planets and the Jovian planets composed
of hydrogen and helium.
The terrestrial planets are composed
of Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars.
The Jovian planets re compound
of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.

from the sun?

planets and dense that’s why it is far
away from the sun.
How about the terrestrial planets?
Because, the terrestrial are made up of
rocks, that why it is nearer from the sun.
Sun- is a star center of the solar system. It
is a huge ball of burning gases. Heat and
light from the sun support life on earth.
The classification of star is G2V star. It is
formed about 4.96 billion year ago.
Mercury – smallest in the solar system. It
is made up of rocks and the closest planet
to the sun.
Venus- it is the earth turn, the same size
as the earth and brightest planet in the

lies on its side and has ring made up of
dust. It is known a unique planet because
of orbital period.
Neptune- the dense planet in our solar
system, the farthest planet from the sun
and has many storms.
