Saturn V

currently known solar system and explore the far galaxies (Cowen, 2013). This success can be attributed to the robust design of the probe, the powerful boost the device was given by its rocket and the propulsion it gained as it traversed Jupiter and Saturn. However, by the year 2025, Voyager 1’s power generators are expected to attain their full lifespan and perhaps that will mark the end of this incredible probe. Until then, voyager 1 remains to be the most relied upon probe in exploring the…

primary mission. Voyager 1 had a primary mission of exploring the inner Jovian planets Jupiter and Saturn, while…

Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are known as the terrestrial planets. In comparison to the outer planets, they are small in size, made of denser materials, and lack a huge numbers of moons. Even though they share these common traits, they are still very different from each other. Mercury is the closest planet to the sun, yet its surface is either extremely hot or extremely cold due to the slow rotation of the planet on it's axis and the lack of atmosphere. It is also unique in that it's core is…

Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun with the largest ring system, which makes it one of the most easily identified planet for stargazers (figure 1). How Saturn got these fascinating rings around it is still a mystery to scientists today. There are many theories that will be discussed in this paper, but it is possible that no one could ever really know for sure. However, Saturn is not the only planet with a ring system, there are a few others but nothing as extravagant as what Saturn has.…

Christiaan Huygens was a Dutch Mathematician and Scientist in the late 17th century. It becomes difficult at this stage to be any more specific than that, as his achievements are in fields so varied and so far-reaching that the only description of him that fits is ‘polymath’. Indeed, we are only learning of some achievements today, as his reticence to publish many of his works kept many of them from seeing the light of day for quite some time (Igorevich). He was born in the cold April of 1626 in…

implications and some differences in the data as mentioned by the authors who have worked in this field already. The article are selected on the basis of the work mentioned relating to the data sent by voyager during its encounter with Jupiter and Saturn and also during its travel in heliosheath and termination shock. The review features the history and previous studies done on the implications of data sent by the Voyagers.…

Planets and moons within the solar system are different in terms of composition, geologic activity, interior structure, magnetic field, and atmospheres. We can deduce each of these properties through routine astronomical observations, spectroscopic/remote observations, laws of physics, solar system modeling as well as direct sampling. Given that many economists and government officials object to using our resources to visit other objects physically, by studying our solar system we will continue…

Neptune is also known as the is a dark, cold, and windy planet that’s been discovered in 1846 by John Couch Adams, Johann Gottfried Galle, and Urbain Le Verrier. The reason for Neptune being -10 degrees is because it’s eight planets away from the sun. A way to describe Neptunes physical features is “Neptune has an incredibly thick atmosphere comprised of 74% hydrogen, 25% helium and approximately 1% methane. Its atmosphere also contains icy clouds and the fastest winds recorded in the solar…

Neptune Neptune's core which is approximately the size of Earth is believed to be composed of rock and Ice the course covered with a thick mantle that contains water liquid ammonia and methane mixed with gases it is bitterly cold on Neptune with an average temperature of -210 degrees Celsius however it is warmer than expected for a planet's distance from the Sun since Neptune has an internal energy source like others Neptune is the fourth largest planet in terms of diameter making it the…

Saturn Saturn is one of the eight planets within our solar system; Nine, if you consider Pluto to be a planet. When we, as an average audience, look at the Saturn we automatically think that it’s that one planet with the the ring around it. Some people even assume that it’s the one and only planet with a ring about it. Those people would be wrong. Saturn is one of four planets that have rings in their orbit. The other three would include Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune. The sixth planet in our…
