QuestionAnswer
What are we learning? Why are we learning it? ¿Qué estamos aprendiendo? ¿Por qué lo estamos aprendiendo? Space: We can understand our place in the universe and that the force of gravity pulls without contact. Espacio: Podemos comprender nuestro lugar en el universo y que la fuerza de gravedad atrae sin contacto.
universe universo Everything is inside it, EVERYTHING. Universe-Galaxy-Solar System-Planet... Todo está dentro de él, TODO. Universo-Galaxia-Sistema Solar-Planeta...
galaxy galaxia a massive group of STARS, GAS, DUST and other OBJECTS ORBITING STARS in space, held together by gravity. main types: Spiral, Elliptical, Irregular Un grupo enorme de estrellas, gas, polvo y otros objetos que orbitan estrellas en el espacio, mantenidos unidos por la gravedad. Tipos principales: espiral, elíptica e irregular.
Milky Way galaxia de la Vía Láctea our HOME galaxy. Our solar system is located in an outside spiral nuestra galaxia de origen. Nuestro sistema solar se encuentra en un brazo espiral exterior.
solar system sistema solar the planets, asteroids, and comets that orbit a star, as well as the planets’ moons. STAR SYSTEM SOL/SUN/SOLAR los planetas, asteroides y cometas que orbitan una estrella, así como las lunas de los planetas. SISTEMA ESTELAR SOL/SOLAR
star estrella GLOWING GAS BALL-- a giant ball of hot, glowing gases smaller/larger/brighter than others based on distance. All except the Sun are so far away that they look like points of light. BOLA DE GAS INCANDESCENTE: una bola gigante de gases calientes e incandescentes. Parecen más pequeñas, más grandes o más brillantes que otras dependiendo de la distancia. Todas, excepto el Sol, están tan lejos que parecen puntos de luz.
Sun Sol OUR STAR. The star closest to EARTH. It looks like it is the biggest, but is not. Supplies energy in the form of visible light la estrella más cercana a la Tierra. Parece la más grande, pero no lo es. Suministra energía en forma de luz visible.
celestial body cuerpo celeste any natural physical object or entity that exists in outer space cualquier objeto físico o entidad natural que exista en el espacio exterior
planet planeta celestial body that orbits a star and does not produce its own light. Clears its orbit/path Cuerpo celeste que orbita una estrella y no produce su propia luz. Despeja su órbita o trayectoria.
gravity gravedad Force pulls toward core/center. Stronger force can repel/push away La fuerza tira hacia el núcleo o centro. Una fuerza más intensa puede repeler o alejar.
Earth Tierra Our small rocky planet located 3rd in line from our star called the Sun. 3/WE You and me live at planet 3. The 3rd rock from the Sun Nuestro pequeño planeta rocoso, situado en tercer lugar desde nuestra estrella, llamada Sol. La tercera roca desde el Sol.
orbit órbita GOING AROUND---the circular movement of an object, such as a planet or moon, around an object that can hold it in place with gravity, such as a sun or large planet. Larger orbit = Longer Year ÓRBITA: el movimiento circular de un objeto, como un planeta o una luna, alrededor de otro objeto capaz de mantenerlo en su lugar mediante la gravedad, como un sol o un planeta grande. Órbita más grande = año más largo.
revolution alrededor 1 thing going AROUND another. Earth revolves around our star, the Sun. Moons revolve around planets 1 revolution around the Sun= 1 Year= 365 days Una cosa que gira alrededor de otra.
rotation rotación SPINning/turning ON an axis. Ex Rotate a basketball on a finger. 1 rotation = 1 day= 24 hours Girar o rotar sobre un eje. Ej.: Hacer girar un balón de baloncesto sobre un dedo. 1 rotación = 1 día = 24 horas.
asteroid asteroides chunks of rocks in space fragmentos de roca en el espacio
moon luna a large, round piece of rock that revolves/orbits around a planet. (REFLECTS LIGHT DOES NOT MAKE LIGHT) Un fragmento de roca grande y redondo que gira u orbita alrededor de un planeta. (Refleja luz; no produce luz).
comet cometa chunks of rock and ice that orbit the sun leaving trail that looks like a tail. FLYING SNOWBALL WITH TAIL(S) Fragmentos de roca y hielo que orbitan alrededor del Sol y dejan un rastro que parece una cola. Bola de nieve voladora con cola(s).
atmosphere atmósfera layer of gases surrounding a celestial body that is held in place entirely by the body's gravity. Capa de gases que rodea un cuerpo celeste y que se mantiene en su lugar enteramente por la gravedad de dicho cuerpo.
inner planets planetas interiores 4 SMALL ROCKY planets closest orbits to the sun No or few moons Name: 1. Mercury 2. Venus 3. Earth* 4.Mars** (Asteroid Belt) 3/WE 4 planetas rocosos pequeños órbitas más cercanas al Sol Sin lunas o con pocas lunas Nombres: 1. Mercurio 2. Venus 3. Tierra* 4. Marte** (Cinturón de asteroides)
Asteroid Belt Cinturón de asteroides located in-between Mars and Jupiter . It separates the small rocky planets from the gassy giants. Situado entre Marte y Júpiter. Separa los planetas rocosos pequeños de los gigantes gaseosos.
outer planet planeta exterior 1 2 3 4 GASSY GIANTS -- 4 large planets farthest obits from the sun made of ice and gases Many moons Names: . (Asteroid Belt) 5. Jupiter, 6. Saturn, 7. Uranus, 8. Neptune. 1 2 3 4 GIGANTES GASEOSOS -- Los 4 planetas grandes con las órbitas más alejadas del Sol Compuestos de hielo y gases Muchas lunas Nombres: (Cinturón de asteroides) 5. Júpiter, 6. Saturno, 7. Urano, 8. Neptuno. J:25. S:274 U:27 N:14
