What, in this solar system, is the only planetary body around?

Pluto

What is Impact Cratering?

was the dominant process in early history of all planets and planetary bodies (moons, asteroids, etc.) 

Identify the Inner Planets of our Solar System.

Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars

Identify the Outer Planets of our Solar System

Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune

Describe the ground surface of Mercury.

Describe some of the properties of Venus.

Atmosphere - Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

Surface - Very young with little cratering but with volcanic plains, mountain belts, volcanos, and high plateaus.

What surface feature dominates Venus?

Volcanic plains - 80 % of the surface.

Describe Mars.

• Heavily cratered on both hemispheres
• nearly all water is frozen in ice caps or round ice
• Eolian processes are the dominant process affecting the surface
• There's evidence of modification including mass movement, fluvial and eolian processes, volcanic, and tectonic processes

What is the name of one of the largest volcanos, and where can it be found?

Olympus Mons - Mars

Describe the structural highlights of the Earth's moon.

Contains cratered highlands, smooth lower regions, and structural deformation which formed grabens.

Describe the atmosphere and ground surface of Jupiter.

• No solid surface
• Outer layers of gaseous hydrogen and helium

Which of Jupiter's moons are geomorphically active?

Ganymede, Lo, Callista, and Eurpoa

What are the two notable moons of Saturn?

Titan and Tethus

How many moons does Uranus have, and what is their main surface feature?

5 major moons; cratered surfaces of water ice.

Describe Neptune.

• Solid core of water ice and rock
• clouds of methane ice

Describe Neptune's largest moon.

Has evidence of ice caps (of nitrogen), volcanism, and tectonics.

Describe Pluto's Surface.

Solid core of nitrogen ice
