Outer Solar System is a Science video of BrainPOP aired on May 14, 2002. TIM: Uranus is a gassy planet with small gray rings and more than 25 moons. TIM: But other important parts of the solar system are governed by the solar wind, a flow of charged particles produced by the sun. TIM: It spins really slowly, just one and a half times for every trip around the sun. TIM: The four outer planets are really far from the sun, so they're much colder. The sun gets larger and wispy tails appear behind the clump of ice. An animation shows the four outer planets, then zooms in to show Jupiter encircled by a narrow ring. An animation shows the sun, then pulls back to show the eight planets orbiting around it. Astronomers believe that more than 4.5 billion years ago, an exploding star created a huge cloud of gas and dust.

TIM: First of all, anything that orbits the sun farther than the planet Neptune is called a trans- Neptunian object. Searching.. educators resources search ELL topics. Tim is looking at the night sky through a telescope. TIM: I know, it's quite a variety of stuff in the solar system, right? An animation shows a cloud of dust and debris circling the sun. An animation shows the planet with the questions mark disappearing. The animation zooms out to show a large proportion of the rocks form a circle around the sun and lie between Mars and Jupiter. Tim addresses the camera. They're called the Galilean Moons, and they're almost like little planets. TIM: I know. TIM: Today, people just use the term Planet X to mean some undiscovered major planet of the solar system. TIM: Well, the sun is at the center of our solar system.

TIM: Well, planetary scientists arent sure whether Sedna is one of the farthest scattered disc objects or part of another region: the Oort cloud. TIM: Bubut their hypothesis was based on faulty calculations of Neptunes mass! An animation first shows the sun, the planets, the Kuiper belt, and the scattered disc objects. TIM: It also has a permanent storm on its surface called the Great Red Spot, which is way bigger than the entire Earth! TIM: The four inner planets are much smaller than the four outer ones. Gravity drew this stuff together into clumps, eventually forming the sun and the surrounding planets. For best experience, access this project full size. Birds fly in the sky. (Predict), What is something new you hope to learn about the solar system? Tim addresses Moby while turning his head to look at him. Venus is sometimes called Earths sister planet, because of the similar size. The biggest was in the center, and everything else began to spin around it. TIM: Right, the solar system isn't just planets and the sun there are lots of smaller bodies floating out there, too.

"},"game":{"type":"game","instructions":"Code a sorting game to show what you know about the solar system. An animation shows the pale yellow planet encircled by large rings. In the animation, the view changes to the planets circling the sun. TIM: Mars is called the "red planet" because of its reddish surface. When they get close to the sun, some of their ice forms long, wispy tails that you can sometimes see from Earth! Tim goes on to explain about space beyond Neptune, as well as some space probes and planets. In the animation, Venus moves out of view and is replaced by a drawing of Earth. TIM: That means it traps the sun's heat. The animation shows a close-up of the sun. TIM: But there are tons of other objects that keep popping up in the far regions of the solar system!

Theres a stormy Great Dark Spot on Neptune thats kind of like the Great Red Spot on Jupiter. Tim is wearing a T-shirt with a drawing of planets in the center. Well, the solar system is our home in the galaxy. An animation shows gas suspended in the starry universe. Two objects, labeled Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, marked by Upper Xs, move away from the Earth with their paths shown as dotted curves. TIM: Then there's the last one Pluto, a cold, rocky body even smaller than our own moon. A diagram of the solar system is shown. The animation shows a close-up of the central clump which explodes and catches fire. Another view shows clumps spinning around a large central clump. TIM: Its been really hard to keep track of these guys, since the signals they emit are so weak and so far away now! An animation shows the blue-green planet with its tilted rings. The side closest to the sun glows red, while the other side is covered in ice. TIM: For a while, Pluto was thought to be the missing planet. TIM: Oh, the things I mentioned are all governed by the suns gravity, which stretches half way to the next star system! "},"story":{"type":"story","instructions":"Code a conversation to show what you know about the solar system. The camera zooms in on Tim and Moby. It's got just the right conditions for humans, plants, and animals. An animation keeps extending the arrow from Neptune until no planets are visible. ","Is Pluto a planet? It started out four and a half billion years ago, as a big cloud of gas and dust out in space, mostly hydrogen and helium. (, : Why might the outer planets have many more moons orbiting them than the inner planets? Standard and Scientific Notation/Transcript. It is depicted with several large concentric rings. TIM: Pluto has an odd elliptical orbit that sometimes brings it closer to the sun than Neptune. TIM: Earth is one of these terrestrial planets. No one knows exactly why that is, but some scientists think the planet was knocked around during its early days by some other passing body. TIM: You you know what its like out there? It is depicted as a blue-green sphere with a small white vertical ring. The surface of Venus can get close to 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit. All rights reserved. Text reads: Oort cloud. Some of them formed hard hunks of rock called the terrestrial planets Earth is one of these. The last planet shown and its orbit are labeled Planet Upper X. It was considered the main planet until 2006 when it got demoted to a dwarf planet. In the animation, Mercury moves off and is replaced by a view of Venus. The arrow labeled gravity is removed and another, yellow horizontal arrow pointing from the sun extending to the middle of the scattered disc and labeled solar wind is added. The clump of ice gets closer to the sun.

TIM: Others became big balls of mostly gas called gas giants, like Jupiter. Text at the top right reads: dwarf planet. TIM: Saturn is another gas giant, with more than 45 moons orbiting it. Others include Ceres, the largest object in the Asteroid Belt, and an object named Eris, which is slightly larger than Pluto. It likely had oceans and rivers, and its atmosphere contained more heat-trapping gases. Mercury is the closest to the sun, and it looks kind of like our moon. Two inserts appear. One shows a close-up of the concentric rings. TIM: For example, the termination shock is a boundary area where the particles of the solar wind slow way down. An animation shows the dry, rocky surface of Mars transition to a lake. Another yellow arrow labeled interstellar wind is added to extend from the Oort cloud to the line labeled heliopause..
