| Probes have shown us stunning images of the rings of Saturn and the outer planets of our solar system. |
|
| And, until we establish colonies on asteroids and outer planets, this paradigm is not going to change. |
|
| Further afield there are the starkly beautiful pictures of a ringed Saturn and the outer planets, Uranus and Neptune. |
|
| The three outer planets were Jupiter-class gas giants, with an asteroid belt between the first gas giant and the second gas giant. |
|
| Launched in the late summer of 1977 within weeks of each other, the two probes made for the outer planets Saturn and Jupiter. |
|
| Further afield there are the starkly beautiful pictures taken by Voyager, of a ringed Saturn and the outer planets, Uranus and Neptune. |
|
| Pioneer 10 and 11 were the first spacecraft to venture beyond the asteroid belt into the realm of the outer planets. |
|
| One of four gas giant outer planets, Saturn is the second most massive planet in the solar system. |
|
| Now, however, they appear to be the most effective way to reach the outer planets of our solar system. |
|
| Since solar power decreases with the square of the distance from the Sun, missions to the outer planets require an alternate power source. |
|
| Later cosmogonists discarded this theory mostly because it did not account for the greater angular momentum of the outer planets. |
|
| Marcellus was struck down sick and incapacitated when a galactic storm struck the outer planets, creating destruction and havoc. |
|
| The moons of the outer planets in the solar system are also rich with various kinds of ices. |
|
| It is also known that the inner planets are dense and rocky, whereas the outer planets are composed largely of frozen gases. |
|
| Hence the outer planets Mars, Jupiter and Saturn have a more prominent influence, and were accordingly given larger orbs than the inferiors Mercury and Venus. |
|
| The four inner planets, including Earth, are rocky, and the four outer planets are gas giants. |
|
| Inner planets move fast, but outer planets move slowly so those parts of your forecast change over a longer forecast period. |
|
| Both the inner and outer planets should have almost circular orbits in the same plane. |
|
| This simple picture can explain the extensive differences observed between the inner and outer planets. |
|
| Herzberg also contributed much spectrographic information on the atmospheres of the outer planets and the stars. |
|
|
|
| For a conjunction of the outer planets with the Sun the geocentric celestial longitudes of the planet and the Sun are the same. |
|
| Much of our knowledge of the outer planets has been due to the Voyager Project. |
|
| These are separated into four inner planets and five outer planets. |
|
| No matter how many messages you leave me, there will only ever be twenty-four hours in a day until we start to colonise the outer planets of our solar system. |
|
| The impetus for the Voyager mission was to exploit a rare configuration of four of the outer planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, which occurs only every 175 years. |
|
| Other solar-system exploration programs, such as the next mission to the outer planets, are being slashed to pay for msl. |
|
| In addition to their primary mission exploring the outer planets, the spacecraft are still in operation and have now begun their second mission, known as the Voyager Interstellar Mission. |
|
| Without these probes, the outer planets would not be appreciated as they are, and the surfaces of many of their satellites would still remain unknown. |
|
| Previous spacecraft to the outer planets have relied on nuclear energy. |
|
| The outer planets, called gas giants, formed farthest from the sun, where gases could remain stable. |
|
| For the outer planets, triangulation is still used. |
|
| The Solar System is subdivided into the inner planets, the asteroid belt, and the outer planets. |
|
| The result is that for a standard type of space mission, such as the ones we used to reach Mars, Jupiter and the outer planets, we need a bigger spacecraft than we can build. |
|
| This process is known as cryovolcanism, and is apparently most common on the moons of the outer planets of the solar system. |
|
| The four outer planets are giant worlds with thick, gaseous outer layers. |
|
| Uranus and Neptune, the two outer planets, are too far away and too dim to be seen without a telescope. |
|
| The diminutive planet didn't appear massive enough to push the outer planets around. |
|
| Some proposed designs that could be built with current technology might hit 20,000 meters per second during a transfer to one of the outer planets. |
|
| In the 36 years since then, Voyager I has flown past Saturn and the outer planets, using their gravitational fields to accelerate gradually to 100,000 mph. |
|
| Nov 22-Dec 20 SAGITTARIUS JUPITER has been deposed as ruler of the Outer Planets and has billions of dollars he needs to get back to Earth for safety. |
