Question that are still left unknown‚ but what they do know is that first off they need to look for planets that are earth like and they also need to have an Jupiter planet which is key because it would protects our earth from the sun.

A meteoroid that is able to survive its passage through the atmosphere‚ is referred to by astronomers as a meteorite (Cain‚ 2009).

It is occupied by numerous irregularly shaped bodies called asteroids or minor planets. The asteroid belt is designated as the main asteroid belt to

He measured how long it took the planets Jupiter and Mars to rotate‚ as well as discovering four moons of Saturn and the gap in the planet’s rings. When NASA launched a satellite to orbit Saturn and its moons in 1997‚ it was fittingly named Cassini. EDMOND HALLEY Halley was

Neptune is similar in composition to Uranus‚ and both have compositions which differ from those of the larger gas giants‚ Jupiter and Saturn. Neptune’s atmosphere‚ while similar to Jupiter’s and Saturn’s in that it is composed primarily of hydrogen and helium‚ along with traces of hydrocarbons and possibly nitrogen‚ contains a higher proportion of "ices" such as water‚ ammonia

telescope for the first time in my life. It was a small device‚ no more than two metres long‚ and yet it let me glimpse a brilliant view of Jupiter: it was the size of a marble‚ magnificently striated in hues of brown‚ red and orange. Then‚ when I was 13‚ I went to the Birla Planetarium in Hyderabad‚ where I revisited my five-year old fascination with Jupiter as I sat spellbound in the arena as a cosmic dance played out in the canvas stretched above my head: stars flew around‚ tumbling in and out

Geometry Puzzles Problem 1 (But first‚ one last logic puzzle). Suppose that you are a prisoner‚ and you are confronted with two doors: one leading to freedom‚ and one leading to the executioner’s chamber‚ but you don’t know which is which. A sentry guards each door. You know that one sentry always lies‚ and one sentry always tells the truth. Again‚ you don’t know which is which. You are allowed to ask one of the sentries one question. What is a question you ask a sentry that will tell you with

Christiaan Huygens was a Dutch scientist and mathematician born in 1629. Huygens was known for his work with early studies of the rings of Saturn and later the discovery of Saturn’s moon Titan. Huygens would grind his own lenses for his telescope and invented what is now known as the Huygenian eyepiece. He was also known for his work as a physicist‚ probabilist‚ and horologist. Placing two plano lenses in a telescope‚ separated by an air gap‚ creates the Huygenian eyepiece. The lenses should

information accumulated with the arrival of the Cassini–Huygens mission in 2004. Formation of Titan The moons of Jupiter and Saturn are thought to have formed through co-accretion‚ a similar process to that believed to have formed the planets in the Solar System. As the young gas giants formed‚ they were surrounded by discs of material that gradually coalesced into moons. However‚ whereas Jupiter possesses four large satellites in highly regular‚ planet-like orbits‚ Titan overwhelmingly dominates Saturn’s

asteroids. These are different chunks of rock‚ which range from specks of dust to those which are a few kilometres across. Most of them travel in an orbit between Mars and Jupiter called the asteroid belt. Others follow different orbits. In the 18th century‚ astronomers were convinced that a missing world existed between Mars and Jupiter. A search was mounted and the first asteroid‚ Ceres‚ was discovered by an Italian astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi in 1801. Today‚ over 5000 have been catalogued. Most asteroids

speaking‚ it does not clear its neighborhood. But that also means that Neptune does not clear its own neighborhood. Mars and Jupiter don’t clear their neighborhoods as they “interfere” with the Asteroids‚ and the Earth actually orbits the Sun with thousands of Asteroids. So the Earth doesn’t clear its own neighborhood either. So if we use the new definition‚ Pluto‚ Neptune‚ Jupiter‚ Mars‚ and the Earth‚ are not planets! Otherwise Pluto fits the definition for a planet; it is from a faulty definition
