The document summarizes the key properties and scale of the solar system. It outlines that the orbits of the planets are nearly circular, in the same plane, and in the same direction as the sun's rotation. It also notes that the distances between planets follow Bode's Law. The second half details the distances, diameters, and orbital speeds of each planet from the sun, including Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and the dwarf planet Pluto.

1. THE PROPERTIES AND SCALE OF THE SOLAR
SYSTEM

2. PROPERTIES OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM
1.The orbits of all the planets are
almost in the same plane. This
means that the solar system is
flat.
2.The planetary orbits are nearly
circular. The elliptical orbits
depart only slightly from being a
perfect circle

3. PROPERTIES OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM
3.The orbits of the planets are
nearly in the same plane as the
rotation of the Sun.
4.The planets rotate in the same
direction as they revolve around the
Sun, with the exception of Venus
and Uranus.

4. PROPERTIES OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM
5. The distances of the planets from the Sun can be expressed in a simple
relationship called Bode’s Law named after the German Astronomer JOHANN
BODE.

5. PROPERTIES OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM
6. The satellites systems of
Jupiter(with 16 moons) and
Saturn(with 18 moons) are nearly
identical in their arrangements with
the solar system. The distances of the
satellites from the planets follow
BODE’S LAW.

6. PROPERTIES OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM
7.The satellites and planets
contain almost all the rotational
motions of the solar system.
