magnitude to degree Celsius (⁰C). The Kelvin Scale is
a scale of temperature measured in degrees Celsius
with absolute zero (-273.15 ⁰C).
 Mercury is the smallest planet
in the Solar System. It is also the closest planet to the
Sun. Thus, it is called the innermost planet. The Sun’s
strong glare prevents you from seeing Mercury with
the naked eye, except for short periods of about an
hour before sunrise and an hour after sunset. It has a
diameter of only 4,879 km at its equator. The color of
the planet Mercury is dark grey and slightly brownish.
Mercury orbits only 0.39 AU (57.9 million km.) from
the Sun with -437 ⁰C when it is day and -184 ⁰C at
night.

Venus has often been called

“Earth’s twin.” It is the sixth largest planet in the Solar
System with a diameter of 12,104 km. Surface
temperatures on Venus are so high because carbon
dioxide in the atmosphere traps energy which causes
 temperature near the surface to remain high. The
clouds of Venus are mostly sulfuric acid which gives
Venus its yellow-white color. It is 0.723 AU (108.2
million km) from the sun. Surface temperatures on
Venus are hotter than those on Mercury.
Temperatures average around 465 ⁰C.

D.Discussing new concepts and Each planet has its own relative size or diameter
practicing new skills #2 and distance from the sun. Study the table below.

Earth is the only planet in the

Solar System that has the combination of factors
needed to support life. It is the fifth largest planet in
the Solar System with the diameter of 12,756 km.
Earth is mostly blue with scattered white clouds. The
Earth circles in space around the Sun at a distance of
1.0 AU (149.6 million km). It has an average
temperature of -89 ⁰C to 58 ⁰C.

Mars is a little more than half

the size of the Earth having a diameter of 6,792 km. It
is the seventh largest planet in the Solar System.
Mars is often referred to as the Red Planet because it
is covered with reddish dust and rocks. When the
Viking probes visited the planet in 1976, they found
that the whole surface has a reddish-brown color.
Mars has a distance of 1.52 AU (227.9 million km)
from the Sun with a temperature of -140 ⁰C to 20 ⁰C.
 Jupiter is the largest planet in
the Solar System with a diameter of 142,984
kilometers, more than 11 times wider than the Earth.
Jupiter is also the massive planet. Its mass is twice
that of the other seven planets combined. The color is
mostly in shades of orange, red, brown, and yellow
with whitish bands. Jupiter lies more than three times
as far away from the Sun as Mars, at a distance of
some 5.20 AU (778.3 km). The gas giant planets are
cold. Jupiter has a surface temperature of -150 ⁰C.

Saturn is well known for its

system of three rings. It is the second largest planet
with an equatorial diameter of 120,536 km. The color
of the elegant planet Saturn is Pale Gold. Due to the
hydrogen in the atmosphere, the clouds acquire a
deep red color. But this red color is obscured by the
clouds of ammonia which makes up the outer most
layer and covers the entire planet. This outer layer of
ammonia, however, is bright white in color due to its
exposure to the Sun. The deep red clouds when
combined with the white ammonium give the beautiful
pale gold color. Saturn has a distance of 9.58 AU
(1.43 billion km) from the sun and a surface
temperature of -180 ⁰C.
 Uranus is 51,118 kilometers in
diameter making it the third largest planet in the Solar
System. Just like Jupiter and Saturn, the Voyager
probe gave us our first look at the planet in 1986.
Uranus has a pale blue color. But what gives it the
pale blue color is the methane that is present in its
atmosphere. Uranus has a distance of 19.2 AU (2.871
billion km) from the Sun. The effective temperature of
Uranus atmosphere is 220 ⁰C, the coldest in our Solar
System.

Neptune is practically a twin to

Uranus. It has a diameter of 49,528 kilometers and is
the fourth largest planet in the Solar System. The
planet’s bluish color is caused by the absorption of red
light by methane. But because Neptune does not have
an atmospheric haze like Uranus does, we can see
deeper into the atmosphere, so Neptune appears
blue, whereas Uranus is blue-green. So, after Uranus
comes the planet Neptune, nearly 30.1 AU (4.5 billion
km) away from the Sun with an average temperature
of -210 ⁰C.
