Planets
The heavenly bodies that do not twinkle are called planets. Planets do not have light of their own. They get light from the stars. Planets revolve around a star, even as they rotate around themselves.
- Earth is a planet orbiting the Sun with Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. Each planet varies in size, temperature, and composition.
- Some planets, such as Earth, have land and water, while others, such as Jupiter, are mostly composed of gas.
- Planets are important because they are where life, like plants, animals, and humans, can exist.
