brainpop solar system transcript

A cross-section of the planet shows that its core is much larger than Earth. For all eleven planets, each ellipse lies entirely within the surrounding ellipse. An image of an astronaut walking on the moon is displayed on the screen, and then an image of a spacecraft against a night sky is added to the right of it. The other shows an even a closer view, in which floating rocks can be seen.

TIM: One of these is a dwarf planet called Eris. The animation zooms in on Mercury. Different sized objects scattered around the Kuiper belt are highlighted in blue and labeled Scattered disc.. TIM: The four outer planets are really far from the sun, so they're much colder. Already have an individual account with Creative Coding? A robot, Moby, wipes the end of the telescope with a dust cloth. But wait, there's more! It is depicted with several large concentric rings. The eight planets in our solar system are satellites of the sun. TIM: But scientists are pretty sure that both of the Voyager probes have passed the termination shock, and are closing in on the heliopause. Another, similar line labeled heliopause is added to the right of the line labeled termination shock, so that the arrow labeled solar wind points right to it. It's got just the right conditions for humans, plants, and animals. The screen is split in half vertically and displays Sedna on the left and Mars, significantly bigger and lighter in color than Sedna, on the right. An animation shows the planet with the questions mark disappearing. TIM: The total amount of planets in our solar system are satellites of the sun that means they travel around it in an orbit. Text reads: The Mysteries of Life with Tim and Moby. TIM: Sure. An animation shows a man, Tim, and a robot, Moby, at a campsite. TIM: The moon is the sixth planet in the sky, next to the sun between Mars and the Earth. TIM: But, you know, there probably wont be any more planets found. An earth-friendly renewable source of energy that comes to us straight from the sun! A diagram shows the terminal shock as an orange circle with the sun and the planets of the solar system, including Earth, in the center of it. Moby thinks and then extends his arms. An animation shows a large grey cloud in a starry sky. Try your hand at computer programming with Creative Coding! But for us, it's the most important one around. TIM: Mars is called the "red planet" because of its reddish surface. The animation shows Moby take a cloth and clean the lens on Tim's telescope. The sun is on the left of the screen, planets and Kuiper belt to the right of it, followed by the scattered disc and the Oort cloud to the far right of the screen. TIM: I know, it's quite a variety of stuff in the solar system, right? The biggest, Titan, is one of the only moons with a thick atmosphere. Like Uranus, it's sometimes called an ice giant because it's so cold. One shows a plain with a hot sun blazing down on it. Two inserts appear showing two different views of the surface. The next planet to the left of it is labeled Neptune.. TIM: Hey Moby, I think I see aliens. TIM: Saturn has more than 50 moons orbiting it. Hearts float above Earth. (, : What can you infer about the temperature on Mars compared to Earth? The animation focuses on the swirling red storm on Jupiter's surface. (, What is something new you hope to learn about the solar system? In the animation, Moby looks up and then looks down. The animation shows Tim and Moby standing with a starry sky in the background. This animated Science resource page with lesson plans and teaching tips, for Kindergarten to 3rd grade students teaches about the Sun, moons, and planets that make up our Solar System. Text reads: The Mysteries of Life with Tim and Moby. TIM: Yup, Pluto is also a Kuiper belt object. Asteroids are pieces of rock centimeters to hundreds of kilometers wide. The camera pans away from the sun. TIM: Well, planetary scientists arent sure whether Sedna is one of the farthest scattered disc objects or part of another region: the Oort cloud. TIM: Neptune is the last gas giant and it has more than a dozen moons. View our, {"synopsis":"How we did we all get here? An animation shows a spacecraft moving away from the camera into outer space until it eventually disappears.

Stop at the following times in the movie and ask questions or prompt a discussion to keep students focused and to assess their understanding before moving on: Timecode 1:12: Why did Earth become an inner planet? A diagram of the solar system is shown. TIM: By the way, Pluto isnt the only dwarf planet. TIM: But other important parts of the solar system are governed by the solar wind, a flow of charged particles produced by the sun. TIM: It also has at least three moons: Charon, Hydra, and Nix! TIM: Most of them are concentrated in the Asteroid Belt, between Mars and Jupiter. TIM: Dear Tim and Moby, can you tell me all about the solar system? TIM: Although it's cold and dry now, scientists think Mars was once much more like Earth. The ellipse representing Plutos orbit is long and narrow and can be seen to intersect the ellipse representing Neptune's orbit. TIM: Comets are totally different than asteroids. TIM: It spins really slowly, just one and a half times for every trip around the sun.

