Meet the universe
Across
- 2. large objects that orbit a star but it must be large enough to have enough gravity to force it to a spherical shape and it must be large enough that its gravity has cleared a path of it own
- 3. a icy rock that gives off gas and dust that forms a tail when close to the sun
- 5. energy the mysterious background energy that scientists say is causing universe to expand
- 6. matter an invisible form of matter that does not interact with light or other electromagnetic radiation but exerts gravity force
- 8. very old objects that give off large amounts of energy located at the edge of the universe
- 9. universe all matter, including earth, galaxies and intergalactic space
- 10. ball of shining gas and plasma, mostly made of hydrogen and helium and held together by its own gravity
- 11. a object that orbits the sun but its not able to clear a full path for its orbit
- 12. planets smaller than a planet, orbits the sun but its not able to clear a path for its orbit
Down
- 1. an astronomical object with huge density and gravitational pull so strong that nothing, even light cannot escape it
- 4. a huge collection of gas, dust and billions of stars and their solar systems held together by gravity
- 7. ssmall rocks that float around comets
