Try searching your Timeline, or return to the homepage. An animation shows a spacecraft moving away from the camera into outer space until it eventually disappears. That's why the inner planets formed mostly out of rocky material. It started out four and a half billion years ago, as a big cloud of gas and dust out in space, mostly hydrogen and helium. . The first moon landing, as far as I'm concerned, is one of the greatestmomentsin humanhistory. Asteroids are pieces of rock centimeters to hundreds of kilometers wide that wander the solar system. TIM: Mars is called the "red planet" because of its reddish surface, created by the iron in Martian rocks. Two inserts appear showing the axis of the planet perpendicular to the plane containing the ring. A diagram shows two planets and their orbits. TIM: Scientists think that comets come from far regions of the solar system, called the Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud. TIM: It's huge, with a mass 318 times that of Earth! TIM: Its been really hard to keep track of these guys, since the signals they emit are so weak and so far away now! TIM: The dense, carbon dioxide atmosphere on Venus traps so much heat, the surface can get up to over 450 degrees Celsius.

It's way bigger than our entire planet, and it's been raging for centuries. It started out around four and a half billion years agoBack then, our solar system was just a cloud of gas and dust, probably left over from the explosion of a star. An animation shows a man, Tim, and a robot, Moby, at a campsite. An animation first shows the sun, the planets, the Kuiper belt, and the scattered disc objects. TIM: But scientists are pretty sure that both of the Voyager probes have passed the termination shock, and are closing in on the heliopause. ","What is the Sun? TIM: Sedna, another large scattered disc object, hasnt been fully categorized yet. TIM: Uranus is a gassy planet with small gray rings and more than 25 moons. TIM: Like the stuff in the Kuiper belt, objects in the Oort cloud are thought to have originated way back when the solar system was just starting up. In the animation, Venus moves out of view and is replaced by a drawing of Earth. It's so tilted that it looks like its lying on its side! Charon partially overlapping it on the left, and two small, gray moons labeled Hydra and Nix above and below it. An animation shows the four outer planets, then zooms in to show Jupiter encircled by a narrow ring. But wait, there's more! Like Uranus, it's sometimes called an ice giant because it's so cold.

TIM: By the way, Pluto isn't the only dwarf planet. The diagram expands to show a third planet and its orbit to the right of the previously shown two planets. Tim is lying on the ground in a sleeping bag partially sticking out of a camping tent. TIM: Thats where the solar wind gets stopped in its tracks by particles from the rest of outer space! An animation shows Mars, with two gray moons orbiting the planet. An animation shows the sun, then pulls back to show the eight planets orbiting around it. TIM: Plutos moons, Charon, Hydra, and Nix, are also Kuiper belt objects. Tim and Moby discuss the pros and cons. TIM: Hey Moby, I think I see aliens. For best experience, access this project full size. The arrow labeled gravity is removed and another, yellow horizontal arrow pointing from the sun extending to the middle of the scattered disc and labeled solar wind is added.

An animation shows the gas and clumps of matter swirling around a bright sphere. (, : What can you infer about the temperature on Mars compared to Earth? That's caused by the high iron content in Martian rocks. BrainPOP recommends reading the movie description that appears on the Solar System Topic Page to your class. It likely had oceans and rivers, and its atmosphere contained more heat-trapping gases. Hearts float above Earth. All rights reserved. A curved, orange, vertical line is added along the boundary between the Kuiper belt and the scattered disc and is labeled termination shock.. An image of the Oort cloud is shown again.
