P3 Solar System Measuring
29th Apr 2026
P3 conducted an experiment, using toilet roll paper as a measuring device, to create a scaled version of the solar system to see how far each planet is from the sun. We were able to work out why Mercury and Venus are so hot and why Uranus and Neptune are so cold.
