All Summer in a Day supports this theme by Margot wanting to see the sun so bad but the sun only comes out once every seven years on Venus. Margot is willing to live just to see the sun again because when the sun isn’t out it’s just rain and rain

The short story All Summer In A Day by Ray Bradbury is about a long anticipated event that would later be disturbed by cruelness of another.

surface is the fact that it looks wrinkled: this is due to the cooling of the planet’s iron core which led to the surface contracting. Mercury lost a third of its radius during this process (was reduced from 1.8 to 1.2 miles). Named “Scarps” by scientists, the wrinkles can be up to one mile high, and stretch over numerous miles. Another particularity of Mercury is that it is covered in craters, making it the most cratered planet in the entire Solar System. All of these craters strongly vary in

Well, the metaphor might not wholly be apparent, but in my head, I envision the smelly cat being a patient. At face value, you see a sick organism, but when you deprive it from its putrid smell, you find that it’s an organism

music form. After listening to the songs I was impressed by how the artist personified each planet giving every planet a different tempo, instrument combination, and rhythm. My favorite songs were Mars and Mercury because Mars has faster tempo with strong horn and percussion sections and Mercury has an uplifting pace and pleasant string instruments. When I started listening to Mars I visualized an inter-galactic battle taking place with the song playing in the background. I didn't like Venus or Saturn
