SOLAR SYSTEM

The solar system is comprised of nine planets, satellites and asteroids orbiting the Sun. The Sun provides the Earth with heat and light.

The planets are out from the Sun in this order: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto.

The hottest planets are closest to the sun, and the coldest are the planets fare away from it.

The Sun is the Earth's star. Planet Earth is actually 150 million Km from the Sun. This star is just a part of our galaxy, the Milky Way.

THE GIANT'S CAUSEWAY

The Giant's Causeway is a lunar landscape in Northern Ireland. It is caused by volcanic eruptions and cooling lava.

The legend says that it is the work of the giant Finn McColl, the Ulster warrior, who was the commander of the King of Ireland's armies. He was fighting against Benn, another giant from Scotland. They were throwing rocks, and the stones built a way between Ireland and Scotland on the water.

The Causeway is a mass of basalt columns. There are 40,000 of these stone columns. Most of them are hexagonal. It is a great place!
