This book investigates the solar system, the region of space of which Earth is part. Students will learn about the planets that orbit our sun, their moons, and other features. They'll also get a glimpse into explorations of the solar system and beyond, including human voyages into space. The Solar System also spotlights the comets, asteroids, and meteorites journeying through our "neighborhood," and considers the chances of one hitting Earth.
