Gas Giants
All the gas giants have the same 3 elements in their atmosphere.
hydrogen, helium, and ammonia or methane.
This planet is filled with craters and has virtually no atmosphere!
Mercury
What type of galaxy do we live in?
A spiral galaxy
Light is created by this process...
nuclear fusion
The atmosphere is 95% carbon dioxide but 1/100 that of Earth's atmosphere.
Mars
What is the name of the storm on Jupiter?
The Giant Red Spot
Which two terrestrial planets have moons?
Earth and Mars
What group of galaxies does the Andromeda belong to?
The Local Group
The Sun is made up of these two elements.
Hydrogen and helium
The atmosphere is 99% carbon dioxide and 100 times thicker than Earth's atmosphere.
Venus
What is the name of the mega storm on Neptune?
The Great Dark Spot
This planet is surrounded by an atmosphere that is mainly made up of nitrogen gas, oxygen gas, argon, small amounts of carbon dioxide, and water vapour.
Earth
Sagittarius A is what?
A blackhole located in the galactic centre.
How hot is the Sun in its core?
15 000 000 degrees Celsius
This layer has the ozone layer in it.
Stratosphere
Which gas giant gets warmer as you travel deeper into its atmosphere?
Jupiter.
What are Phobos and Demos?
The two moons that orbit Mars.
Aside from the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxies, name another spiral galaxy in our Local Group.
Triangulum
What will our Sun turn into after it supernovas?
White dwarf star
Name the fossil fuels that are being burned and are intensifying the greenhouse effect.
coal, oil, and natural gas
This is one of the least dense planets in our Solar System. If you could find a pool big enough to fit it in, the planet would float!
Saturn
This planet has an atmosphere 100 times thicker than Earth's and its atmosphere is mostly made up of carbon dioxide.
Venus
What is the diameter (the width) of our galaxy?
100 000 light years across.
This reaches millions of degrees and reaches way into space.
The corona
Name a greenhouse gas other than carbon dioxide
methane, nitrous oxide, water vapour,
