This educational wall chart explains the inner planets of the Solar System and how they differ from the outer planets. It introduces the division of the eight planets into two groups separated by the asteroid belt and identifies the inner planets as Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. These planets are described as rocky or terrestrial planets due to their solid surfaces and internal structures.

The upper section provides a clear visual comparison of the inner and outer planets, showing their positions relative to the Sun and the asteroid belt. Detailed panels focus on each inner planet individually, presenting Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars with labelled images and factual data. Each planet section includes information such as diameter, distance from the Sun, length of day, length of year, mass relative to Earth, and number of moons.

Additional sections explore surface features, atmospheres, and unique characteristics of each planet. Diagrams show the orbits of the planets and detailed cross section illustrations explain the internal structure of each planet, including crust, mantle, and core layers. Earth specific sections highlight the atmosphere and the Moon, while Mars sections include major surface features and its moons.

This wall chart supports astronomy and space science education by combining visual comparison with scientific reference material. It also works effectively as a poster for classrooms, science laboratories, and astronomy learning environments.

Our wallcharts are engineered for durability and educational impact, designed to withstand the rigors of both classroom and home environments.
