What are stars? Why do

we only see stars at
night?
 The stars and the sun

Have you ever wondered

what stars are? The  Sun is
also a star, and there are
billions of other stars in the
universe.
 The stars and the sun
A star is a huge The Sun

larger.
 The stars and the sun

Our Sun is not the biggest star and our solar

system is not the only one as well. Other
stars are part of various other solar systems.
 The stars and the sun
Stars give out
light and heat.
Without them,
life wouldn’t
exist.
Some examples of stars
 The stars and the sun
The sun is the star closest to
our planet that is why it
appears bigger and other
stars appear small in the
night sky.
 The stars and the sun

Other stars cannot be seen

during the day time because
of the very bright light from
the sun.
 The stars and the sun
The sun provides heat and
light energy which makes the
earth habitable for living
things. Without the sun, we
will not survive.
 The stars and the sun

The sun is the

largest object
in our solar
system.
 The planets and the solar
system
After the Sun,
the largest
objects in our
solar system
are the planets.
 The planets and the solar
system
A planet is a large heavenly
body that travels around a
star.
A planet does not
give out its own
heat or light, it
depends on
stars.
Earth is a planet.
Our solar system is home to eight
planets including our planet, Earth.
Every planet has unique
characteristics and qualities that
set it apart from the rest.
Planets differ widely in
size, temperature and
other features. Most of
the planets have one or
more moons moving
around them. Jupiter has about 79 moons
 The planets and the solar
system
The Earth has only one moon.
Some planets such as
Mercury and Venus do not
have any moons.
 The planets and the solar
system
In order from closest to the
sun, the planets are; Mercury, 
Venus, Earth, Mars,  Jupiter, 
Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
 The planets and the solar
system
Each planet rotates
on its own axis while
revolving around the
sun in a fixed path
called orbit.
 The planets and the solar
system
The Sun, the planets and their
moons belong to a family of
objects called the solar
system.
 Did you know?
Scientists used to call Pluto the
ninth planet. But in 2006
scientists decided that several
objects in the solar system,
including Pluto, should be called
dwarf planets.

The eight planets in the solar
system are categorized based
on their distance from the sun.
1. Inner planets(close to the
sun)
2. Outer planets( far from the
sun)

of rocks. They are called the
rocky planets
