West to EastWhat did Copernicus believe about the system of planets?

Found evidence for the idea of a heliocentric system.Said that the moon revolved around the earth.The earth revolved around the sun to cause a year.

What did Brahe and Kepler prove?

Brahe: First to predict that orbits were not circular.Kepler: Assistant, He used Tychos data to figure out that the planets orbits are not round but are ellipses.

What discoveries did Galileo make that supported Copernicus views of the solar system? And what did he use to make these discoveries?

One of the first to turn the Telescope to the sky to study astronomy.Saw that Venus went through phases like the moon indicating change in angle like moon phases.

What two forces keep the planets in orbit around the sun?

Inertia &Gravity List the planets in order from the sun out.

MercuryVenus Earth Mars Jupiter SaturnUranus Neptune What do the first 4 inner planets have in common

They are small, and have rocky surfaces

Not as much Hydrogen and Helium because they are closest to the sun.Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars What do the first 4 outer planets have in common

Gas Giants They are much larger than Earth and do not have solid surfaces.The gas cant escape because these planets have very STRONG GRAVITYJupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune

What makes Earth unique and different from the other planets?Liquid water.

A protective atmosphere.

How are Venus and Earth alike?

Relatively the same size and density

Comets orbits are what shape?Comets orbits are long, narrow ellipses.
