The
Sun
The
Sun
is
at
the
center
of
our
solar
system.
It
is
a
gigantic
star
made
up
of
hot
gases
called
plasma.
The
Sun’s
energy
is
fueled
by
nuclear
fusion
reactions
and
makes
all
life
possible
on
Earth.
The
Earth’s
Moon
The
moon
is
a
dry
and
airless
place.
It
is
the
second
brightest
object
in
the
sky
after
the
Sun.
Its
surface
is
covered
with
pockmarks
created
by
the
impact
of
meteorites.
The
Moon
revolves
around
Earth
and
also
rotates
on
its
own
axis.
It
makes
one
complete
revolution
around
the
Earth
every
27.3
days.
The
Moon
is
in
what
scientists
call
synchronous
rotation.
This
means
that
the
same
side
of
the
Moon
faces
the
Earth
at
all
times.
Earth’s
Seasons
The
Earth
is
simultaneously
spinning
on
its
axis
(rotation)
and
revolving
around
the
Sun.
As
the
Earth
revolves
around
the
Sun,
the
degree
to
which
various
points
on
the
globe
are
pointing
toward
or
away
from
the
Sun
determines
the
seasons
at
those
points.

Phases
of
the
Moon
The
revolution
of
the
moon
around
the
Earth
makes
it
appear
to
look
different
to
us
throughout
the
month.
At
times
we
see
the
entire
moon
and
at
others,
only
a
portion
of
it,
with
the
rest
being
in
shadow.
The
different
appearances
of
the
moon
throughout
the
month
are
known
as
the
moon’s
phases.
When
the
portion
of
the
moon
that
is
lit
by
sunlight
is
getting
larger,
the
moon
is
said
to
be
waxing.
When
that
portion
is
getting
smaller,
it
is
said
to
be
waning.
