  1. Apollo Done by JacusPek Le Xuan Yap Kai Herng

  2. Planet • A planet is an object orbiting the sun, has enough mass to assume a spherical shape and most be gravitational dominant in its area. • The term "planets" derives from the Greek πλανήτης, meaning "wanderer", denoting objects whose position changed relative to the stars.

  3. Apollo • The Greek and Roman god of the Sun, music and healing. • A god that retained his Greek name in Roman times. • Apollo is a God without a planet to his name, but the Sun was attributed to him

  4. Our planet. • Named “Apollo” after the Greek and Roman god. Apollo does not have a planet named after him but the sun is his representation in the galaxy . • It is the closest planet to the Sun, therefore it is the hottest planet in the solar system, it has a mean surface temperature of about 500K. Highest being 509K and lowest is 498K • It has minimal axial tilt of about 10 degrees. Meaning it has very minimal temperature fluctuations.

  5. Size • It’s size is about slightly larger than Earth. Diameter = 13,000km Circumference= 40,500km Mass: 6,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 metric tons Surface: 525,000,000 sq km

  6. Humanity and Apollo • Any human would burn up on Apollo. Its temperature is a lot higher than the temperature range of humans. • Earth’s hottest temperature is about 57.8 degree Celsius compared to Apollo’s 227 degrees Celsius average temperature. • Apollo’s gravity is 2 times as much as Earth’s, making everyone twice as heavy and mobility twice as hard.

  7. Discovery of Apollo • The latest planet to be discovered on 15th February, 2011. • Apollo was discovery when it was perfectly aligned with Earth and the Sun, casting a shadow on Singapore, darkening the country.

  8. Special characteristics • The planet has no rings. • The planet is so hot that most matter on it is in liquid state. • The planet is abundant in gold, silver, platinum and precious stones, making it the most ‘expensive’ planet in the solar system.

  9. Atmosphere • Made mostly of Carbon Dioxide, trapping heat in the planet.
