Gravity
Hello everyone,
Today's blog is about how Gravity works in space,
1. Is gravity the same on all planets, No gravity is not the same on all planets because it all the planets have different sizes so that means the bigger the planet the stronger the gravity.
2. How is gravity related to mass, Gravity is related to mass because the bigger object witch has more mass inside means the stronger the gravity inside.
3. Calculate your weight on the other planets in our solar system, pretend my weight is 20 kg then I went to Mars that means I would weigh 7.6! Jupiter has stronger gravity because its a bigger planet than Mars and Mercury thats why you would weigh more than Mars and Mercury. Because the bigger the planet the more mass it has the more mass the stronger gravity and stronger the gravity the weight it can hold.
4. How would your life be different if you lived on a planet with higher gravity? With lower gravity? I think I would like to live with lower gravity because I could jump around everywhere and it would be easier then just walk to get like a drink or something.
Here is the site for the planet weight.
Hope you enjoyed this blog post if you did leave a comment, Bye!

Navigation from stars
Navigation from the Stars
Hello everyone, today
I am going to talk about navigation from space and how to use the stars to navigate So here is the writing I have done---
1. Ursa Major is a northern star to direct yourself if you are in in the northern hemisphere I am in the southern hemisphere so I would use the southern cross star
2. The Crux star mostly called the southern cross, The Crux is the most important star to use for southern navigation and can direct you if you are in the southern hemisphere. Its most commonly used if people don’t have navigation or any type of directions it was used in the late 1800s, when people were on horse’s and getting around everywhere
3. The Orion star is also called the hunter star, because it looks like someone as a hunter is holding a bow back ready to shoot something, The Orion star is a Northern star and is one of the most easily star to been seen in the northern sky because there is so many of them. Orion has served as a guide for navigators for centuries.
