An animation shows Mars, with two gray moons orbiting the planet. Moby first looks up, then blinks and looks back down. An animation shows the planet with the questions mark disappearing. TIM: But other important parts of the solar system are governed by the solar wind, a flow of charged particles produced by the sun. That means they travel around it in an orbit. TIM: Right, the solar system isnt just planets and the sunthere are lots of smaller bodies floating out there, too. TIM: For a while, Pluto was thought to be the missing planet. Our solar system is also home to asteroids, comets, dwarf planets such as Pluto, and the distant objects of the Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud. Try searching your Timeline, or return to the homepage. Two inserts appear showing the axis of the planet perpendicular to the plane containing the ring. TIM: Yeah, you'd definitely melt on Venus. The surface is divided into shaded areas. Moby thinks and then extends his arms. But wait, there's more! TIM: But Pluto wasnt massive enough to fit the estimates of Planet Xs probable size. Choose a word to explore. Hearts float above Earth. The surface of Venus can get close to 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit. Another animation shows floating objects coming together and forming the planet Jupiter. The screen is split in half vertically and displays Sedna on the left and Mars, significantly bigger and lighter in color than Sedna, on the right. One shows moons circling Neptune. "},"comic":{"type":"comic","instructions":"Create a comic about the solar system. In the animation, the view changes to the planets circling the sun. An animation shows the sun, then pulls back to show the eight planets orbiting around it. A diagram shows two planets and their orbits. TIM: You you know what its like out there? Some of them formed hard hunks of rock called the terrestrial planets Earth is one of these. Only a portion of Jupiter can be seen and the other planets seem very small in comparison. An animation shows a spacecraft moving away from the camera into outer space until it eventually disappears. TIM: Neptune is the last gas giant and it has more than a dozen moons. In the animation, Moby looks up and then looks down. In the animation, Jupiter moves out of view and is replaced by a drawing of Saturn. An image is divided vertically into three equal parts and shows three round bodies of different colors decreasing in size from left to right. 19992023 BrainPOP.

In the animation, the view of the asteroids moves out of view and is replaced by a drawing of Pluto. The biggest was in the center, and everything else began to spin around it. Solar System Discussion Prompts and Pause Points, What do you think youll learn about the solar system in this movie? The rings are a thin layer of millions of chunks of ice and rock. TIM: Neptune is the farthest planet in the solar system. It's got just the right conditions for humans, plants, and animals. Watch it again, this time using the discussion prompts. An animation shows a large grey cloud in a starry sky. When it gets close to the sun, the dust and ice form long, wispy tails that you can sometimes see from Earth. (, What is something new you hope to learn about the solar system? It is depicted with several large concentric rings. Moby blinks, looks at Tim, and then looks at the night sky. TIM: The Pioneer 10 and 11 probes have been out there even longer. TIM: No, you couldn't go thereyou'd probably either melt or freeze.

It then zooms out to show a big spherical object composed of light colored particles. If you An interactive tutorial for finding and using Challenge 1999-2023 BrainPOP. (Compare/contrast; Draw conclusions), Look at the four related movies at the bottom of the page. A diagram shows the terminal shock as an orange circle with the sun and the planets of the solar system, including Earth, in the center of it. TIM: There are more than 1,000 trans-Neptunian objects in the solar system and counting! TIM: Yeah, theyve been traveling in space for about 35 years now! Well, the solar system is our home in the galaxy. Outer Solar System is a Science video of BrainPOP aired on May 14, 2002. The smaller planet is labeled Pluto.. It forms a distant ring around the solar system. Use strategy to up your points! An animation shows Jupiter rotating in space and the sun in the background. TIM: Over the course of millions of years, gravity pulled the elements of this dust cloud closer and closer together until clumps began to form. Planet X was the name given for a theoretical planet some astronomers thought existed beyond the orbit of Neptune. Stop at the following times in the movie and ask questions or prompt a discussion to keep students focused and to assess their understanding before moving on: Timecode 1:12: Why did Earth become an inner planet? Gravity drew this stuff together into clumps, eventually forming the sun and the surrounding planets. Two inserts appear and show the rocky surface. TIM: Others became big balls of mostly gas called gas giants, like Jupiter.
