Sentences with phrase «on an inclined orbit»

The origin of such a misalignment in HD 100453, and of the spirals, is unclear, and might be due to a yet - undetected massive companion inside the cavity, and on an inclined orbit.

But the real kicker for the researchers was the fact that their simulations also predicted that there would be objects in the Kuiper Belt on orbits inclined perpendicularly to the plane of the planets.

The stars swings between 11.4 and 36.0 AUs away in a highly elliptical orbit (e = 0.52) that takes almost 80 (79.90) years to complete and are inclined at an angle of 79.23 ° from the perspective of an observer on Earth (see Pourbaix et al, 2002, or 2000 in the Sixth Catalog of Orbits of Visual Binaries; and Worley and Heintz, 1983).

Their orbits around each other is inclined by 103 ° with respect to an observer on Earth (Staffan Söderhjelm, 1999; Henry et al, 1992; Lippincott et al, 1983; and Lippincott and Manning, 1976).

In the coming weeks, TESS will conduct a set of engine burns as it travels on a series of phasing loops out toward the Moon's orbital path, culminating in a lunar flyby and gravitational assist that will place the spacecraft on a lunar transfer orbit that will be inclined 37 degrees from the Moon's orbital plain.

Their orbit is inclined about 139 ° from the perspective of an observer on Earth.

I think that the observed length of day is more real than the lod measured by radio telescopes using distant quasars, the fact that the Earths orbit is elliptical and that the Earth is inclined to the rotation gives us real changes here on Earth (just because something is more accurate does not mean more relevant).

Participants discussed a scenario involving flight of solar occultation instruments (e.g., SAGE or Canadian ACE) on free flyers in inclined, precessing orbits to ensure continuity of measurements of stratospheric ozone and pertinent trace - gas profiles.
