Sentences with phrase «as venusian»

Not exact matches

At altitudes of more than 3 kilometres above the planet's plains, Venusian mountains reflected Magellan's radar signals much more strongly than ordinary rocks, just as if they were covered by ice.

The oceans will boil away and the atmosphere will dry out as water vapor leaks into space, and temperatures will soar past 700 degrees Fahrenheit, all of which will transform our planet into a Venusian hell - scape choked with thick clouds of sulfur and carbon dioxide.

However, the lack of radio observations by the Cassini spacecraft during two close flybys and the lack of optical detections by Venus Express as well as ground - based observers leave the question of Venusian lightning somewhat unresolved (Yair et al. 2008; Yair 2012).

As SEP events may produce very large enhancements in the ion production rate in the Venusian upper and middle atmosphere, investigations of space weather effects at Venus are relevant to future missions to the planet, particularly those carrying low - frequency radar instruments (Nordheim et al. 2015).

While the exact mechanism for charging and for initiating lightning within the Venusian clouds is not currently known (Yair 2012) it is nonetheless likely that cosmic ray ionization has an important role in this process as it is believed to be the primary source of atmospheric ions at middle and low altitudes.

Detection of tremolite, a mineral created in the presence of water, could be used to ascertain how long any Venusian oceans lasted as a habitat for Earth - type life over the past 4.6 billion years of planetary history (more).

Dr. Sakanoi specializes in determining the variations in planetary atmospheres, such as Jovian aurora and Venusian clouds by obtaining continuous monitoring data with the T60 and T40 telescopes at Haleakala summit.

In 2004, Schulze - Makuch and his colleagues announced their speculations that such microbes may survive in Venusian clouds with the help of molecular rings of sulphur to shelter from the Sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation as Venus does not have a protective layer of ozone in its atmosphere.

Better known as «Mystery», Erik von Markovik has a proven record of success when it comes to picking up women (yes, even the ones most men think are «out of my league»), which led to the founding of Venusian Arts.

You can create and customize a male or female character based on one of three classes (Fighter, Engineer, Outcast), as well as one of three races (Human, Mercurian or Venusian).

[Response: Hansen's degree was in astrophysics, not astronomy, and dealt with radiative transfer in the Venusian atmosphere as a function of aerosols and greenhouse gases — pretty relevant I'd say.

The atmosphere of Venus is mostly CO2 but the atmospheric heat arises as a result of the mass and density of the Venusian atmosphere (apparently more than 90 times that of the Earth) not just the absorption characteristics of CO2.

There was never runaway warming on Venus, and a bit more attention to the evidence, as Harry Huffman has done, shows the Venusian CO2 = warming is simply bad science.

So the Venusian atmosphere is set into overdrive as far as the Greenhouse Effect is concerned, cooking its surface.

The Lacis - Hansen equation was derived from Sagan's work for Venusian thermal runaway: it seems this work was incorrect as well.

Instead, that property is almost axiomatic, and is used to describe extra-terrestrial climates (Sagan's hypothesis for the Venusian climate comes to mind) as well as a myriad of phenomena in our own atmosphere.

It goes on to assert that any point in the Venusian atmosphere at the same pressure as the Earth's would be at the same temperature with appropriate adjustment for the relative power received from the sun.

This same relationship seems to hold all throughout the Venusian atmosphere, so when you go to OTHER altitudes on Venus where the pressures are the same as on Earth, you see temperature differences in the same ratio, 1.176 (within a reasonable margin of error).

It turned out that the Venusians were highly advanced in bioscience (as one of the explorers put it, «they have forgotten more about organic chemistry and genetics than we'll ever know») and had biotechnology «indistinguishable from magic» — all of their «technology» consisted of living organisms, or materials produced by living organisms.
