Sentences with phrase «moving out of orbit»

Everyone though this was hilarious and I think it got the message across, although our Moon was a little mischievous and kept moving out of orbit.

In the atmosphere the absorption of visible light's energy by the electrons of the gas air does not create heat, the energy is used in motion through space (think petrol in the car used for motion through space), as the electron is moved in its orbit and when returning to ground state when it spits out the same energy as entered; the right kind of energy and an electron can be moved out of its orbit completely.

According to theory, planets in such distant orbits move so slowly that they should grow at a glacial rate and top out at masses well short of Jupiter's before the disk disperses.

The report, Pathways to Exploration — Rationales and Approaches for a U.S. Program of Human Space Exploration, responds to a charge from Congress in the 2010 NASA Authorization Act to examine the rationales that underpin human exploration, articulate its «value proposition» — what the public believes it gets out of human spaceflight versus what they put into it monetarily, and evaluate options — «pathways» — for moving beyond low Earth orbit (LEO).

Although astronomers have detected other EKOs whose orbits lie mostly 50 AUs, these objects have very eccentric orbits, and almost all eventually move inward to within 38 AUs of the Sun, which place them within Neptune's gravitational reach and so these EKOs are generally thought to have been scattered out to their present orbits by a gravitational slingshot with Neptune to become part of the «Scattered Disk.»

Tens of thousands of smaller objects are estimated to lie out there, left over from the upheaval caused by the giant planets moving away from the Sun and settling into their current orbits.

Currently located between the orbits of Uranus and Neptune in the inner Solar System, 2006 SQ372 travels on an extremely elongated, 22,500 - year orbit around the Sun, that comes within 24 AUs of Sol before moving as far out as 1,600 AUs.

The L2 orbit also prevented the occurrence of temperature changes due to the spacecraft moving in and out of eclipse in an Earth orbit, which are a particular problem for infrared instruments requiring extreme thermal stability.

Given the large orbital eccentricities of these two objects (which move beyond 500 AUs of the Sun), some astronomers have argued that they were likely to have been strongly perturbed by a massive celestial object (which is unlikely to have been Neptune as they do not come close enough to feel its gravitational influence) such as the passing of a rogue planet (perturbed from its primordial orbit by the gas giants of the inner Solar Sylstem) or one or more passing stars, which could have dragged the two objects farther out after initial orbital perturbation by Neptune or as part of a «first - generation» Oort Cloud.

As the electrons of the molecules of air absorb visible light they are physically moved in their orbit before coming back to ground state when they spit out the same energy they absorbed, the energy is conserved by the electrons using it in moving in their orbit and is conserved in the loss of speed of the visible light.
