How was the moon formed.

This is about how the moon was formed, because in school we have been learning about space in science. It was all very quite when suddenly an asteroid the size of mars crashed into Earth. BANG! Some of the Earth  smashed into peaces, however some of it stayed behind. The asteroid slid on the Earth and because it was spinning the gravity turend it in to the moon.

How the universe was formed.

The universe started of like a little dot as small as a pin head. Then it then started to expand and all of the little bits inside the little dot started to clump together which started to make our planets and the sun. This happened because all the little bits were getting gathered up in one place because they were being pulled in by the other bigger bits they all were spinning around in one direction and they formed the planets. the universe is still expanding today and the sun is still trying to pull in the other planets however the other planets are still Strong enough to keep away from getting pulled in sadly one day the sun will take over. But there is time before the sun will take over.

How the moon was formed?

In class 5 at Mersey Vale we have been learning about space. On Wednesday 17th January everyone made a detailed leaflet about the moon. I made a poster instead. Two people got chosen to go to year 2 and share there leaflet  because they were learning about the moon as well!

On Tuesday we saw a video about how the Moon was formed, so I decided to write about this.

About 4.5 billion years ago there was a planet the size of mars that crashed into Earth! Some of the peices of Earth flew in the air, meanwhile the moon started to form with the crushed peices!

bye for now i'll be back soon!

How the Moon was formed!!!

Recently, in our school

year five have been learning about space.

For example, we have

 been learning about the moon,the sun

and also every other planet in our solar system.

The Moon was formed billions and billionsof years ago.

It was formed by

two planets which collided together.

This collision took thousands and thousands

of years to form.

Firstly, a planet, which

was the size of Mars collided into the Earth.

This made the Earth to crash and loose some

of its pieces. However, the rest

was forming into a big, rocky ball which

would be named Moon.

Since thousands of years  the moon was formed.

This is how we have the MOON !!!

How the moon was formed

I am going to explain how the moon was formed. So a long time ago an asteroid the size of mars hit the earth and it caused an absolute massive impact to the ground of earth. Furthermore all the rock sand and bits of scrap were then carried all the way to space. With the scrap in space, later it started to form a big ball. This probably took a billion of years. After that it became earth's moon. That is scientists prediction of how the moon was formed.

How was Earth formed

Scientist believe  that 14 billion years ago the largest planets such as Jupiter was just a small piece of rock.
So when all the planets we're stuck in a hole the planets kept pressure  and we're spinning really fast.
 However keeping speed all of them blew out and started to grow .Scientist called it the Big Bang.
And then they became ENORMOUS!

How the Earth and the Moon was made

Today we are going to tell you all about how the Earth and Moon was made. When a planet, which was the size of Mars, came towards the Earth it all of a sudden collided onto Earth which made our planet fall into pieces. After  that the pieces came together and formed the Earth and our Moon. For over centuries our Earth and Moon have developed there colour. Also the Moon has craters all over it because  lots of asteroid's over the years have crashed onto the Moon.

 Thank you for reading

How The Moon Was Formed!

The Moon was formed when a planet the size of Mars crashed into the Earth. The Earth was just becoming how the Earth looks today. When the two planets collided the debris spread out into space as the Moon was forming the Earth was forming to and that took over millions of years. Therefore the Moon has become what it is today and that is how the Moon was made!

Why we have Day and Night

We have Day because half of the planet is facing the Sun while the rest of the planet is facing away  from the extremely hot  Sun.  The Earth spins on It's axis therefore every part of the Earth gets Day and Night.

From Harish

How Our Moon Was Formed:

Billions of years ago the Moon was formed.
Here it goes...

A young Earth was growing. But a proto-planet the size of Mars was approaching the Earth. It was getting closer and closer and closer until suddenly it collided into the Earth! It was a high impact!

The Earth absorbed a lot of the proto-planet. But what happened to the rest of it...
The rest of it became debris. That debris started forming into a ball because gravity pulled it in making it collect everything that went past it. Soon it started to orbit the Earth.

Would we be able to live without a moon?

We wouldn't be able to live without a Moon because at night time we wouldn't have anything that would absorb the Sun's light so we wouldn't be able to see anything at night.

By Dawud

find out how we get day and night

We get day and night because 50% of the earth is in night, and the other 50% is in the day time.
Do you know why?

I will tell you why. The earth has gravity which causes it to rotate. As the earth rotates half of it has day, but if it does one half turn the day side will have night.

It is the same with the night side. That means the earth`s two halves take turn to have day and night.

How we have day and night

In school recently our topic has been space and today I am going to tell you about how we have day and night. We have night and day because the earth is always rotating.if  the earth did not rotate then we would never have day and night.

 Day time is when half of the earth is facing the sun whereas night time is when the other half  of the earth is facing the other side of the sun.

thanks again from Maheen    

Day and night.

The reason why we have day and night is that  the planet, is plunged in 50%  day and night the sun. Is extremely and deadly hot but the moon isn't warm although it is dark on the moon so the sun, and the moon do the oposite reasons.

Why does saturn have rings?

 

Saturn by nasa photography

 Scientists who study space have ideas but no one actually knows why.

However, we know what there made out of, they are made out of lots of asteroids in Saturn's orbit

My idea of why does Saturn have rings is that asteroids in space constantly flying in space got trapped in Saturn's orbit and that's what I think the answer is.

THE POST OF 2012!!!

   Its twenty twelve and its a brilliant year, were having a space topic and we are going to post some posts by all the children.

It was the start of 2012, but while we were waiting, until then we got a sudden message saying were going to have swimming lessons every Thursday, the pupils were excited.

the 2012 photo was from news.tidefans.com so give them the credit for the amazing photo

Happy New Year/Space Club

Happy New Year to all our blog readers!

We were excited to come back to school yesterday after a relaxing Christmas break, especially because we started a new topic - Space! Over the next few weeks we will be trying to find answers to some of the questions that we wrote last term, such as: how was the universe formed?; why do we have eclipses?; and what is space made of?

After school some of us worked with Mr Farrell in the first meeting of our new 'Space Club'. Although the horrible, wet weather meant that we couldn't go out and use our new telescope outdoors, we still had an interesting time finding out about how different types of telescopes work and talking about some of the things that we might be able to see in the night sky over the next few weeks. 

Thanks, Mr Farrell!
