Vocabulary Surface Pressure (bars or atmospheres) - This is the atmospheric pressure (the weight of the atmosphere per unit area) at the surface of the planet in bars or atmospheres. Length of Day - The average time compared to Earth for the Sun to move from the noon position in the sky at a point on the equator back to the same position.

Mercury  Surface Pressure: 0  Gravity: 3.7  Length of day:  Diameter: 4879 km  Temperature: 167 C

Mercury  Wind Speed: 0  Atmosphere: virtually no atmosphere, however what is there contains hydrogen, oxygen, sodium, potassium and argon.  Water: yes  Other: most iron rich planet in the Solar System

Venus  Surface Pressure: 92  Gravity: 8.9  Length of day:  Diameter: 12,104 km  Temperature : 462 C

Venus  Fastest Wind Speed: 1810 km/h  Atmosphere: mostly of carbon dioxide  Water: very little  Other: Billions of years ago, Venus probably had much more water.

Earth  Surface Pressure: 1  Gravity: 9.8  Length of day: 1  Diameter: 12,756 km  Temperature: 15 C

Earth  Fastest Wind Speed: 371 km/h  Atmosphere: nitrogen and oxygen  Water: yes  Other: contains life
