What you can see

Visible reading

The Solar System is the family of worlds that travel around the Sun. Looking at the planets together helps readers compare size, colour, distance, and character in one calm view.

  • The Sun is at the centre of the Solar System.
  • Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are the inner planets.
  • Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are the outer planets.
  • Each planet moves in its own orbit around the Sun.
Why this page matters: This poster works well as a starting page because it lets visitors see the whole family of planets before they open the individual pages.

For the reader

Written out in calm English

This page does more than show a picture. It explains what the visitor is looking at, gives a simple route to the next page, and keeps Home close by. That is important for a live site that needs to feel clear, useful, and complete.

Navigation: You can open the section page, the Home page, or the image loop without losing your place.

Compare groups

Inner and outer planets

The Solar System poster is the best place to start, then move to the planet groups page to compare older inner-planet posters and keep the foundation visible.

Loop support

Present the planets like a slideshow

Use the image loop page or the built-in viewer to move through the planets one by one without leaving the site.

More written explanation

More explanation for Solar System

Solar System now carries more written explanation so the picture is never left on its own. The Solar System is the family of worlds that travel around the Sun. Looking at the planets together helps readers compare size, colour, distance, and character in one calm view. This helps a visitor understand the page before they decide to open the larger image.

On a planet page, the text can point out surface detail, colour, atmosphere, scale, and place in the Solar System. That gives the image a clearer teaching role and makes the page stronger for readers who need more than a quick look.

Because this site is meant to feel complete when it goes live, pages like Solar System now do more work: they show the image, explain the image, keep navigation close, and fit into the bigger structure of the .com project.

  • Open the image larger when you want to study the poster in more detail.
  • Read the explanation before moving on so the image has context.
  • Use the section page to compare this page with other planet pages.
  • Use Home when you want to step back into the full site.
