Planets Coloring Book

There are different planets in our Solar System, which vary in size. There are eight planets, which are divided into rocky and gaseous planets. It is thanks to a telescope that we can see them from the ground without any problem. If you are interested in this subject, you can choose a picture with planets from our base and try to color them as in reality they have colors.

Information

1. Mercury: The closest planet to the Sun and also the smallest rocky planet in the Solar System. It has no natural satellites and is known for its extreme temperatures.
2. Venus: The second planet from the Sun, sometimes called Earth's "sister" because of similarities in size and composition. It is the hottest planet in the solar system.
3. Earth: The third planet from the Sun, the only planet known to us on which life exists. It has one natural satellite - the Moon.
4. Mars: The fourth planet, called the "Red Planet" because of the shade of red caused by iron oxides in the soil. It has two small moons, Phobos and Deimos.
5. Jupiter: The fifth and largest planet in the Solar System, a gas giant known for the Great Red Spot, a huge cyclone. It has 79 known moons.
6. Saturn: The sixth planet, known for its impressive ring system. It has 83 known moons, including Titan, the second largest moon in the solar system.
7. Uranus: The seventh planet, a gas giant with a blue-green hue caused by methane in its atmosphere. It has 27 known moons.
8. Neptune: The eighth and last planet in the Solar System (since Pluto was excluded from this category). Neptune is known for its strong winds and 14 moons.
9. Platoon: Formerly considered the ninth planet, it was reclassified as a "dwarf planet" in 2006. It is the most significant object in the Kuiper Belt.
10. Dwarf planets and other bodies: In addition to Pluto, there are other dwarf planets in the Solar System (e.g. Eris, Haumea, Makemake) and numerous smaller bodies such as asteroids and comets.
11. Extrasolar planets: Many exoplanets orbiting other stars have been discovered outside our solar system. Research is still underway that may provide us with more information about these distant worlds.

Trivia

1. Twisted Venus: Venus rotates on its axis in the opposite direction to most planets, which means that the Sun rises there in the west and sets there in the east. What's more, one Venusian day (the planet's rotation time around its axis) is longer than one Venusian year!
2. Saturn's rings: Although Saturn is best known for its beautiful rings, it is not the only planet with rings in the Solar System. Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune also have rings, although they are less visible and much more subtle.
3. Water deposits on Mars: In recent years, evidence of salty liquid water under the surface of Mars has been discovered, raising the possibility of life there.
4. The strongest magnet: Jupiter has the strongest magnetic field of any planet in the Solar System. It is more than twice as strong as no other planetary magnetic field.
5. Neptune's suspended winds: Neptune, although farther from the Sun than Uranus, is warmer. One reason may be the extremely strong winds in Neptune's atmosphere, which reach speeds of up to 2,100 km/h.
6. Barycentric system: The Sun is not exactly at the center of the Solar System. Because of Jupiter's mass, the center of mass of the entire Solar System (called the barycenter) is not inside the Sun, but close to its surface.
7. Largest mountain: The largest mountain in the Solar System, Olympus Mons, is located on Mars and is almost three times higher than Mount Everest.
8. Earth - the only one with life: Earth is the only planet we know that has life. In fact, there are so many different forms of life on Earth that scientists are still discovering new species.
9. The mysterious rings of Uranus: The rings of Uranus were discovered by accident in 1977. They are very dark and consist mainly of ice and rocks.
10. Pluto affinity: Although Pluto is no longer classified as a full-fledged planet, it has an interesting feature: its orbit is strongly inclined and crosses the orbit of Neptune.
