mars Planet Surface Features Mars rocky and dusty surface, hills, plains, mountains, extinct volcanoes, craters, Atmospheric Conditions Thin atmosphere of carbon dioxide Distance from the Sun 228, 000 km Diameter 6, 790 km Year Length (Earth Years) 687 days Gravity (X Earth’s) 0. 38 Moons 2
Mars (2 moons) Planet Mars Rings Cool facts ? no Known as the Red Planet due to iron making “dirt” red Ice caps in the north and south poles Largest volcano in the solar system May have once had water May have once supported life Distance from the Sun 228, 000 km Diameter 6, 790 km Year Length (Earth Years) 687 days Gravity (X Earth’s) 0. 38 Moons 2
The Outer Planets “Gas Giants” • Jupiter • Saturn • Uranus • Neptune *No solid surfaces to walk upon*
• outer planets : The planets that are much farther from the sun: – Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune – Outer planets are larger and composed of gas…. Gas giants • Pluto is a dwarf planet – it is not included in the outer planets group because it has different characteristics
Jupiter (63 moons) Planet Surface Features Jupiter No solid surface Atmospheric Conditions slushy ball of liquid hydrogen, • atmosphere mostly helium and hydrogen gases. • large red spot (gigantic storm or hurricane). Distance from the Sun 778, 000 km Diameter 143, 000 km Yea Length (Earth Years) 119 years Gravity (X Earth’s) 2. 53 Moons 63
Saturn (47 moons) Planet Surface Features Saturn No solid surface Atmospheric Conditions Hydrogen & helium gases Distance from the Sum 1, 427, 000 km Diameter 120, 500 km Year Length (Earth Years) 29. 4 years Gravity (X Earth’s) 1. 14 Moons 47
Saturn In 1979 the Voyager 1 spacecraft saw that Jupiter has rings like Saturn too, albeit a much fainter system primarily made up of dust. The particles in Jupiter's ring are smaller than those in Saturn's rings and do not reflect light as well. In the case of Jupiter, physical models suggest that the particles should not be able to remain in the rings very long, thus the rings should dissolve over time.
Uranus (27 moons) Planet Uranus Distance from the Sun 2, 871, 000 km Diameter 51, 100 km Year Length (Earth Years) 84 years Gravity (X Earth’s) 0. 9 Moons 27 Surface Atmospheric Features Conditions No solid • surface completely covered with water, methane, and ammonia
Neptune Planet Surface Features Neptune No solid surface; Distance from the Sun 4, 498, 000 km Diameter 49, 500 km Year Length (Earth Years) 165 years Gravity (X Earth’s) 1. 14 Moons 13 Atmospheric Conditions • methane gas clouds icy ocean of water, methane, ammonia, hydrogen
