1. (10 pts) Manually draw the layout and patterns of motion of the solar system. Please include the Sun

and all planets.

Draw the orbits of all planets around the Sun (2 pts)

Label the orbit direction and spin direction of all planets. Label the spin direction of the Sun. (2

pts)

Label the planets' average orbital distances from the Sun in AU and their orbital periods in Earth

years (2 pts)

Label the size of the Sun and each planet as compared to Earth's radius (e.g. 0.5 Earth radius, 2

Earth radii,...) (2 pts)

Point out the exceptions to the patterns of motion (2 pts).

(The sizes and distances do not need to be drawn to scale, which is impossible to do on letter sized paper

anyway.)
