    Dolomite {uranus_true_and_false.jpg} Dolomite
    An important sedimentary and metamorphic mineral, found as the principal mineral in dolostones and metadolostones, and as an important mineral in limestones and marbles where calcite is the principal mineral present. Also found as a hydrothermal vein mineral, forming crystals in cavities; and found in serpentinites and similar rocks.
    Luster- non-metallic (pearly and brilliant luster)

    Its location relative to the sun is 46 to 70 million kilometers.
    Mercury was named for it's speed.It is the fastest moving plant in our solar system.It was named after the roman winged messenger.

    its thin becasue the gases that were there got all boiled by the sun.The thin air does not trap heat very well.
    Mercury rotates th sun in only 88 days.

    2. Atmosphere- The first two layers of Neptune's atmosphere is composed of a mixture of molten rock,water,liquid ammonia and methane.
    The third outer layer is a mixture of heated gases comprised of hydrogen,helium,water and methane. That gives Neptune its blue cloud color.

    Saturn is made of molecular hydrogen but when we go deeper into the planet it turns out to be a hot gas.
    saturn would float in a bathtub of water because saturn has less dencity then water dose.
    saturn has sixfive moons around
    just like all the other planets saturn is named after the romans, this roman was named afte the god of agriculture
    from a distance saturn looks like jupiter, saturn has lots of clouds surrounding it,there pale orange and its orange because saturn has alot of sulfur.

    the atmoshpere is very thin, and its made out of sodium.
    its thin becasue the gases that were there got all boiled by the sun.The thin air does not trap heat very well.
    Mercury rotates th sun in only 88 days.
    During the night it is 300 degrees.
    In 2011 the spacecraft messanger will go to study it.
    A year on mercury is 88 days long.
    Mercury can only be seen just after the sun and has rises, amd when the sun sets.
    Its 100 times closer to the sun the pluto.
    There is no weather on mercury.
    Mercury is dry, and amost airless.
    Theres no life on mercury.
    Mercury magnetic feild is slight.
    Mercury barley has am atmoshpere and does have glaciers.
    Mercury has an magnetic feild.
    The magnetic feild is only one percent as strong as earths.

    Formation of the planets, while the sun was forming in the center of the solar nebula planets were forming in the outer regions. Small bodies from which a planet orginated in the early stages of formation of the solar system are called planets. Some planets joined together through collisions and through the force of gravity to form larger bodies called protoplanets. These planets collided with the protoplanets and added masses to the Protoplanets. Eventually, the protoplanets became very large and condense to form planets and moons.
    Formation of Inner planets the features of a newly formed planet depended on the distance between the protoplanet and developing sun. the far protoplanets closets to the sun became mercury venus earth and mars. They contained large percentages of heavy elements, such as iron and nickel. These planets lost their less dense gases because at the tempature of the gases gravity was not strange enough to hold gases.
    ...
    Formation of the Earth's oceans.Icy bodies such as comets collided with the Earth, water from these bodies then became part of the Earth's atmosphere.As the Earth cooled water vapor condensed to form rain. this liquid collected on the earths surface.
    Early models of the S.S. 2,000 years ago a greek philosphere Aristotle an earth centered or geocentric modelof the solar system. In this model the sun the stars and planets revolved around the earth.
