Our solar system
by Bryer
Our solar system was created 4.5 billion years ago. Pluto is the farthest planet from the sun. Mars is the closest Planet to Earth you can sometimes see Mars through a telescope. Pluto’s temperature can get down to -387 degrees and you can frostbite really quick with that type of temperature. Jupiter is the biggest planet in our solar system. There are 8 planets in our solar system. Now let’s talk about earth where we live. Our planet is the only thing we can live on. If we tried to live in space I don’t think we can live that long. We would have to get a lifetime’s worth of supplies and the right way to get there. The moon is probably the most important thing we need but you might not realize. if it was dark and we didn’t have the moon it would be pitch black,and it makes waves to the ocean. The sun is a star. It’s really bright. The temperature can get up to 10,000 degrees. If you brought a rocket ship near that it will blow up because you will have gas in the rocket ship the gas will heat up and blow up.If enuf gas builds up it can make a star or a sun. The first planet is Mercury,our second is Venus,the fourth is Mars, the fifth is Jupiter,the sixth is Saturn,the seventh is Uranus,the eighth is Neptune. Jupiter is a gas giant. Jupiter has a storm that is stuck in one spot called the great red spot that has been raging for centuries.

G’day Bryer,
Some great information on our solar system. Just one thing, with my eyesight getting worse it is often hard to read lots of writing – it is a lot easier if it is written in smaller paragraphs.
I didn’t realise the big red spot on Jupiter was actually a storm. But you are absolutely right about the importance of the moon to us here on earth.
Do you think we might eventually have humans living on Mars?

Yes i do. We as humans are smart and continously finding new things about our planets.
Hello Bryer,
My name is Marco, and I live in the USA. I really like your blog especially this post because it is about the solar system and space. I think that space is really cool, and that rocket ships are amazing. I find it so cool that there are other planets besides the one that we are always on. I always wonder whether maybe in another solar system if there is a planet just like Earth that has humans or some sort of other living creature. Probably not, but who knows?

Hello, No Name
I really like to learn about space! This post really taught me some things about space! Can you make more blogs about space?
sincerely,

Dear Bryer,
I like how you said so many cool and interesting facts about the solar system. You taught me a lot of things about the solar system. I like how much you know about the solar system. It reminds me of when we learned about the solar system in class. Do you think the solar system will disappear? I know the solar system is really big and full of stars and planets.
Sincerely,
Makayla
