Hello! My name is Phillip and I am here to tell 

you about our solar system! Hmm..where to 

begin? Ah, yes, the Big Bang theory! The Big 

Bang theory is a theory on how our entire 

universe was created. It was a huge 

explosion which created everything..from 

every planet to every blade of grass. 

Now to explain some basics! In 

our solar system, there are all 

sorts of things like moons, 

planets, and even a sun! Since 

you're new to this, I'll make 

sure to travel to every planet 

and give you a brief 

overview..especially my favorite 

planet, Earth! 

Here we are at none other but...the 

sun! This is our first stop! You're 

probably wondering why i'm 

wearing this crazy outfit. Well, allow 

me to explain. You see, the sun is 

extremely hot! The sun is super hot 

because it is a star. The earth, as 

well as every other planet in our 

solar system, orbits around the sun. 

Every planets warmth and every 

planets light is delivered from the 

sun. 

Our next stop...Mercury! Mercury is also known as “the 

swiftest planet”. It is a small planet, and this planet is 

also scorching hot! Mercury has a very hot surface 

because since it is the closest planet to the sun, the sun 

gives it a lot of heat. One of my favorite things about 

this planet is that if you were to look at the sun from it’s 

surface, it would appear to be three times as large as 

the size we see it on earth! 

 Fun Facts:

Mercury has no rings or moons, and is ⅓ the size of 

Earth. Mercury is also very rocky, and looks a lot like 

Earth's moon! 

Venus is similar to Earth’s structure, however it 

has a very thick, toxic atmosphere that traps 

heat inside. This planet contains thousands of 

volcanoes and deformed mountains. This planet 

is the hottest planet in the solar system!

Fun Facts:

Venus is 80% earths size. It has 0 rings, and 0 

moons. Unlike Mercury's rocky surface, Venus’s 

surface is cratered in volcanic landscapes!

Fun Facts: 

Earth has no rings, and one moon. 

It is believed that the Earth's 

moon was created from a huge 

impact, and the debris that fell off 

of earth formed its own little 

sphere!
