Imagining Extrasolar Planets


From the Spitzer Science Center. While astronomers have identified over 500 planets around other stars, they're all too small and distant to fill even a single pixel in our most powerful telescopes. That's why science must rely on art to help us imagine these strange new worlds. From Spitzer Space Telescope. Even without pictures of these exoplanets, astronomers have learned many things that can be illustrated in artwork. For instance, measurements of the temperatures of many "Hot Jupiters," massive worlds orbiting very close to their stars, hint that their atmospheres may be as dark as soot, glowing only from their own heat. While "Hot Jupiters" would be relatively dark in visible light, compared to their stars, their brightness is proportionally much greater in the infrared. Illustrating this dramatic contrast change helps explain why the infrared eye of NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope plays a key role in studying exoplanets. As our understanding evolves, so must the artwork. Astronomers found a blazing hot spot on the exoplanet Upsilon Andromedae b that at first, appeared to face towards its star. More data has revealed that the hottest area is actually strangely rotated almost 90 degrees away, near the day/night terminator. WASP 12b is as hot as the filament in a light bulb, and would be blazing bright to our eyes. Most interestingly, if it proves to have a strongly elliptical orbit, as first thought, calculations show it would be shedding some of its outer atmosphere <b>...</b>

How Extrasolar planets are detected


3 simple methods Exoplanets can be detected beyond our solar system. 1. Transit-A stars luminosity dims slightly due to the object that passes by. 2. Radial velocity- It moves a star from it's position continually, due to the gravitational attraction of other planetary bodies upon it. 3. Coronagraph telescopic attachment and infrared.-A telescopic attachment which allows for a Stars luminosity to be blocked, and other objects in the surrounding area to be infrared You can no longer use the lame argument "We're special because our planet is the correct distance from the star". Sorry.

Millions of Earth -- Exo-planets & Extraterrestrial Life HD


... And if we are no longer alone in the universe would be? The search for extrasolar planets and extraterrestrial life forms. The search for so-called exoplanets - planets orbiting around our sun is not, but to distant stars - is of paramount importance to you find an answer to one of the most probable most profound questions that mankind can ask: Are we alone in the universe? ESO's observatories are equipped with a unique arsenal of instruments that allow to find exoplanets and to study. With the VLT (Very Large Telescope) is the first time astronomers have failed to demonstrate the faint glow of a planet outside our solar system and so for the first time ever to depict an exoplanet. This new world is a giant planet, about five times as massive as Jupiter, the most massive planet in our solar system. This observation is an important step towards one of the main goals of modern astrophysics: to characterize the physical structure and chemical composition of giant planets and, ultimately, also from Earth-like planets. With HARPS, the High Accuracy Radial velocity Planet Searcher (literally, the "high-precision radial velocity planet hunter"), astronomers have discovered no less than three planets orbiting nearby stars and have similar masses as the planet Neptune. One of these planets has a mass about five times larger than Earth and is located in the habitable zone of its star. In this zone, temperatures prevail, in which water can exist in liquid form - the basic <b>...</b>

"The finding of these exo-planets, especially one that may even contain life is downright offensive," said one astrologer. "This is nothing but a continuation of the same sort of oppression foisted on astrology since that bastard Galileo allegedly discovered the moons of Jupiter.

Exoplanets


An artistic view of Solar Planets & Extra-solar planets An extrasolar planet, or exoplanet, is a planet outside the Solar System. There are billions of stars in our galaxy and a significant percentage of these stars are likely to have planets orbiting them. There are also planets orbiting brown dwarfs and free floating planets orbiting the galaxy directly. As of 27 April 2010, 453 extrasolar planets have been confirmed. The vast majority have been detected through radial velocity observations and other indirect methods rather than actual imaging. Most are giant planets thought to resemble Jupiter; however, substantial sampling bias exists since more massive planets are much easier to detect with current technology. A few relatively lightweight exoplanets, only a few times more massive than Earth, have now been detected and projections suggest that planets of roughly Earth-like mass will eventually be found to outnumber extrasolar gas giants. Extrasolar planets became a subject of scientific investigation in the mid-19th century. Many astronomers supposed that such planets existed, but they had no way of knowing how common they were or how similar they might be to the planets of our solar system. The first confirmed radial velocity detection was made in 1995, revealing a gas giant planet in a four-day orbit around the nearby G-type star 51 Pegasi. The frequency of detections has tended to increase on an annual basis since then. It is estimated that at least 10% of sun-like <b>...</b>

