Astronomy Answers AstronomyAnswerBook: Planets This page answers questions about planets . The questions are: What is the distance between all planets? Do you have a picture of the orbits of the planets? What is the inclination of the orbit of Saturn and the other planets, relative to the ecliptic? Why does weather usually travel to the west along the equator but to the east between the equator and the poles? ... Which planet is closest to the Sun? The Solar System Page also contains information about the planets (that are part of the Solar System Specific planets Venus Earth Mars ... Planets in General Weather on Planets At certain latitudes , clouds and the weather tend to move to the east, but at other latitudes they tend to move to the west. Heat travels on average from hotter areas to colder areas. The equator is hotter than the poles , so, on average, hotter air travels from the equatorial region to the poles, and colder air travels from the poles to the equatorial region, so there is a north-south component to the prevailing winds. Planets rotate around their axis, which generates Coriolis forces that make air traveling north or south deviate from its straight course. This causes the motion of the air (and the weather) to have an east-west component as well.

Astronomical Journal Subject Headings Authors should select subject headings for their manuscripts using the list given below. No more than six headings should be given (and if headings are used for individual stars, galaxies, etc., each object normally counts as one heading). The overall categories (which are capitalized) should not be included. Also, do not include any part of a heading that is in parentheses: thus, (stars:) binaries (including multiple): close should be given as binaries: close. The headings should appear following the abstract, in alphabetical order, each separated by an "em" dash, or by - as in the following example: Subject headings: Cepheids - galaxies: distances and redshifts - galaxies: individual (M100, NGC 4321) - stars: early type Headings such as galaxies: individual (..., ...) should include the individual names in parentheses, as indicated above. apj@as.arizona.edu Note that in AASTeX, the text command for subject headings must be placed after the command and not before it.

About halfway up the sky you'll see the planet Mars. It looks like an intense red star, the brightest light in the midnight sky other than the Moon. Here's the amazing part: Between now and the end of October, Mars, already so bright, will double in brightness again. Imagine that. Mars is getting brighter for the simple reason that it's getting closer. Earth and Mars have been converging for months and on Oct. 30th at 0319 Universal Time, the two worlds will be just 69 million kilometers apart the closest approach of Mars and Earth for the next 13 years.

Founded 1921 Ursa English pages Solar System General Info ... Pluto Information about the Model Structure The model of the Sun is a ball 140cm in diameter and made out of steel tubes which has been placed atop a 20m tall pillar at the Patterimäki of Pajamäki. Because of this, the model rises over 50m above sea level and is therefore visible (at least if using binoculars) to even the most distant planet models. The four closest planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, range in diameter from 5mm to 13mm and are within a little more than 200m from the model of the Sun. The Earth and the Moon are within 150m of the model of the Sun. The diameter of the Earth is 13mm and 38cm away from it is the Moon. Jupiter is the largest of the planets and its model is 14cm in diameter. It is located at Talinhuippu, 817m away from the Sun and near the horseracing track of Vermo. The ringed planet Saturn is at the eastern end of Pitäjänmäentie, 1444m from the model of the Sun. The Neptune model, 5cm in diameter, is on the western shore of Lehtisaari by a bridge, 4887m from the model of the Sun. Uranus and Pluto have been placed in Espoo. Uranus is on the grounds of Villa Elfvik, the environmental education centre of Espoo. Uranus is the only planet which could not be placed in a spot where the model of the Sun would have been visible, but it can be seen from the nearby pier of the Laajalahti marina. The smallest and the farthest of the planets, Pluto, is 6102m from the model of the Sun on the cycling bridge crossing the Karhusalmi. Pluto is only 2mm in size and therefore it has been implemented differently inside a small length of pipe. (In June 2000 both the planet and the guide chart were missing.) The other planets have been made out of steel and placed on top of grey concrete pillars.

RSP information Principal directions of research: (1) development of theoretical and experimental models of light scattering in regolith-like media; (2) analysis of optical and radar data on planetary surfaces obtained by earth-based telescopes and spacecrafts. Basic results obtained in the Department: A new approach has been developed to study polarimetric properties of the Moon at large phase angles, which makes it possible to map the average regolith particle size for some regions of the nearside of the Moon. A theoretical model has been advanced for the negative polarization of the light scattered by atmosphereless celestial bodies at small phase angles; the model is based on the coherent enhancement of backscatter. Theoretical and computer models have been suggested for the shadow and interference components of the phase dependence of brightness of regolith-like surfaces; the models has been used for interpretation of the data obtained by Clementine. A theoretical model has been developed for spectral albedo of multicomponent regolith-like surfaces with different types of particle structure and composition; the model has been applied to the various celestial bodies (The Moon, Phobos, and asteroids). On the base of calculations and laboratory data, an alternative explanation has been proposed to 3 micron absorption band in low-resolution reflectance spectra of some asteroids: chemical trapping of solar wind protons and formation of OH groups in the superficial zones oxygen-bearing regolith particles; so the 3 micron absorption can take place without presence of water molecules on the surface.

