Baseball has changed in many ways since it was first invented. In the past, pitchers threw the ball underhand. Now they throw overhand. Also, there weren’t strikes when baseball first started. The batter could just stand and wait for the perfect pitch. Now we have a 3 strike rule and the batter must try swinging each time. Before, the batter could even call what type of pitch he wanted! A lot has changed since then!

Ants do not see or hear very well. They have to find food in a very particular way. First, an ant uses its sense of smell to locate its food. Along the way, it feels for vibrations in the ground to know where to keep away from. As ants are walking, they leave a pheromone trail so that they know where they’ve been. They finally follow the trail back to their colony and give the food.

Did you know that spiders aren't actually insects at all? Insects have 6 legs, but spiders have 8! Spiders also have very unique body parts that make them very special. They have two body parts, the thorax in the front and the abdomen in the back. On the underside, they have spinnerets which create silk for their webs. On the front of the spider’s thorax are the mouth, fangs, and two smaller legs called the pedipalps.

Jupiter is the largest planet in our Solar System. It is so big that it is double the size of all of the planets in the solar system combined! Jupiter is known for its appearance of having whitish and reddish layers with various spots, swirls, and bubbles. It is also well known for its football-shaped, great red spot. This is an area of intense storms. Three Earths could fit inside of this spot! In addition, Jupiter also has a faint set of rings (probably made of dust) that wrap around the planet horizontally.
