Conclusions I can make from this graph:


Uranus has the most number of moons
The Jovian planets have a significant more
number of moons than the Terrestrial
planets.

Conclusions I can make from this graph:

Mercury has most eccentric orbit.

1) Compared to Earth, does Jupiter have a
shorter or longer period of revolution?

2) Compared to the Jovian planets, do the
Terrestrial planets have shorter or longer
periods of rotation?

Create 15 of your own test questions AND
answers on what we have learned so far in this
unit (big bang, universe, galaxies, stars,
planets, etc.).

You may NOT use questions you have seen before. (This is
the easiest way to loose points)
