What does it mean to study Earth and space as a system? What makes
up our Solar System, and how do these parts work together as a whole?
How do the Sun, the Moon, and other planetary bodies interact with
the Earth and affect our everyday lives? In this unit, you'll use
Earth systems science to deepen your understanding of Earth in the
Solar System. To apply your understanding, you'll try your hand
at settling an on-going debate about Pluto and its place in the
Solar System. Enjoy your explorations!
