Jupiter

Jupiter is, the largest planet in the solar system – more than twice as massive as all the other planets combined, jupiter's familiar stripes and swirls are actually cold, windy clouds of ammonia and water, floating in an atmosphere of hydrogen and it's iconic Great Red Spot is a giant storm bigger than Earth that has raged for hundreds of years.

Mars

It is the second smallest planet in the solar system, trailing only Mercurio in size.

Because of the inclination of its equator, it experiences varying durations of states similar to those of Earth due to its elliptical orbit. Only two satellites, Fobos and Deimos, discovered in 1877, serve as its only weapons. Completes an orbit around the Sun in 687 days from Earth, which translates to one year in the Julian calendar. It rotates sideways for 1.026 days on Earth, or 24.623 hours, just a little bit longer than the Earth's rotation. As a result, a marcan day is about one hour longer than a terrestrial day.

The Earth

Earth is the only planet in the Solar system that is located in the habitable zone.

Approximately 71% of Earth’s surface is covered in water. All of that makes up about 96% of all the water on the planet. Continents are large, continuous masses of land that sit on top of plate tectonics and “float” on the planet’s mantle. Earth is the only planet with just one Moon.

• The atmosphere is an outer layer of gas that planets have that is located between the planet and space. Earth’s temperature is stable.

Neptune

Neptune is dark, cold, and very windy. It’s the last of the planets in our solar system. It’s more than 30 times as far from the Sun as Earth is. Neptune is very similar to Uranus. It’s made of a thick soup of water, ammonia, and methane over an Earth-sized solid center.

• Its atmosphere is made of hydrogen, helium, and methane. The ethane gives Neptune the same color blue as Uranus.
• Neptune has six rings, but they’re very hard to see.

Saturn

Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun and the second-largest planet in our solar system. Adorned with thousands of beautiful ringlets, Saturn is unique among the planets. It is not the only planet to have rings – made of chunks of ice and rock- but none are as spectacular or as complicated as Saturn’s.

• Like fellow gas giant Jupiter, Saturn is a massive ball made mostly of hydrogen and helium.

Venus

Venus is the second planet from the sun and is Earth’s closest planetary neighbor.

It’s one of the four inner, terrestrial (or rocky) planets, and It’s often called Earth’s twin because it’s similar in size and density. Venus has a thick, toxic atmosphere filled with carbon dioxide and it’s perpetually shrouded in thick, yellowish clouds of sulfuric acid that trap heat.

• It’s the hottest planet in our solar system.

Uranus

Uranus was first discovered in 1781 by astronomer William Herschel, but it was accepted as a planet two years later thanks to Johann Elert Bode.

Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun with the third largest diameter in our solar system: with a radius of 15,759.2 miles and an average distance of 1.8 billion miles away from the Sun. Also it is very cold and windy thanks to its mass that is made up of a hot dense fluid of "icy" materials like water, methane (blue-green color obtained of) and ammonia and that it's above a small rocky core.

• In addition it's surrounded by 13 faint rings and 27 small moons as it rotates at a nearly 90-degree angle from the plane of its orbit, making it appear to spin sideways, orbiting the Sun like a rolling ball.

Mercury

Mercury is the smallest and closest planet to the sun of all the planets in the solar system

It is a solid and rocky planet. It is only slightly larger than the Moon, the Earth's natural satellite and both celestial bodies are distinguished by having surfaces covered with craters. Additionally, it has flat, escarpable, and acantilated terrain. Some of these formations extend over several hundred kilometers and reach heights of one millimeter.

• Mercury has the presence of ice in contrast to the Luna. 8 Due to the extremeness of its atmospheric cap, its temperatures can reach as low as -180° Celsius at night and as high as 427–430° Celsius during the day.

The sun

The Sun is the star that is closest to Earth, and it is located 150 million kilometers away on average.

The Sun rotates differently depending on latitude because it is a gas and plasma, lasting 24 days at the equator and about 36 days in the poles. The difference in rotational speed along with the movement of the highly ionized gases causes their magnetic fields.

• It is the Earth's primary source of light and heat. An analysis of its composition based on its mass reveals that it is composed of 71% hydrogen, 27% helium, and 2% heavier elements
