Maidee was exhausted when she entered her room, but otherwise good. This should be a decent class....even with the issues from before. Sigh. What would she have to do to get good students? | |

Whaaat? They were starting? She was totally blanking on the question. Think think think....
"They are made up of rocks, dust, stuff floating around in space. Also including ice and gas." she said after raising her hand. Good enough answer. She was happy they were finally starting, but now she was just worried that she might not stay awake for the entire thing.

Ooohh, Marie knew this one. "Comets are made of small irregularly shaped bodies that are a mixtre of non-volatile grains and gases. They are also very fragile," She said after raising her hand.

"Comets are mostly made of ice. The ice is composed of water ice as well as carbon dioxide ice which is also called 'dry ice' and several other types of ice. The comet is also made of rock. It is in the form of small dust or sand grains. The comet also has small amounts of carbon based or organic compounds. They are similar to soot. All this material makes up what is called the comet's nucleus. Comets are often called dirty snowballs because of what they are made of." | |

Eh, long answer. Something she was not capable of at the moment. Mwaha!
"There are the terrestrial planets which are basically your rocky planets, and then there are the gaseous planets, which is pretty much self explanatory there..."

Tiberius raised his hand again, hoping that this time his answer would be correct. "The two types are terrestrial and Jovian. The Earth-like or "terrestrial" planets - Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars - are small and rocky. The gas planets or "Jovian" planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune."

Raising her hand, the Hufflepuff chirped, "Soft and hard, professor! Like, earth is all hard, like my desk," Wesley slapped her hand on the desk to illustrate this, "And then Jupiter is all soft because it's made of gas!" Flapping her same hand, now slightly red in the air, to show how it wasn't like her desk, she smiled, flashing a set of almost-white, slightly crooked teeth for the whole world to see.

Marie raised her hand, "One of them would be Gaseous, these planets are made up mostly of gases. Examples of these planets would be jupiter, saturn, neptune and uranus. The other type is Terrestrial which is the opposite of gaseous. Terrestrial planets have a solid surface and a thin atmosphere where its gases reside. Examples of these planets would be mercury, mars, earth." | |

"The planets are named after people in Greek (Roman) mythology, who was Jupiter?"

"Jupiter's would be Zeus, Professor." She said after raising her hand. She was actually quite interesting in Greek mythology...like she would tell anyone that. Pfft. Would totally ruin her way of life.

Marie raised her hand, "Jupiter was named after Zeus."
She wasn't sure why she even answered since everyone was already shouting out the answers.

"Mercury is Hermes, the messenger of the gods." she said, raising her hand again. Mythology. Weird, yet interesting.

Mercury is the Roman messenger and god of trade, profit and commerce. He is the son of Jupiter and Maia Maiestas in Roman Mythology. Mercury is Hermes in Greek mythology.

Cedric raised his hand briskly, "Mercury or Hermes is the messenger of gods and is also the god of trade, profit and commerce. He's the god that Zeus often sends to the mortal world to deliver dreams or to to travel with a mortal to keep him or her safe and in a good condition."

Ooohh, Vashti loved these questions! She absolutely loved Greek and Roman mythology! "The planet Mercury is named for the Roman god of the same name. He's also a Greek god named Hermes, who was the messenger of the gods and the god of commerce, thieves, travelers, sports, and border crossings."
