                          We mentioned earlier that planets are
                                                                              Pluto
                    the celestial bodies that rotate around the stars.

                    In this section, we are going to examine the planets in

                    the solar system our Earth is located in. If we assume

                    the Solar System to be a circle, the Sun is right at the

                    centre of it.

                          Pluto is the planet on the outermost circle. Pluto

                    is the smallest and farthest planet from the

                    sun. Observation of this planet is hard, and
                    even the Hubble telescope can only show

                    some rough details of its surface. This plan-

                    et is quite a cold place. The temperature is
