My OMG Facts: Five Planets closest to the Sun (page 2 of 2)




Earth(The Earth Wiki? Try this new article about Earth!)
      Earth is the 3rd planet from the Sun and the densest of the eight planets in the Solar System. Home to millions of live organic species including humans, Earth is currently the most populated astronomical body in the solar system. About 71% of the surface is covered with salt water oceans; the rest is land and garbage.
       The diameter of Earth is 12,756 km and the Earth rotation spins at 24 hours per day (OMG! I never knew that!). If you can compute the our planet's circumference and speed of rotation, I bet you can make your teacher say "OMG" too! Especially if you're computing while not wearing anything...  





Venus(The Venus Wiki? Try this new article about Venus!)
      Venus is the 2nd planet from the Sun with size and gravity nearly similar to Earth. The atmosphere of Venus consist of an opaque layer of sulfuric acid cloud and its surface is mostly covered with volcanoes and lava, making it a bad picnic destination.
      





Mercury(The Mercury Wiki? Try this new article about Mercury!)
      Mercury is the nearest planet from the sun and smallest planet in the Solar System. It has a rocky body which consists of approximately 70% metallic and 30% silicate material.
      When the nerdy scientists from NASA are asked what can we benefit from this planet in the near future, most of them responded; "production of robots with b00b implants". No wonder they are very eager to mine this planet for its resources.

I would like to apologize to all fans of Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, my blog is only about the top 5 planets. And to all Pluto fans… I really don’t want to discriminate but please accept the fact Pluto is not a planet and you don’t belong here.
