Venus
Earth
Mars
Jupiter
Saturn
Uranus and
Neptune
Inner Planets
These planets are very close to the sun.
They are made up of rocks.
Inner Planets are:
MERCURY- One orbit around sun – 88 days, One spin on axis – 59 days.
VENUS – One orbit around sun – 255 days. One spin on axis – 243 days
EARTH – One orbit around sun – 365 days. One spin on axis – 1 day Number of moons – 1
MARS – One orbit around sun – 687 days One spin on axis – 1 day, number of moons – 02
Outer Planets
Very-very far from the sun and are huge planets made up of gases and liquids
JUPITER – One orbit around sun – 11 years, 11 months about 12 years. One spin on axis – 9 hours, 56 minutes, number of moons – 16
SATURN – One orbit around sun – 29 years, 5 months. One spin on axis – 10 hours 40 minutes, number of moons – about 18.
URANUS – One orbit around sun – 84 years. One spin around axis – 17 hours 14 minutes, number of moons – about 17.
NEPTUNE – One orbit around sun – 164 years. One spin on axis-16 hours 7 minutes, number of moons – 8
Asteroids
Asteroids are numerous tiny bodies which also move around the Sun apart from the stars, planets and satellites.
They are found between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
Meteoroids
Meteoroids are small pieces of rocks which move around the sun.
