Today ESVN discuss about mass extinction, volcanoes, star formation, galaxy dissolution, and space mission synchronized observing. Also a closer look at dark energy and dark matter and giant galaxies in the early universe.
We’ve spent a lot of time gushing about Saturn’s rings, but there are other places with ring systems. And not just Jupiter and the ice giants, but asteroids, dwarf planets, centaurs and even exoplanets. Today let’s gush about them!
A huge part of the Solar System is just made of ice. There are comets, rings, moons and even dwarf planets. Where did all this ice come from, and what impact has it had for life on Earth?
Talking about the ring system, the only astronomical body that comes up in the mind of peoples is the planet Saturn which has a ring system which can be seen easily with the help of a telescope. But did you know that Saturn is not the only one that has these jewels.
This week we find out if moons around other planets could support life, if there’s anything out there between galaxies, and whether stars form rings.
