Exoplanete BD+48 738c - Illustration of an extrasolar planet orbiting a red dwarf star. In the sky, close to the dwarf star, the giant red star BD+48 738. It's a large planet, which may be a small brown dwarf, that orbits a red dwarf star. According to one reference: “”... one of the massive, dying stars - - BD+48 738 - - is accompanied not only by an enormous, Jupiter - like planet, but also by a second, mystery object. According to the team, this object could be another planet, a low - mass star, or - - most interestingly - - a brown dwarf, which is a star - like body that is intermediate in mass between the coolest stars and giant planets.

Exoplanete near a star at the end of life - A dying star sheds its outer layers - An artist's view of a star that, like the Sun at the end of life, turns into a red giant, and expels its upper layers into concentric circles, before becoming a white dwarf. In the foreground, an exoplanet distant from its star that sees its surface reheat. When a star like our sun nears the end of its life, it expands to more than 50 times its original diameter, becoming a red giant. Then over the next several tens of thousands of years the star episodically ejects its outer layers into space, sometimes producing concentric shells. These ejected layers eventually form a planetary nebula. What will subsequently remain of the star is a small, extremely hot core which cools off to become a white dwarf. In this image a red giant star expels its first of many shells of gas into space. In the years to come this spherical shell will grow outward, its circumference eventually expanding far beyond the orbit of th

Artist's view of a hot Jupiter - Exoplanet - Hot Jupiter - Artist's view of a gas giant exoplanet very close to its star. Many of the extra - solar planets which have been discovered in recent years are large, massive, and orbit surprisingly close to their parent stars. These are believed to be gas giant planets similar to Jupiter. Since they're so close to their sun, they're hot. Thus the common term for them has become “” hot Jupiter””. This one is hot enough to glow a dull red even on its night side. The existence of these planets has proven that the arrangement of other solar systems need not closely resemble our own

The End of the Earth - Artist's View - Earth's end - Artist view - Artist view from the Earth in 4 billion years. The Sun, becoming a red giant, will make life impossible on Earth. In about six billion years our sun is expected to dramatically expand and grow hotter as its helium core contracts and ignites the outer layers of hydrogen, eventually becoming a type of star called a “Red Giant.” In this image the Sun has just started its journey toward becoming a Red Giant, however the intense heat has already boiled off Earth's oceans and driven away most of the atmosphere leaving a lifeless, molten surface. The Sun will continue to bloom for the next few hundred million years until it fills the sky and eventually engulfs the Earth entirely

Uranus - Illustration - The planet Uranus and its system of rings. This image suggests how Uranus might look from a position in space several hundred thousand miles above its south pole. Like Saturn and Jupiter, Uranus is a Gas Giant, composed primarily of hydrogen and helium gases surrounding a relatively small, dense core of molten rock and metal. Its bluish color is due to the presence of methane in its upper atmosphere. Also like Saturn and Jupiter, Uranus has rings. However Uranus' rings are over three orders of magnitude dimmer than Saturn's; where Saturn's rings are almost white, Uranus' rings are more like the color of charcoal. Uranus 'rings are so dim that they went undetected from 1781, when the English astronomer William Herschel first observed Uranus through a telescope, until 1977 when astronomers watched as a star passing behind Uranus appeared to blink several times, caused by the ten rings surrounding the planet. One bizarre aspect of Uranus is that its axis of rotatio

Exoplanets around 70 Virginis - A jovian planet orbiting 70 Virginis - Artist's view of the extrasolar planet 70 Vir B, a giant gas planet orbiting around a solar star, about 78 years old - light from the Sun. This exoplanet has about 6 times the mass of Jupiter and its distance from its star 70 Virginis is almost the same as that of Mercury from the Sun. A ringed 70 Vir B presides over the hot and airless terrain of a hypothetical moon. While it is not known if 70 Vir B has rings, it is certainly possible. 70 Vir B's rings would have no ice in them due to is proximity to its sun. Such rings would likely be less than 100 million years old and could have been formed from the shattered remnants of an asteroid that wondered too close to this giant planet. 70 Vir B's eccentric orbit would increase the likelihood of its encountering other objects in orbit around 70 Virginis. About 78 light years from the Earth astronomers believe that there is a large planet orbiting 70 Virginis, a type G5V

