Pluto and Comets 1 Lecture 16 Dwarf Planets and Comets January 8a, 2014 2 Pluto -- Basic Information • Discovered by Clyde Tombaugh in 1930 • Period: Porb = 248 years • Distance: a = 39.5 AU • 3 moons (Charon, Nix, Hydra) • Demoted to Dwarf Planet in 2006 3 General Characteristics • Mass = 0.0025 times the Earth – Determined by using General form of Kepler’s 3rd Law • Radius = 0.2 Earth – Determined from eclipses of Charon • = 2300 kg/m3 ice and rock • Little known due to its large distance from the Sun. • Pluto is tilted on its side. 4 Spin and Orbit • Highly elliptical orbit (e = 0.25) – Pluto is sometimes closer to the Sun than Neptune – Orbit is tipped 17° from ecliptic – Aphelion = 49.3 AU – Perihelion = 29.7 AU • Both Pluto and Charon are tidally locked in synchronous rotation. – Pspin= 6.4 days (Pluto and Charon) – Porb = 6.4 days (Charon) 5 Surface Properties • Planet predominantly water ice • Frozen methane detected on surface • May have thin methane atmosphere • May be similar to Triton 6 Surface Features Pluto has never been visited by a spacecraft (the New Horizons probe is on its way and will arrive in 2015) so there are no clear images of its surface. At left are Hubble Space Telescope global maps of Pluto (smaller insets are actual images) that show bright and dark areas visible as the dwarf planet rotates. At right is a composite image in true color that is derived from eclipses by Charon. 7 If Pluto is sometimes closer to the Sun than Neptune, why doesn’t it ever collide with Neptune? A. They do collide every few thousand years. B. Neptune is primarily made of gases, so Pluto would pass right through it. C. Pluto’s orbit is steeply tilted with respect to Neptune’s, so they never actually cross. D. The synchronized timing of their orbit periods ensures a collision never occurs. 8 If Pluto is sometimes closer to the Sun than Neptune, why doesn’t it ever collide with Neptune? A.

Comet McNaught, January 2007. Click here for more info. 13 • Long period comets – May orbit once every million years – Origin in Oort Cloud -- spherical cloud up to 100,000 AU from Sun • Short period comets – Periods < 200 years – Origin in Kuiper Belt -- disk shape 30-100 AU from Sun. 14 Anatomy of a Comet • Nucleus – few km in diameter – ices and rocky material (“dirty ice ball”) – Only part of a comet that exists away from the Sun. • Coma -- Gases evaporated off of surface of nucleus as Sun heats it. 15 • Hydrogen envelope • Tails -- Always point away from the Sun – Dust tail -- small dust particles, slightly curved in direction of orbit. – Ion tail -- ionized molecules pushed straight back by solar wind 16 Neither tail trails the comet like a jet contrail. In fact, the tail sometimes leads the comet! 17 Suppose the density of a comet’s tail is 8.5×10−17 kg/m3 and it’s a cylinder 5×105 km in radius and 1.0 AU (1.5×108 km) long.

  • Dwarf Planet Ceres
    Dwarf Planet Ceres drishtiias.com/printpdf/dwarf-planet-ceres Why in News As per the data collected by NASA’s Dawn spacecraft, dwarf planet Ceres reportedly has salty water underground. Dawn (2007-18) was a mission to the two most massive bodies in the main asteroid belt - Vesta and Ceres. Key Points 1/3 Latest Findings: The scientists have given Ceres the status of an “ocean world” as it has a big reservoir of salty water underneath its frigid surface. This has led to an increased interest of scientists that the dwarf planet was maybe habitable or has the potential to be. Ocean Worlds is a term for ‘Water in the Solar System and Beyond’. The salty water originated in a brine reservoir spread hundreds of miles and about 40 km beneath the surface of the Ceres. Further, there is an evidence that Ceres remains geologically active with cryovolcanism - volcanoes oozing icy material. Instead of molten rock, cryovolcanoes or salty-mud volcanoes release frigid, salty water sometimes mixed with mud. Subsurface Oceans on other Celestial Bodies: Jupiter’s moon Europa, Saturn’s moon Enceladus, Neptune’s moon Triton, and the dwarf planet Pluto. This provides scientists a means to understand the history of the solar system. Ceres: It is the largest object in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. It was the first member of the asteroid belt to be discovered when Giuseppe Piazzi spotted it in 1801. It is the only dwarf planet located in the inner solar system (includes planets Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars). Scientists classified it as a dwarf planet in 2006.

