1. Apollo Done by JacusPek Le Xuan Yap Kai Herng

2. Planet • A planet is 1.an object orbiting the sun, 2.has enough mass to assume a spherical shape and 3.must be gravitational dominant in its area. A planet that fulfills only the first two conditions is considered a dwarf planet. • The term "planets" derives from the Greek πλανήτης, meaning "wanderer", denoting objects whose position changed relative to the stars.

3. Apollo • The Greek and Roman god of the Sun, music and healing. One of the few Greek gods to retain his Greek name in the Roman era. • Had a twin sister, Artemis, whom which the Moon is attributed to. • Apollo is a God without a planet to his name, but the Sun was attributed to him. That is why we decided to name our planet after him.

4. Our planet. • Named “Apollo” after the Greek and Roman god. Apollo does not have a planet named after him before 15th February but the sun is his representation in the galaxy. • Our planet is named “Apollo” as is the closest planet to the Sun, therefore it is the hottest planet in the solar system, it has a mean surface temperature of about 500K. Highest being 509K and lowest is 498K.

5. Axial Tilt, Orbit, and Rotation • It has minimal axial tilt of about 10 degrees. Meaning it has very minimal temperature fluctuations. • Our planet takes approximately 62.5 days to orbit the Sun. It is 40 million km away from the Sun. It has the fastest orbit among all the planets of the Solar System. • One day on Apollo is 700 Earth hours. You could celebrate 29 birthdays in a day.

6. Size • Apollo is slightly smaller than Mercury. Diameter = 4500km Mass: 60,000,000,000,000,000,000 metric tons

7. Atmosphere • Surrounding Apollo, is a thick layer made up of mostly Carbon Dioxide, but also a small amount of Ozone. • A lot of heat is trapped on the planet, making its average temperature very high. • The air on the planet consists of 30% oxygen, 50% carbon dioxide, and 20% nitrogen.

8. Composition And Appearance of Apollo • Apollo is dark red in colour. • It has a mountainous terrain. Mountains on Apollo can be seen from far as it is a rocky planet, like the Earth. • The core has a radius of 2000km, the mantle is 400km thick, and the crust is 100km thick.

9. Humanity and Apollo • Any human would burn up on Apollo. Its temperature is a lot higher than the temperature range of humans. • Earth’s hottest temperature is about 57.8 degree Celsius compared to Apollo’s 227 degrees Celsius average temperature. • Apollo’s gravity is 2 times as much as Earth’s, making everyone twice as heavy and mobility twice as hard.

10. Discovery of Apollo • The latest planet was discovered on 15th February, 2011. • Apollo was discovered when it was perfectly aligned with Earth and the Sun, casting a shadow on Singapore, darkening the country. • Observatories than focused their telescopes on the calculated position of Apollo and found the planet in orbit around the Sun.

11. Special characteristics Findings and research show that: • The planet has no rings or moons. • The planet is so hot that most matter on it is in liquid state. • The planet is abundant in gold, silver, platinum and precious stones, making it the most ‘expensive’ planet in the solar system. • No spacecraft has visited it yet, as a spacecraft would burn up immediately after passing through its atmosphere. There is no material capable of withstanding the heat of Apollo and the Sun.