Discovered in 1977 it was the first-identified member of a new class of objects now known as centaurs - bodies orbiting between the asteroid belt and the Kuiper belt. Besides the four giant planets, Chiron and 10199 Chariklo, also a centaur, are the only other bodies in the Solar System known to have rings. Although it was initially called an asteroid and classified only as a minor planet with the designation “” 2060 Chiron””, it was later found to exhibit behavior typical of a comet. Today it is classified as both a minor planet and a comet, and is accordingly also known by the cometary designation “” 95P/Chiron””

Neptune - Illustration - Artist's view of Neptune with its ring system and large dark spot observed by the Voyager 2 probe in 1989. This image suggests how Neptune might look from a position in space above the plane of its rings. Like Uranus, Neptune is a Gas Giant, composed primarily of hydrogen and helium gases surrounding a relatively small, dense core of molten rock and metal. Also like Uranus, Neptune has charcoal - colored rings, although they appear to be fewer in number than Uranus's. While Neptune's diameter is slightly less than Uranus ', it has more mass. Neptune's blue color is due to the presence of methane in its upper atmosphere. The dark spot in the southern hemisphere beneath the rings, dubbed “” The Great Dark Spot,””” is believed to be a giant storm which was active in 1989 when Voyager 2 photographed Neptune. Just beyond the rings at Neptune's 7 o'clock position, barely discernable from the background stars, is the tiny satellite Proteus. With an average diameter of

Neptune - Illustration - Artist's view of Neptune with its ring system and large dark spot observed by the Voyager 2 probe in 1989. This image suggests how Neptune might look from a position in space above the plane of its rings. Like Uranus, Neptune is a Gas Giant, composed primarily of hydrogen and helium gases surrounding a relatively small, dense core of molten rock and metal. Also like Uranus, Neptune has charcoal - colored rings, although they appear to be fewer in number than Uranus's. While Neptune's diameter is slightly less than Uranus ', it has more mass. Neptune's blue color is due to the presence of methane in its upper atmosphere.

Moon Formation: Hypotheses of impact giant - Moon Formation: Giant impact hypothesis: The hypotheses of impact giant suggests that the Moon was created from material ejecteated by a collision between the young Earth and a body the size of Mars named Theia, 4.5 billion years ago - The giant-impact hypothesis, sometimes called the Big Splash, or the Theia Impact suggests that the Moon formed out of the debris left over from a collision between Earth and a body of the size of Mars, approximately 4.5 billion years ago

Saturn and satellites seen by the Hubble space telescope - Saturn rings edge - on with satellites - Saturn observed by the Hubble space telescope on February 24, 2009 when the Earth is in the same plane as the rings, seen by the slice. This phenomene occurs every 15 years. On the top image, the largest satellite, Titan, projects its shadow on the planet and three satellites are visible on the left: Mimas and its shadow are discernable on Saturn's left blade, on the left, above the rings, Dione is clearly visible, and on the left, the Enceladus satellite. The image in the center shows the satellites Enceladus and Dione that cast their shadow on the west (left) side of Saturn, Titan in the upper right, and Mimas on the eastern edge of Saturn. In the image below, Dione and his shadow pass to the center of Saturn, above Enceladus and its shadow. Titan is on Saturn's eastern blade, Mimas is right above the rings. This sequence of images captures the parade of several of Saturn's moons trans

This phenomene occurs every 15 years. This sequence of images taken for just over three hours shows the movement from left to right of four satellites in front of the planet. From left to right on the top image we see the satellites Enceladus, Dione (the brightest ice satellite), Mimas and the largest satellite, Titan, orange. This sequence of images captures the parade of several of Saturn's moons transiting the face of the gas giant planet from left to right during more than three hours. This is a rare event because the rings are tilted edge on to Earth every 15 years. The top frame captures the giant moon Titan and its shadow near Saturn's northern polar hood. Tiny Mimas and its shadow have just entered the left limb of Saturn, slightly above the ring

Star HD 209458 in Pegase - Star HD 209458 in Pegasus - This star, located in the center of the image, is about 150 years from Earth and is observable with a pair of binoculars. In orbit around this star, invisible in this image, we discovered a giant planet called Osiris (HD 209458b). This extrasolar planet of a new type is a hot Jupiter, a massive planet very close to its star. The star located in the center of this image is called HD 209458. It is similar to our Sun and lies 150 light - years from Earth. It is visible with binoculars as a seventh magnitude star in the constellation of Pegasus. In orbit around this star (but invisible on this picture) is an exoplanet named Osiris (HD 209458b). It is a hot jupiter, a giant planet orbiting very close to its star
