Saturn

bright satellite of Saturn. By sending a space orbiter and a lander to the sixth largest moon of Saturn and the brightest world in the solar system (NASA, 2015), We can easily accomplish this researching mission and bring lots of valuable data back to earth. Enceladus, with approximately 310 miles diameters, is one tenth of the Saturn’s largest moon. (NolaTRedd, 2016) It was first discovered by Frederick William Herschel in 1789. People have few understandings until the two Saturn missions are…

Origins The Voyager program began in the 1965 with Gary Flandro’s discovery of a rare planetary alignment of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune that would occur in 1977. This alignment occurs only once every 175 years. The Grand Tour as the program was called had launch windows between 1976 and 1980. The original idea of the Grand Tour was to send four probes to ultimately visit every planet in our outer solar system. In 1971 funding for the Grand Tour program was canceled in the 1973 NASA…

Titan Project-Atmosphere As we discover much more about information of Titan, we gradually completely agree with that Atmosphere of Titan is different, special, and mysterious. Above all, scientists are willing to put their all attentions to study this unknown atmosphere of Titan. This is also a same way that our groups plan to make some missions and built a spacecraft with plenty of instruments, which can send exactly data back to Earth. Hopefully, each instrument really works each other and…

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…

more and more about the outside world. The rings of Saturn are one phenomenon that astronomers are continuing to study. Just recently, it was revealed that these scientists who were studying these rings came to a few surprising theories. THEORY NUMBER 1 ON THE SATURN RINGS It has been concluded by astronomers that the more opacity that something has doesn't mean that it has more mass. They came to this conclusion while studying the rings of Saturn, and they were no doubt surprised. Phil…

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

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.…

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…

Astronomer Giovanni Cassini Astronomer Giovanni Cassini is the scientist I chose because he discovered the moons of my favorite planet. He is associated with many amazing astronomical discoveries, including the first observations of Saturn's moons. For this reason, the Cassini spacecraft was named after him. It was launched in 1997 and plunged into the planet in 2017. Born on June 8, 1625, in Perinaldo, Republic of Genoa (now Italy), he was given the name Giovanni Domenico by his parents, Jacopo…

Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun and the second largest planet in the solar system. Saturn is the farthest planet from Earth and not visible to the naked human eye, but it is through a telescope that the planet’s most outstanding features can be seen: Saturn’s rings. Although the other gas giants in the solar system, Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune, also have rings, those of Saturn are without a doubt the most extraordinary. Saturn is a gas giant made up of mostly hydrogen and helium gas,…
