All of your answer is correct! 5. How many hours do the Earth
Let us give them a wow clap! rotates on its axis?

Is there any question regarding Earth Rotation

and revolution?
None sir.
I am glad you really understood our past lesson.

and Halley’s. Comet.
All orbits were far from each other. Each planets never
banged each other.
The planet that collected most amount of light without leaving
his orbit would be the winner of the game. All planets loved
the idea and decided to play it every day.

One day all planets noticed a beautiful objects with a shiny tail
comes towards the orbit assigned to one of the planets.

Amazed by the beauty of this object a planet went close to ask

“Who might you be?

The beautiful object replied “ Iam a comet and I known to

everyone as the Halley’s comet” I came here to play the game
capture the light with all of you.”

Would you please let me join you?

Meanwhile, Some of the planets started discussing, “ What if

the comet cheats!”

Why is this tailed object coming our part of the Milky Way
Galaxy?

Why can’t this comet go play with her own family. The comet
doesn’t have an orbit, she might bang with us, and hurt us!”

One of the planets interrupted and said “ let’s assigned this

comet a new orbit that over laps our orbits.”

All planets have to make sure that they don’t bang with the
Comet while trying to capture the light.

Yes, the game will be more challenging and it will be fun to

have a new friend join our game.” Said another planet. After
all discussion, all planets finally agreed to let the comit play
with them.

Jupiter came forth and drew a new orbit around the sun for the
Halley’s comit to start playing the game. He explained the
rules of the game capture the light to the halley’s comet.
Everyone went back on their position to start the game. While
travelling on the orbit assigned to the comit, she made a very
good friends with all the planets. Starting with the planet that
is closest to the sun, the comet met,
 Mercury- the smallest planets of the solar family

Venus- the hottest planet

Then the comet met; Earth which is only planet that has life.
Mars- the red planet. Jupiter- the biggest of all planet. The
comet was introduced to; Saturn the planet with the beautiful
rings. Uranus the lazy one and always lying down. Neptune,
which is the coolest planet of all

After playing the game for many days, it was time for the
comet to go back home. She thanked everyone for allowing
her to play the game of Capture the light. Even today, the
comet visits solar family every once in a while to play the fun
game of capture the light.

Who are my friends?
