Gravity

For science we have been learning about gravity and that gravity is the thing that holds us onto earth  

1. is gravity on every planet the same? No not a single planet has the same amount of gravity but some have similar amount of gravity but most either have higher or lower gravity than other

2. How is gravity related to mass? Typically planets with more mass / that are bigger usually have more gravity and smaller planets have less gravity also with earth it has its gravity it mainly comes from its mass.

3. How much would you weigh on different planet? Different planets weight converter

4. How would life be different if you lived on a planets with higher or lower gravity? Life would be much different because if you live on a planet with low gravity you'll have to be more careful of jumping because you might fly into space / you'll be up in the air for longer and with high gravity you'll be pulled towards the ground and it'll be harder to stand up on.

Mars 2020

 For science we have been learning about mars 2020 and the rover called perseverance

Have you ever wondered what mars is made out of? 

On July the 30th NASA sent the rover called perseverance up to mars this was the start of its 7 month trip to mars you might think why’s it going up to mars it going to collect so dirt and rocks to bring back to earth and test it to see if there is or as been any life on mars. 

When perseverance the rover is on mars it will release this drone/helicopter so they can get some photos of what mars looks like once the rover comes back to earth on a rocket they’ll land on this special landing pad the most important thing is that they get the samples back from mars.