Prelude No. 5 - To the Extrasolar Planet


This prelude in the album is particularly more sinister than its fellow preludes and also has a lot of lighting and video effects that effectively portray the doomful emotions that the music expresses. The prelude starts off with a very dark and grim theme giving the listener a clear understanding of the mood of the song. The theme here is played slightly different each time. The images in this part give us the sense that we are far out in space, passed our galaxy somewhere unknown. At 0:51 we see the first extrasolar planet, thus beginning our journey through the various images and musical sense that these extraordinary planets give us. At 1:14, we here another small yet recurring theme that is more playful in nature than our previous theme. Here, the images and light from outer space near the planets increases and decreases with strong beats of this theme. The trills give us the constant threat that these planets are malevolent and adverse in nature to us. We are shown 4 other planets rapidly and we disappear into nothingness. We reach a very agile and flighty moment with the stars at 1:57 and then land right at an exoplanet with rings. At 2:19, we are finally introduced to the primary theme of this prelude. This theme occurs the most. The musical emotions continue to be sinister and foreboding. We are reach another playful moment at 2:30 where the music seems to be conniving a horrible omen for our continued journey through space. We hear the dark theme again with <b>...</b>

A-(BLUE WATER)- EXO-PLANET-25-LIGHT-YEARS FROM EARTH.avi


A-(BLUE WATER)- EXO-PLANET-25-LIGHT-YEARS FROM EARTH..? Up to date about 418 or more exo-planets-(real name is:"Extra-solar-planets") have been discovered by scientists/astronomers and the like in deep space. In the Fomalhaut star system some of the first solar planets were discovered. However there are (4) known planets in the Fomalhaut star system. These would be Fomalhaut-b,c,d,and e. Most are thought to be too hot to support life as we know it on earth. Basically, a 'water-world' like planet. Scientists seek per say :"The Crown Jewel" of any exo-planets they find and they keep seeking the discovery for a water based planet like earth. or in other words, " A Earth-like-Solar-Planet"! Again, Ron Stewart the inventor of a new space and deep space imaging exploration technology which may be years ahead of it's own time has used his technology to go to the Fomahaut star system, and besides the known possible (4) planets known by scientists in the fomalhaut star system, once he was able to zoom into that star system with his technology he could see other semi-circular-circular celestial bodies. In zooming into one of them he was able to captivate in imagery the possible planet you see in this video. It does have 'blue like areas' in the possible planet. Ron Stewart is not stating this is water. But, it is very interesting to say the least. Could it be a planet that may have some small bodies of ice or water on it..? It is certainly worth further study. Ron Stewart invites <b>...</b>

Direct Image Of Extrasolar Planet


NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has taken the first visible-light snapshot of a planet circling another star. Estimated to be no more than three times Jupiter's mass, the planet, called Fomalhaut b, orbits the bright southern star Fomalhaut, located 25 light-years away in the constellation Piscis Australis, or the "Southern Fish." Fomalhaut has been a candidate for planet hunting ever since an excess of dust was discovered around the star in the early 1980s by NASA's Infrared Astronomy Satellite, IRAS. In 2004, the coronagraph in the High Resolution Camera on Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys produced the first-ever resolved visible-light image of the region around Fomalhaut. It clearly showed a ring of protoplanetary debris approximately 21.5 billion miles across and having a sharp inner edge. This large debris disk is similar to the Kuiper Belt, which encircles the solar system and contains a range of icy bodies from dust grains to objects the size of dwarf planets, such as Pluto. Hubble astronomer Paul Kalas, of the University of California at Berkeley, and team members proposed in 2005 that the ring was being gravitationally modified by a planet lying between the star and the ring's inner edge. Circumstantial evidence came from Hubble's confirmation that the ring is offset from the center of the star. The sharp inner edge of the ring is also consistent with the presence of a planet that gravitationally "shepherds" ring particles. Independent researchers have <b>...</b>

Organic molecules found by Hubble on extrasolar planet


NASA press release: NASA's Hubble Space Telescope (HST) has made the first detection ever of an organic molecule in the atmosphere of a Jupiter-sized planet orbiting another star. This breakthrough is an important step in eventually identifying signs of life on a planet outside our solar system. The molecule found by Hubble is methane, which under the right circumstances can play a key role in prebiotic chemistry — the chemical reactions considered necessary to form life as we know it. This discovery proves that Hubble and upcoming space missions, such as NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, can detect organic molecules on planets around other stars by using spectroscopy, which splits light into its components to reveal the "fingerprints" of various chemicals. "This is a crucial stepping stone to eventually characterizing prebiotic molecules on planets where life could exist," said Mark Swain of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), Pasadena, Calif., who led the team that made the discovery. Swain is lead author of a paper appearing in the March 20 issue of Nature. The discovery comes after extensive observations made in May 2007 with Hubble's Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer (NICMOS). It also confirms the existence of water molecules in the planet's atmosphere, a discovery made originally by NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope in 2007. "With this observation there is no question whether there is water or not — water is present," said Swain. The planet now <b>...</b>
