William wanted the planet to be called Georgium Sidus because of the king George III. But the planet was called Uranus after the Greek god of sky. It takes Uranus 17 hours and 14 minutes to to rotate 1 time and it takes 84 earth years to spin around the sun 1 time. It has got 27 moons and they are divided into three different groups: thirteen inner moons, five major moons and nine irregular moons. The moons are named after characters
Nobody is known to be credited for the discovery of Mercury, though Timocharis made the first recorded observation of Mercury in 265 BC and does not have an actual discovery date. Mercury also has many notable features that most likely caught Galileo's eye, like it’s similarity to our Earthen moon. Mercury has a variety of craters, ridges and ranged terrain. Mercury can be said as one of the most interesting planets in our solar
The Chicxulub impact, known as the Chicxulub crater, was formed by an asteroid that collided with the Yucatan Peninsula located in Mexico 65.5 million years ago. The asteroid was said to hold the same energy as 100 million atomic bombs which precipitated an incident that destroyed the dinosaurs and nearly all life on Earth, leaving the atmosphere inhabitable for centuries. What is an Asteroid? Asteroids are pieces of rocks that aren't called planets based on the how small they are.
Between 4.1 and 3.8 billion years ago, was a period known as the heavy bombardment period (Evolution of the Moon. 2012). During this period, the moon was hit with numerous impacts that left craters. 3.1 to 1 billion years ago, mare volcanism took place (Evolution of the Moon. 2012). During this time, the lava from under the crust, broke through the surface, and filled the craters with Mare. Also during this time, intermediate cratering was taking place (Evolution of the Moon. 2012).
Death in this movement is considered only but an illusion and that life would continue on other planets. The Masters held all power and whatever they said is what must be (The Solar Temple 2004). A main practice that was performed was called cosmic coupling (Lewis 2005). Cosmic coupling is when the Master’s decided who should be with whom. Many married couples would split to be with placed with someone else.
The cratering record is evidence that Venus resurfaced within the past half-billion years. In the most recent cratering, Venus destroyed older craters. Geological conditions covered much of the older craters, older sediments also evolved. Studies suggest that the resurfacing occurred in the past half-billion years. 11) Describe four ways Mars is similar to Earth today.
People then often ask, “where are the stars?” and scientists reply that the stars are too faint for the camera to pick up, but others dismiss the idea by saying that is absurd. John Fuller, also writes, “in one of the most famous pictures of the moon there is a “c” rock; a rock that has the letter “c” on it. This makes it seem as if everything was staged and the rocks were merely props- only the set designer was careless enough to not flip the rock over, revealing the letter.” NASA opposes all moon landing theories with their most compelling evidence; “Geologists worldwide have been examining the lunar rocks brought back by astronauts for many years-the rocks simply could not have been collected or manufactured on Earth.”
Therefore, the portion of this hemisphere that is visible to an observer on Earth can vary from about 100% (full moon) to 0% (new moon). The lunar terminator is the boundary between the illuminated and darkened hemispheres. Each of the four "intermediate" lunar phases (see below) is roughly seven days (~7.4 days) but this varies slightly due to the elliptical shape of the Moon 's orbit. Aside from some craters near the lunar poles such as Shoemaker, all parts of the Moon see around 14.77 days of sunlight, followed by 14.77 days of "night". (The side of the Moon facing away from the Earth is sometimes called the "dark side", which is a misnomer).When the Sun and Moon are aligned on the same side of the Earth, the moon is "new", and the side of the Moon facing Earth is not illuminated by the Sun.
If you use something in the universe, such as a star, you can attempt to follow the causes of each effect. The star is an effect of a high concentration of interstellar gas and dust in an extremely cold region of space. The next question is, where does interstellar gas and dust come from? Interstellar gas is formed from molecular gas, which was formed by a theorized concept, called the ‘big bang theory’. The big bang was an enormous blast of energy throughout the universe, which formed all things instead the universe.
During this time, scientists conducted experiments using new instruments, like the microscope, while going through experiments with the scientific method (p. 346). Nicolaus Copernicus developed the heliocentric theory which said that the Sun is the center of the universe. This was kind a controversial statement because most people disagreed with the theory because it “contradicted the evidence of the sense” (p. 347). Johannes Kepler and Galileo Galilei were both mathematicians who indirectly worked together to provide concrete evidence that the Earth does revolve around the Sun (p. 347). Galileo used a telescope to see bumps on the moon and the rings on Saturn.
I chose “Astronomy: Discovery of Uranus by William Herschel in 1781” as the topic for my research. I found that William Herschel was many things, including a musician, composer, teacher, and astronomer. William also built his own telescopes to look into the night sky. During one of his searches, he found something odd; it wasn’t a nebulous star or comet, but something different. It turned out to be a planet which he named “Georgium Sidus” or Georges star in honor of George III.
Pluto, a planet that is only known to the average huan as the reject planet (once the ninth planet of our solar system,but now catorgized as a dwarf planet) and no thing else. So because of this lack of knowlegede scientist at NASA made a spacecraft named New Horizon to find anymore information on Pluto via flyby scan. After 9 and a half years hardship the spacecraft reached its destination. When the spacecraft sent information to the scientist on the dwarf planet scientist were dumbfounded on the output data.
They both contain many different types of atoms. For examples metals and gasses. The clouds are huge in size. The average temperature of an interstellar cloud are about 10 K. The density is about 1 Billion particles.
