  1. A collection of thousands to billions of stars held together by gravity. The galaxy we live in is called the Milky Way.

  3. An icy rock that lets off gas and dust, which may form tails when it is flying close to a sun.
  4. An object, thought to be a rapidly rotating neutron star. It releases short pulses of radio waves and other electromagnetic radiation.
  5. It’s not a year, or an amount of time at all. It’s the distance light travels in one year. It’s the same as 5,878,499,810,000 miles (or 9,460,538,400,000,000 meters). When things are very far away, it’s easier to talk about their distance in light years than millions or billions or trillions of miles.
  6. The star in the center of our solar system.
  7. of Light Light is the fastest thing in the universe. It travels 186,282 miles (299,792,458 meters) every second.

  15. The streak of light caused when a meteoroid enters a planet’s atmosphere and starts to burn from the heat of friction.
  16. Objects that are round and orbit the sun, just like planets do. But unlike planets, dwarf planets are not able to clear their path around the sun. That means there are other objects orbiting at roughly the same distance from the sun. A dwarf planet is much smaller than a planet (smaller even than Earth's moon), but it is not a moon. Pluto is the best known of the dwarf planets.
  17. A place in space where matter and light cannot escape if they fall in.
  18. The stuff that everything is made of. Atoms are a tiny bit of matter. Big planets have lots of matter. Even you are made of matter!
