Sentences with phrase «into the liquid water ocean»

If the craft were to crash on the surface of a cold moon like Enceladus, the RTGs could easily thaw a path through tens of kilometers of ice, and plop down into the liquid water ocean beneath, though this might take a long time.

Not exact matches

When hydrogen and oxygen combine in a planet's atmosphere, they can ignite into a ball of fire and then leave behind liquid water oceans that would be good for life

That size means gravity has pulled Ceres into a sphere, with a core of rock, an icy coating and perhaps an ocean of liquid water locked between.

Along one string of sites, or «stations,» that stretches from Antarctica to the southern Indian Ocean, researchers have tracked the conditions of AABW — a layer of profoundly cold water less than 0 °C (it stays liquid because of its salt content, or salinity) that moves through the abyssal ocean, mixing with warmer waters as it circulates around the globe in the Southern Ocean and northward into all three of the major ocean baOcean, researchers have tracked the conditions of AABW — a layer of profoundly cold water less than 0 °C (it stays liquid because of its salt content, or salinity) that moves through the abyssal ocean, mixing with warmer waters as it circulates around the globe in the Southern Ocean and northward into all three of the major ocean baocean, mixing with warmer waters as it circulates around the globe in the Southern Ocean and northward into all three of the major ocean baOcean and northward into all three of the major ocean baocean basins.

The main difference between H2O and CO2 (apart from the numerical differences of their specific physical properites such as degree of freedom, thermal capacity, physical mass, etc) in terms of their effects on the atmosphere is that water is capable of condensing into liquid to form clouds and readily and rapidly moves between surface and atmosphere, daily, seasonally, annually and on even greater time scales, but CO2 does not liquify in the biosphere and transfers over mostly long time periods between surface (primarily oceans, seas, etc) and the atmosphere.

I looked into this after your post about a year ago on the Argo float temperatures and how the ocean generally does not heat above 30 degrees C. My knowledge of chemistry is limited; but, I noted these things: Carbon dioxide as well as other gasses in water act like a liquid.
