Research Paper On Mercury Planet

Mercury

Mercury is the closest planet to the sun. It is 35,980,000 miles away from the sun. Mercury is known for its speed. It takes 88 days to do one orbit around the sun (one year). But one of the weird things about Mercury is that one day in mercury is 58 earth days 15 hours and 30 minutes! The diameter of mercury is 3,032 miles (4,480 kilometers). Mercury is covered by a thin layer of minerals called silicates in the form of tiny particles. It also has deep craters.The craters were made by comets or meteors crashed into the planet. The temperature on the planet may reach 840 °F (450 °C) during the day. But at night, the temperature may drop as low as –275 °F (–170 °C). Into 2015 a probe crashed into mercury. Because it ran out of fuel

But when Pluto cuts through Neptune it turns into the 9th planet from the sun, and if you include Ceres (dwarf planet) it will be the 9th planet to the sun too. Neptune name is the Roman god of the seas. In the greek version the god name is Poseidon. People call it the “blue planet”. Neptune is the windiest planet in the solar system. Its gales is six times faster than the fastest wind ever recorded on Earth. Neptune is made of (middle) rocky core (layer after) icy mantle (layer after) hydrogen /helium atmosphere (top layer) high altitude methane ice clouds. Neptune's moon is Triton. Neptune is 2,793,100,000 miles from the sun. The tilt of the planet allows there to be seasons. Every season lasts 40 earth years. Neptune orbits the sun every 165

It's the smallest dwarf planet. The surface temperature there is usually -106 to 34C. Ceres length of one day is 378 earth days. It is 381 to 447 million km from the sun. It is made out of rocks. In 1801 on New Year's day Giuseppe piazzi found Ceres in a strong telescope.Its name is from Roman Goddess. It was the first dwarf planet found.People say it was formed by little pieces of rock and they all collided together, to make Ceres. The lengths of the days on Ceres is equal to 9 hours on Earth. A year is 4.6 Earth years.It doesnt have any moons that we know of. Ceres has been observation venting water vapor. Scientists think Jupiter's gravitational influences prevented Ceres from growing into the size of a planet.So its a Dwarf planet.

Kepler 2.B (Kepler System 22B)

Kepler 2.B Or Kepler System 22B is a gigantic gas planet in the Kepler Galaxy Solar System. The “Hubble” Telescope is the only and soon to be the 1st telescope launched into space and went to look at Kepler 2.B. Just a quick tip- if you want to learn more about Kepler 2.B, DO NOT use Google! You may search for Kepler 2.B and there will be a search that says “NASA.Kepler Spacecraft.Kepler 2b” but that is not it!!! The last thing is you should go to the NASA website and search for this planet.
