Every year, the Earth completes one orbit of the Sun, and every year, you have a birthday! And during a year, the Earth rotates 365 times on its axis and we experience 365 sun rises and sun sets.
The Earth is the planet you (and everyone else) live on! The Moon is a natural satellite of the Earth. This means it travels around our planet in a huge circle called an 'orbit'. The Sun is a star in the centre of our Solar System.
It's the movements of these objects that give us days, years, and even eclipses! Test your knowledge of these astronomical timescales and events.
A solar system consists of a star and the objects that orbit it. A galaxy contains millions of stars and solar systems. But how much do you know about our own Solar System? Take our quiz to find out!
