How the universe came to be

A long time ago, before there was even life, there was space, and way before that there was not even one planet up in space. Only stars and meteors. One day a meteor hit the largest star in space during it's orbit around the stars. The star was so hot that it turned the meteor red. That is how space formed 3 planets. The red planet was called Mars, the first planet to be formed. The next day or so the meteors took their orbit around the stars, and a meteor struck a star and then the star turned a scarlet color. From that day meteors started chipping away at the planet until it formed rings. This planet was called Saturn. Saturn is a scarlet color. In time, 5 more planets were made. Venus, Uranus, Mercury, Jupiter, and Neptune. That meant there was 2 more planets left to create, Earth and Pluto. To form Earth is very hard because you have to have every single planet. First you need Pluto. In order to form Pluto you need a meteor to hit the smallest star it can find. This was done, and the planet that was made was called Pluto, the black planet. Now it is time to make Earth. The way to form this planet is letting all the planets chip of a piece, and form it into one planet. From this point on, there has always been, and always will be life on Earth.

Continuing my story

Hi, it's me again, Pluto . Did you know I'm 3.7 billion miles from the sun! I was named after Pluto, the ruler of the Under World. I have many special features, one of them is that I'm almost always farthest from the sun. Humph, that is not a reason to bully me. I'm a small rocky planet covered in ice. Nobody cares enough for me to send me any space probes. Well, got to go. It's time for a snack. 1 million rocks coated with ice.

Pluto substance and more

You! You know me, don't you? It's me, Pluto. Oh, continuing my story... the substance I am made of is rock and ice. But no I am not a gas giant. Gas giants do not even exist! " No Pluto, gas giants do exist." Oh, whatever. Well anyways, I have one moon named Charon. I do not have any rings. "He's a rocky planet." Who said I was a rocky planet?!... CHARON!!!!!!! I am the color black, so I am called the BLACK DWARF...... people make fun of me at school. It takes 90520 Earth days to equal 1 year on me or 248 years, and I am 4.2 to 7.5 billion km. away from Earth. Look on the other posts for you to learn more about me.

Introducing Pluto



Hi, i'm Pluto. Okay, a little bit about me. I'm the smallest planet, only 1,454 miles in diameter. I'm the farthest from the sun, and I am considered a 'dwarf planet.' Well, that is better than being a moon, as scientists thought at one time.
I am a freezing little planet, with average temeratures at -375 degrees ferinhight. Can you believe that one day on little Pluto equals 6.4 earth days. Well that's all for now! Little Pluto's got to go!
