Dawnie+Neptune

Neptune is one of the 8 planets that circle around the Sun in the 'Solar System'. The word 'Solar' comes from the Latin word 'Sol' meaning Sun. Therefore the name 'Solaris' is equal to 'Solar System' Neptune lies 4 504 000 000 kilometres from the Sun (2 796 000 000)

Neptune is one of the 4 outer Gas Giants and smallest of them all. They are called Gas Giants because they are, of course, giants and they are made of gas.

How big is Mercury? Size is normally referred to diameter, mass and sometimes volume :
 * Mercury is 102 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 kg
 * Diameter: approx. 49 500 km

Axis and Rotation:

Neptune's axis is tilted on a 30 Degree angle. Earth rotates once in 24 hours, but Neptune rotates on its axis once every 16.11 Earth hours, which is a very fast spin for such a large planet. This is calculated by the pulses that Neptune gives off. Radio signals are what astromers call them. They work out the rotation by the Radio Signals. Neptune also, like every other planet in the Solar System, has an orbit. An orbit is a curved path of an object, travelling around another larger heavenly body. __Neptune orbits the Sun in 165 Earth years.__