76. Orbits In Strongly Curved Spacetime In strong gravitational fields, general Relativity predicts orbits What simportant to note is that for orbits like those of planets in the Solar System http://www.fourmilab.ch/gravitation/orbits/

Orbits in Strongly Curved Spacetime Sorryit appears your browser doesn't understand Java applets. Introduction The display above shows, from three different physical perspectives, the orbit of a low-mass test particle , the small red circle, around a non-rotating black hole (represented by a grey circle in the panel at the right, where the radius of the circle is the black hole's gravitational radius , or event horizon . Kepler's laws of planetary motion, grounded in Newton's theory of gravity, state that the orbit of a test particle around a massive object is an ellipse with one focus at the centre of the massive object. But when gravitational fields are strong, as is the case for collapsed objects like neutron stars and black holes, Newton's theory is inaccurate; calculations must be done using Einstein's theory of General Relativity. In Newtonian gravitation, an orbit is always an ellipse. As the gravitating body becomes more massive and the test particle orbits it more closely, the speed of the particle in its orbit increases without bound, always balancing the gravitational force. For a black hole, Newton's theory predicts orbital velocities greater than the speed of light, but according to Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity, no material object can achieve or exceed the speed of light. In strong gravitational fields, General Relativity predicts orbits drastically different from the ellipses of Kepler's laws. This page allows you to explore them. The Orbit Plot The panel at the right of the applet shows the test mass orbiting the black hole, viewed perpendicular to the plane of its orbit. The path of the orbit is traced by the green line. After a large number of orbits the display will get cluttered and may start to flash; just click the mouse anywhere in the right panel to erase the path and start over. When the test mass reaches its greatest distance from the black hole, a yellow line is plotted from the centre of the black hole to that point, the

Next G ENERAL S CHOLIUM. The hypothesis of vortices is pressed with many difficulties. That every planet by a radius drawn to the sun may describe areas proportional to the times of description, the periodic times of the several parts of the vortices should observe the duplicate proportion of their distances from the sun; but that the periodic times of the planets may obtain the sesquiplicate proportion of their distance from the sun, the periodic times of the parts of the vortex ought to be in the sesquiplicate proportion of their distance. That the smaller vortices may maintain their lesser revolutions about Saturn Jupiter Bodies projected in our air suffer no resistance but from the air. Withdraw the air, as is done in Mr. Boyle's vacuum, and the resistance ceases; for in this void a bit of fine down and a piece of solid gold descend with equal velocity. And the parity of reason must take place in the celestial spaces above the earth's atmosphere; in which spaces, where there is no air to resist their motions, all bodies will move with the greatest freedom; and the planets and comets will constantly pursue their revolutions in orbits given in kind and position according to the laws above explained; but though these bodies may, indeed, persevere in their orbits by the mere laws of gravity, yet they could by no means have at first derived the regular position of the orbits themselves from those laws.

In addition, a series of major web sites dealing with the search for extrasolar planets are listed. They are as follows: Discovery of Extrasolar Planets Extrasolar Planetary Systems Exoplanets The Extrasolar Planets Encyclopedia ... Other Worlds, Distant Stars In addition to the above sites, NASA's Origins Program is attempting to answer an important question (among others), Are there worlds like the Earth around nearby stars? If so, are they habitable, and is life as we know it present there? SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION Our solar system exists. This is an irrefutable fact. Because of our solar systems existence, the question that begets itself time and time again is whether or not planets exist around stars other than our own. Based on the size of our universe and the laws of probability, the odds are excellent that our solar system is not unique in the universe. To better appreciate the odds, it is useful to consider the size of the universe . At the present time it is estimated that 50 billion galaxies , the largest of which contain thousands of billions of stars, are visible to modern telescopes including the

Beta Pictoris is the only star for which a circumstellar dust disk has been directly imaged. Previously, transitory absorption features were observed in the star's spectrum. Attributing these to the fleeting passage of comets is complicated by the puzzling fact that there are many more red shifts (90% of the sample) than blue shifts among the features. Performing computer simulations, astronomers have now been able to explain the asymmetry in the features by invoking the presence of at least two planets in orbit around Beta Pictoris. (Harold F.
