1 Mars â Sometimes called the red planet and the brother of Earth. 2  Mars is the closest planet to the Earth. 3  Jupiter â The largest planet in the Solar System. 4  Saturn â Sixth planet from the Sun.
1 When talking about a general direction, the word is often not capitalised, example: the north side of the house. 2  Place names are capitalised: East Sussex, West Virginia, South Africa.  In other cases, adjectives and nouns normally begin with small letters: Go south for three miles, then go east for another three miles.
Here are two situations that confuse people about whether they should capitalize: 1) The seasons: Ordinarily, do not capitalize seasons. For instance, âIt will be spring in a few days.â However, if you need to document which particular spring, do capitalize the season: âYour next evaluation will be in Spring 2015.â. 2) Directions vs. geographical areas: The latter are capitalized.
