Space

Space&nbsp;is a place where all our planets and dwarf planets are contained in.

Did you know that the sun's mass take's up 99.86% of the solar system. Did you know 1.3 million earths can fit in one sun, isn't that amazing!

what is space

Did you know The Sun is a star at the centre of the Solar System. It is a nearly perfect sphere of hot plasma, that all the planets orbit around. also the sun is 150 million kilometres away from Earth. Can you imagine 4.5 billion years? Well that how old the sun is. No matter when or where we look at the sun, we will always see something interesting. Scientists observe these changes by watching the sunspots, which increase and decrease about every 10 years.

Not only does&nbsp;Earth rotate around the sun, it also&nbsp;spins on its axis. thats how We have&nbsp;daytime and night time, As the planet rotates, the side facing the sun will get daylight and the the other side is in darkness.

The&nbsp;moon was made when a rock smashed into Earth which made the moon. The&nbsp;moon&nbsp;makes the Earth move as well as the tides.

Orbital period:&nbsp;27&nbsp;days distance to earth:&nbsp;384,400&nbsp;km radius:&nbsp;1,737.1&nbsp;km gravity:&nbsp;1.62&nbsp;m/s² age:&nbsp;4.53&nbsp;billion&nbsp;years
