Once upon a time, hundreds of thousands of years ago, the Sun was nothing more than a very large cloud formed by gas and dust and floating in space. The sun was very lonely, I had no friends to talk to.

One day he decided to do something to be able to be accompanied in such an empty space, so he called Mrs. Gravity she was very serious but it helped the dust and gas were united without leaving their cloud.

I tell how the planets were formed

Mrs. Gravedad felt sorry that the Sun was only so she used all her strength so that the dust and the gas would come together more and more and more. So much came together that it started to burn. The sun then became a super flame, huge that gave a lot of light and a lot of heat.

Just at the moment when the sun started to burn, many small stones shot out into the empty space, but so that they would not get too far away, Mrs. Gravity left them floating in the space near the great ball of fire that was now the Sun. That's how they started to turn all these little pieces around, some closer and others farther away.

Years after this happened, the sun was still alone, so Mrs. Gravedad decided to collect little by little all these pieces of stones and they were forming large balls of different colors and sizes. Thus he managed to collect 8 balls and thus the planets were born.

The Sun was very happy and now he only had to name his new friends:

- You who are closest to me as you move very quickly I will call you Mercury. A - To you, so funny, that is behind Mercury and you turn the other way around your brothers I will name you

Venus.- Oh! - He said startled to see the next one full of water and areas of land- I'll call you

Earth .- The next planet I see is smaller than the earth and it is red, you will be

Mars .- To you, that you have some rays and you have several moons I will name you

Jupiter , you are the biggest eh. E - Eh you, the one around, your name will beSaturn

. - Hey, and why are you so inclined? - said the Sun - A comet hit me - the planet responded. Well I will give you a very nice name, you will beUranus

. U - Oh, and you do not stay back there, you're the last, you travel so slowly around the sun that you take 160 years to complete the turn and your color is also blue. Well, your name will be Neptune.

The Sun was radiant with happiness but before letting the planets continue to turn and turn, Mrs. Gravedad warned them: - Do not be afraid, I will be watching and taking care that nothing happens to you. Desde And since thenthe 8 planets revolve around the sun

he is already happy because his friends are always with him in space.
