The Solar System
Solar System means the vast place, with lots of empty space between the planets. There are Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. All of the planets are born from 45 billion years ago when the Sun was burst. It formed to be a planet like gas planets and terrestrial planets. Gas planets is a solid metals or rock that don’t have the solid surface, you would unable to walk on them. As terrestrial planets are made from mostly of silicate rocks and metals with a solid surface, but the Earth is the only one that has a liquid ocean. So the gas planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune and the terrestrial planets are the four closest planets, except for Pluto because it is the dwarf planets. Also, it’s weight are way less than our Earth, which Jupiter is the largest planet. And Jupiter is only orbiting 12 of earth year around the sun, but Pluto is 248 of earth years. Then the scientist makes a hypothesis that all the planets may come together in a line on May 6 on 2049, It can be called solar day.
Boot and Toot short story:
Page 1
One day NASA sent a satellite to space with a robot named Boot. Boot’s job was to gather information about all the planets in our solar system. The first stop was Mercury, the closest planet to the Sun. As Boot approached Mercury the temperature raised up about 430 °C because it is only 57.91 million kilometers(km) far from the Sun. Also, The radius of Mercury is 2,440 km and only orbits around the sun about 88 Earth days. So Boot sent this information to NASA with pictures and video. So, Boot, the robot is “happy” and “smiles.” All the main verbs need to be in the past tense if the story is being told in the past. Keep it simple.

“Here! I arrive, Venus,” Just a few minutes more to launch on Venus. This is one of the terrestrial planets like Mercury Earth and Mar too. Then Boot starts to work out where to put the camera and measure the size and temperature. So it radius is 105.2 million km. The temperature is 462 °C. As the distance is further than Mercury, it orbits time is 225 Earth days.
“What should I do, if there is hotter than Mercury now?” ask himself with a worried voice. Then he thinks for ten seconds and figures out that he will put some soil or rock on his body to protect with the wire. “Alright! that was my fabulous work to solve the problem.” Boot smile and fly back to Earth. But he will orbit around Venus half round before launching to NASA station

Boot got to rest, take out all his parts in the body to fix the part that broken. When Boot wakes up he saw his new outfit with a strong one, that can help to walk and stay strong. “I love this” surprise Boot. Then his face back to normal and ask if NASA can build one more rocket to go with him, I feel alone” said Boot, “well, why not? But we need time so you can take this chance to research about our Earth.”Answered NASA.
Boot. got to do this mission on Earth, while he was searching around people follow the question about his mission. Boot stay calm and didn’t say anything to reply because he wants to finish his mission. So the Earth distance is 149.6 million km. The radius is 6,377 km with the temperature of 16 °C and it needs 365 Earth days to orbits around the Sun.
Then Boot comes back with a lot of information and said that Earth has trees and nature that he never saw in his spacewalk before. “So Earth is really unique and beautiful.” wondered Boot “Yes, of course!” NASA reply.

Boot has another mission to spacewalk with Toot, new girl robot. On the way to Mars, it getting colder than Earth, so Toot try to speed up until Mars, Both of them didn’t talk anything to each other yet! because they are shy. Boot shouted “Here! is -55 °C and the distance from the Sun is 227.9 million km.” “I got that Mars orbit time is 687 Earth days and its radius was 3,390 km,” said Toot with a soft voice. All the information that they need is complete. Boot relieved because Toot talked to him, they are a friend now.

Toot was confused the way to go, then Boot got to lead the way. They talk and talks until arriving Jupiter. This is the first gas planet that we had. “So how mäny more are there?” asked Toot “well! there are four more planets to go, but Pluto is a dwarf planet. But we called it in the outer planet.” answered Boot.
After a talk, both of them went to do their work with a smile, but it’s hard because Jupiter is the largest planets in our solar system. The distance from the sun is 778.5 million km and the radius is 69,911 km. It needed 12 Earth years to orbit the Sun, including the temperature range, was -128 °C. SO Boot and Toot had to get the information about the other four, before back to Earth.
Page 6
When Toot and Boot arrived Saturn “the distance is 1.433 billion km from the sun” shouted Toot. “Why you need to yell?” ask Boot. “So I can tell the information first and you get the orbit time and temperature range” explain Toot. “Alright,” yell boot. “The orbit time is 29 Earth years with a temperature of -168 °C. Also, the radius is 58,232 km. The time that they spend in here is faster than Jupiter, so they went to do their mission in Uranus.

On Uranus is full of ice or snow freeze. So BooT and TooT had to walk slowly with their feets. Also, the distance between the sun is 2.877 billion kilometers and the radius 25,362 kilometers. “Okay, I will not blame you for that” Yelled Toot. With the temperature range of -224 °C and it’s needed to orbit about 84 earth years around the sun. Then they continued to Neptune and the distance from the sun is 4.498 billion kilometer with a radius 24,622 km. Also, the time of orbit around the Sun is 165 earth years with a temperature range of -218 °C. So Boot and Toot left Neptune to Pluto, the furthest planets of all.

“Finally, we arrive Pluto, the last planet in our Solar system” Said Boot. Pluto is the dwarf planet and it the smallest planet and it also called the outer planet with the smallest size of all. “So what you got about Pluto Toot.” “Well! I think I get a lot of information than you. I got the distance from the sun, I got the temperature range, I got the radius of it.” “So can you tell the information?” asked Boot “sure the distance from the sun is 39.5 astronomical units, it radius 1,186 km, the temperature range is -240 °C get it?” “wow, I got that Pluto takes 247.7 Earth years to orbit the Sun.” “Wow and now our mission is complete now we going to travel to our Earth,” said Boot “Ok let go!.”
