Label the planets in the solar system worksheet.

Explanation:
This worksheet asks you to label the planets in our solar system, based on their positions along the orbital path shown (a curved line representing the Sun’s gravity holding them in orbit). The planets, in order from the Sun outward, are:

1. Mercury
2. Venus
3. Earth
4. Mars
5. Jupiter
6. Saturn
7. Uranus
8. Neptune

Looking at the diagram:
- The smallest planet closest to the Sun (first dot) is Mercury.
- Next is a slightly larger dot — that’s Venus.
- Then a small dot with a moon-like feature (or just labeled as third) — that’s Earth.
- Next is a reddish-looking small planet — Mars.
- Then a large striped planet with bands — Jupiter.
- After that, a planet with prominent rings — Saturn.
- Then a smaller, bluish-green planet — Uranus.
- Finally, the last small bluish planet — Neptune.

Also, the question at the bottom asks: *“This solar system is in what galaxy?”*
Our solar system is located in the Milky Way Galaxy.

So the labels (from closest to farthest from the Sun) should be:
1. Mercury
2. Venus
3. Earth
4. Mars
5. Jupiter
6. Saturn
7. Uranus
8. Neptune

And the galaxy is: Milky Way.

Final Answer:
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune; Milky Way
