Its atmosphere is filled with carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas. TIM: For example, the termination shock is a boundary area where the particles of the solar wind slow way down. "},"game":{"type":"game","instructions":"Code a sorting game to show what you know about the solar system. An image is shown of a gray planet, labeled Eris, against a night sky. The diagram expands to show a third planet and its orbit to the right of the previously shown two planets. That's why the inner planets formed mostly out of rocky material. TIM: The total amount of planets in our solar system are satellites of the sun that means they travel around it in an orbit. An animation shows a man, Tim, and a robot, Moby, at a campsite. TIM: Uranus is a gassy planet with small gray rings and more than 25 moons. Try your hand at computer programming with Creative Coding! TIM: It's huge, with a mass 318 times that of Earth!

Asteroids are pieces of rock centimeters to hundreds of kilometers wide that wander the solar system. TIM: Jupiter is the largest, and one of those gas giants I was mentioning before. The ellipse representing Plutos orbit is long and narrow and can be seen to intersect the ellipse representing Neptune's orbit. That's why one side gets so hot, and the other gets so cold. An animation shows the red mountain towering over the smaller Mount Everest. Tim: Eris is actually the largest dwarf planet in the solar system its just a bit bigger than Pluto! They're called the Galilean Moons, and they're almost like little planets. As each condition is mentioned, four inserts show different parts of Earth: an ocean; buildings amongst trees; people; and animals. Some of them formed hard hunks of rock called the terrestrial planets Earth is one of these. Mars moves out of view and is replaced by a drawing of the Moon.
