Unit 1 E The Solar System

9. A Year and A Day

The time it takes Earth to orbit once around the sun A year on Earth is 365 days Vocabulary: year The time it takes Earth to orbit once around the sun

The exact amount of time is 365 ¼ days Because of the extra ¼ day 1 day is added to the calendar every 4 years

That year is called leap year February usually has 28 days But in a leap year it has 29 days

So there are 366 days in a leap year All other years have 365 days 2012 will be our next leap year

A year is a different length of time on each planet This is because it takes each planet a different amount of time to orbit the sun

Mercury is much closer to the sun than Earth It takes Mercury only 88 days to travel around the sun So a year on Mercury is 88 days long

Pluto is very far from the sun It takes Pluto a long time to travel once around the sun A year on Pluto is equal to 248 year on Earth

Day and Night

This line is called Earth’s axis An imaginary line goes through Earth from the North Pole to the South Pole This line is called Earth’s axis

Vocabulary axis An imaginary line that goes through the Earth from the North Pole to the South Pole

This spinning movement is called rotation Earth spins on its axis This spinning movement is called rotation

Vocabulary rotation A spinning movement like when Earth rotates on its axis once every 24 hours

Both daytime and nighttime are part of this day Each 24 hours is 1 day Both daytime and nighttime are part of this day

Only on side of Earth faces the sun at any time. This side is having daytime The opposite side of Earth is in darkness.

When it is daytime in North America it is nighttime in India In a 24-hour day each part of Earth moves into the sunlight and back into darkness again

Because Earth spins toward the east, The spinning motion of Earth makes the sun look like it is moving across the sky Because Earth spins toward the east, the sun appears to rise in the east and set in the west

If Earth did not rotate, half of our planet would always have day and half would always have night