The Oort Cloud is even further from the sun. There are four rocky, inner planetsMercury, Venus, Earth, and Marsand four gas giants farther outJupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. When they get close to the sun, some of their ice forms long, wispy tails that you can sometimes see from Earth! An animation shows Moby sitting next to Tim and looking at him while Tim is talking to him. An animation shows Pluto surrounded by four small moons and one larger one. TIM: The Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud are areas in the far regions of the solar system where small bodies like comets are thought to originate. TIM: Yeah, I guess Earth's my favorite, too. The animation shows a drawing of a circle of rocks around the sun and planets at the top. Venus is almost the same size as Earth; its sometimes called Earth's sister planet. TIM: Thats where the solar wind gets stopped in its tracks by particles from the rest of outer space! An image is divided vertically into three equal parts and shows three round bodies of different colors decreasing in size from left to right. TIM: Over millions of years, gravity drew a lot of this stuff together, into clumps. An image of a dark red planet is shown against a night sky and is labeled Sedna.. Two objects, labeled Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, marked by Upper Xs, move away from the Earth with their paths shown as dotted curves. The rings are a thin layer of millions of chunks of ice and rock. Each is depicted with rings of different sizes. Its dark storm swirls across its surface.

TIM: Sedna, another large scattered disc object, hasnt been fully categorized yet. Stars and other small colored objects are shown. The side closest to the sun glows red, while the other side is covered in ice. Standard and Scientific Notation/Transcript. No one knows exactly why that is, but some scientists think the planet was knocked around during its early days by some other passing body. Outer Solar System is a Science video of BrainPOP aired on May 14, 2002. A curved, orange, vertical line is added along the boundary between the Kuiper belt and the scattered disc and is labeled termination shock.. It looks kind of like our moon, and it has one very hot side and one very cold side. Tim addresses the camera. TIM: Dear Tim and Moby, Is there really such a thing as Planet X? Its atmosphere is filled with carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas. Gravity drew this stuff together into clumps, eventually forming the sun and the surrounding planets. (Set goals). Watch it again, this time using the discussion prompts. The fourth from the sun is Earth, where we live. Try searching your Timeline, or return to the homepage. The camera zooms in on Tim and Moby. Scientists think this stuff has stayed pretty unchanged from the time the solar system first formed about four and a half billion years ago! ","What is in the outer Solar System? BrainPOP recommends reading the movie description that appears on the Solar System Topic Page to your class. TIM: There's no water on Mercury and there's very little atmosphere. The animation shows Moby take a cloth and clean the lens on Tim's telescope. in: BrainPOP Transcripts Outer Solar System/Transcript < Outer Solar System View source Transcript An image shows a night sky and stars through a pair of binoculars. An animation keeps extending the arrow from Neptune until no planets are visible. An animation shows all the lined up planets. Then Neptunes orbit is added and an arrow pointing away from Neptune and the sun is added. It then zooms out to show a big spherical object composed of light colored particles. Tim and Moby discuss the pros and cons. An animation shows a man, Tim, and a robot, Moby, at a campsite. TIM: Well, not really. In the animation, an insert compares Jupiter with some of the other planets. Mars has two moons, Phobos and Deimos. TIM: They launched in the early 1970s and are also thought to be nearing the heliopause. An inset shows a closer look at the ice and rocks that make up the rings. The heliopause is shown as a dark orange semicircle to the left of the termination shock with a bigger radius than the circle that represents the termination shock. All of the parts of the diagram are labeled and a horizontal red arrow labeled gravity goes through the image and points from the Oort cloud to the sun. The sun gets larger and wispy tails appear behind the clump of ice.

TIM: Saturn is another gas giant, with more than 45 moons orbiting it. Far out from the sun is Earth, where we live. It's nearly three times the height of Mount Everest. Standard and Scientific Notation/Transcript. That means they travel around it in an orbit. An animation shows Earth rotating, with the moon orbiting around it. An animation shows the red mountain towering over the smaller Mount Everest. The clump of ice gets closer to the sun. TIM: Pluto has an odd elliptical orbit that sometimes brings it closer to the sun than Neptune. It is depicted with blotches of white and gray regions. ","Is Pluto a planet? At the end of the episode, Moby says he knows what it's like out there and after questioned by Tim, hypnotizes him. TIM: First of all, anything that orbits the sun farther than the planet Neptune is called a trans- Neptunian object. The one on the left shows the Pioneer 10 spacecraft and the one on the right shows the Pioneer 11 spacecraft. Two inserts appear. There are four rocky, inner planets\u2014Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars\u2014and four gas giants farther out\u2014Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. From Sam. .
