OUR SOLAR SYSTEM
|
The maps depict our "Sun-centered" Solar System. The first shows an almost edge-on view to show that the planets are all in the same plane. The exception is Pluto which is tilted at a strong angle with respect to the rest of the planets. Some astronomers question it's status as a planet and believe it is just one of many bodies orbiting at the edge of our solar system. Also, notice in the second image that Pluto's orbit crosses that of Neptune. At these times Neptune is our most distant planet. Pluto is the only planet that has yet to be visited by spacecraft, so our knowledge of it is somewhat limited. (To learn more about our wonderful neighborhood click on the planet names in the first image or the planets and sun symbols in the second image. Our moon is not depicted so it's link IS HERE. (The ASTEROIDS Are not shown either.) |
