La Tierra

La Tierra es el tercer planeta más próximo al Sol, a una distancia de unos 150 millones de kilómetros. La Tierra tarda 365'25 días en dar una vuelta alrededor del Sol y 23'93 horas en completar una revolución sobre sí misma. Tiene un diámetro de 12.756 kilómetros. Nuestra atmósfera está compuesta en un 78% de nitrógeno, 21% oxígeno y 1% de otros constituyentes. Es el único planeta del Sistema Solar que se sabe contiene vida.

El sol

El sol es el elemento más importante en nuestro sistema solar. Es el objeto más grande y contiene aproximadamente el 98% de la masa total del sistema solar. Se requerirían ciento nueve tierrs para completar el disco solar, y su interior podría contener más de 1,3 millones de Tierras. La capa exterior visible del sol se denomina fotosfera y tiene una temperatura de 6.000°C (11,000°F). Esta capa tiene una apariencia manchada debido a las erupciones turbulentas de energía en la superficie.
