The 9 Planets

Fun Facts:

Venus is the brightest planet in our sky and can sometimes be seen with the naked eye if you know where to look. It is the solar system's brightest planet -- yellow clouds of sulfuric acid reflect the sun's light brightly

Earth has more exposed water than land. Three quarters of the Earth is covered by water!

 

In our solar system, nine planets circle around our Sun. The Sun sits in themiddle while the planets travel in circular paths (called orbits) around it. These nine planets travel in the same direction (counter- clockwise looking down from the Sun's north pole).
