Extrasolar planet

Jupiter Jupiter is often referred to as “Gas Giant” due to it being the largest planet in the solar system as well as its composition of primarily hydrogen and carbon. The planet has an average temperature of -145 degrees Celsius. Its full name of Jupiter comes from the king of the Roman gods. Galileo Galilei discovered Jupiter along with its four largest moons on January 4th 1609. The planet’s iconic red, white, brown, and yellow stripes are due to regional changes. The white and yellow stripes…

Are the Aliens Avoiding Our Planet? In 1950, the physicist Enrico Fermi asked a crucial question during one lunch at the National Laboratory of Los Angeles. According to the number of galaxies, planets and starts that we know, it is very probable that extraterrestrial life exists. So, where is it? This question, known as the Fermi’s paradox, is very logical when the size of our universe is taken into consideration. Even though there are many hypothesis trying to find the answer of this…

was barren. As the data became more precise, the necessary adjustments to the model became more complicated. Four hundred years ago, Johannes Kepler announced his empirical laws (discovered experimentally) that accurately described motions of the planets. Three hundred years ago, Isaac Newton improved Kepler’s laws and provided many of the mathematical formulas that allow…

Some Psychologists believe that human are not from earth we appear on the planet by aliens ten hundreds of years ago. He suggests the earth may a prison planet since humans seem to be not violence. According to the one of the book that I scan is the “The Runes of Evolution”, the author said that the extra-terrestrials want is to be look or be like human beings and they should have evolved on some parts of the Earth, like planets that have been discovered by astronomers. They are like little…

Imagine a future where more planets become habitable. Many people would take that chance and succeed a dream of being a part of a new civilization. But on the other hand, many people prefer to keep their feet on the ground with the help of Earth’s gravity. But is it worth the risk? Our reasons of staying on our home planet is the chance of no return from the planet Mars, the price to journey a one way trip, and the tight spaces with people you don’t know. But there are good things about the trip…

William Huggins was an amazing contribution to the rise of astronomy. When Huggins was born in Cornhill, England on February 7, 1824. A bit later in life, Huggins married Margaret Lindsey who also had an affinity for astronomy. She persuaded her husband to continue his work and together they became a dynamic duo of astronomers. Somewhere towards the middle of his life, William Huggins built an observatory on top of the roof of his own house. At this time, he lived in Tulse Hill, England. The…

Well this has to be definitely the easiest question considering the location where we live. I personally play ice hockey with many people who work out at the space center for a variety of organizations to include SpaceX, United Space Alliance, and NASA. In fact, NASA is in the process of developing a charity team to play my law enforcement team. With SpaceX, Elon Musk plans on landing a Dragon capsule on Mars by 2018. He also is strongly working on civilian travel to space for transport…

observes pitch black planet". In the article the scientists discovered that the Exoplanet called WASP-12b reflects almost no light, making it seem almost entirely pitch black. Astronomers from McGill University, Canada, and the University of Exeter, UK, have measured how much light WASP-12b reflects- its albedo- using the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. WASP-12b's albedo measured in at 0.064. This amount of light is extremely low. The planet is…

The observable universe is about 90 billion light years in diameter. There are at least one hundred billion galaxies, each with one hundred to one thousand billion stars. Recently, we've learned that planets are very common too. And that there are probably trillions and trillions of habitable planets in the universe. This leads…
