In astronomy, a planet refers to a body that orbits around a star. In the case of the solar system, which is the system where Earth is located the star around which planets orbit is the Sun, but besides the Earth, there are other seven planets that orbit around it and which are often classified and order according to the distance they had from the Sun. In this way, the first planet is Mercury, because this is the planet that is closer to the Sun, followed by Venus, Earth which is the planet where we lived and Mars all considered as terrestrial planets because all are composed by metal or rocks. Then, there are the gas giants planets Jupiter and Saturn mainly composed by hydrogen and helium and finally the ice planets Uranus and Neptune called ice giants.
