Sentences with phrase «gravity on different planets»

Not exact matches

Gravity is different depending of the mass of the planet that you are on.

A different planet might have some mitigating factors — for example, active geological processes that replenish the atmosphere to a degree, a magnetic field to shield the atmosphere from stripping by the stellar wind, or a larger size that gives more gravity to hold on to the atmosphere.

Both of these motions effectively either add or subtract mass in different areas and that has an effect on the planet's gravity field.

«Gravity is the force that binds stars, planets, and galaxies together,» said Scott Ransom, a co-author and astronomer with the National Radio Astronomy Observatory in Charlottesville, Va. «Though it appears on Earth to be constant and universal, there are some theories in cosmology that suggest gravity may change over time or may be different in different corners of the Universe.Gravity is the force that binds stars, planets, and galaxies together,» said Scott Ransom, a co-author and astronomer with the National Radio Astronomy Observatory in Charlottesville, Va. «Though it appears on Earth to be constant and universal, there are some theories in cosmology that suggest gravity may change over time or may be different in different corners of the Universe.gravity may change over time or may be different in different corners of the Universe.»

So if there's no external heating setting up temp differences and none from the planet (as we have from different heat capacities of surface stuff), does that really make it any different from what we have on Earth, because what we have on Earth is more interesting with all the temp variations coming into play, but they are, it seems to me, sort of superimposed on and weaving in and out of a basic which doesn't change, with stratified temp differences by gravity already well mapped.
