Mercury planet
Mercury - closest and the smallest
planet to the Sun of the eight planets.
Is so close to the sun, that's why there
is no atmosphere.
Was discovered 5000 years ago and
named from one of the Roman gods.
It has a huge metallic core which is
about 2,200 to 2,400 miles.

VENUS
The diameter of Venus is
12,092 km (only 650 km less than
the Earth's) and its mass is 81.5%
of the Earth's
With a mean surface temperature
of 735 K (462 °C; 863 °F), Venus is
by far the hottest planet in the
Solar System.
Characteristics
Venus is the second planet from the Sun.
. It is named after the Roman goddess of love and
beauty.
Earth's "sister planet"
Venus is always brighter than any star
The greatest luminosity, apparent magnitude −4.9,
occurs during crescent phase when it is near the Earth.
Earth
Earth, our home planet, is the only planet known to support life in our solar system.
Earth was formed approximately 4.5 billion years ago.

EARTH
The four seasons are a result of Earth's axis of rotation being tilted more than 23 degrees.
Earth is the only planet not named after a god.