  • How We Found About COMETS
    How we found about COMETS Isaac Asimov Isaac Asimov is a master storyteller, one of the world’s greatest writers of science fiction. He is also a noted expert on the history of scientific development, with a gift for explaining the wonders of science to non- experts, both young and old. These stories are science-facts, but just as readable as science fiction.Before we found out about comets, the superstitious thought they were signs of bad times ahead. The ancient Greeks called comets “aster kometes” meaning hairy stars. Even to the modern day astronomer, these nomads of the solar system remain a puzzle. Isaac Asimov makes a difficult subject understandable and enjoyable to read. 1. The hairy stars Human beings have been watching the sky at night for many thousands of years because it is so beautiful. For one thing, there are thousands of stars scattered over the sky, some brighter than others. These stars make a pattern that is the same night after night and that slowly turns in a smooth and regular way. There is the Moon, which does not seem a mere dot of light like the stars, but a larger body. Sometimes it is a perfect circle of light but at other times it is a different shape—a half circle or a curved crescent. It moves against the stars from night to night. One midnight, it could be near a particular star, and the next midnight, quite far away from that star. There are also visible 5 star-like objects that are brighter than the stars.

  • Should Earth Get Demoted from Planet Status Just Like Pluto?
    IOSR Journal of Applied Physics (IOSR-JAP) e-ISSN: 2278-4861.Volume 10, Issue 3 Ver. I (May. – June. 2018), PP 15-19 www.iosrjournals.org Should Earth Get Demoted From Planet Status Just Like Pluto? Dipak Nath Assistant Professor, HOD, Department of Physics, Sao Chang Govt College, Tuensang;Nagaland, India. Corresponding Author: Dipak Nath Abstract: Clyde.W. Tombough discovered Pluto on march13, 1930. From its discovery in 1930 until 2006, Pluto was classified as Planet. In the late 20th and early 21st century, many objects similar to Pluto were discovered in the outer solar system, notably the scattered disc object Eris in 2005, which is 27% more massive than Pluto. On august-24, 2006, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) defined what it means to be a Planet within the solar system. This definition excluded Pluto as a Planet added it as a member of the new category “Dwarf Planet” along with Eris and Ceres. There were many reasons why Pluto got demoted to dwarf planet status, one of which was that it couldn't clear its orbit of asteroids and other debris. But Earth's orbit is also crowded...too crowded for Earth to be a planet? Earth is indeed in a very crowded orbit, surrounded by tens of thousands of asteroids and other objects. The presence of so many asteroids seems like a serious problem for Earth's claim that it has cleared its neighborhood. And Earth isn't alone in this problem - Jupiter is surrounded by some 100,000 Trojan asteroids, and there's similar clutter around Mars and Neptune.

Credit: NASA/JHUAPL/SwRI WHAT IS THE COLOR OF PLUTO? Article Updated: 28 Mar , 2017 by Matt Williams When Pluto was first discovered by Clybe Tombaugh in 1930, astronomers believed that they had found the ninth and outermost planet of the Solar System. In the decades that followed, what little we were able to learn about this distant world was the product of surveys conducted using Earth-based telescopes. Throughout this period, astronomers believed that Pluto was a dirty brown color. In recent years, thanks to improved observations and the New Horizons mission, we have finally managed to obtain a clear picture of what Pluto looks like. In addition to information about its surface features, composition and tenuous atmosphere, much has been learned about Pluto’s appearance. Because of this, we now know that the one-time “ninth planet” of the Solar System is rich and varied in color. Composition: With a mean density of 1.87 g/cm3, Pluto’s composition is differentiated between an icy mantle and a rocky core. The surface is composed of more than 98% nitrogen ice, with traces of methane and carbon monoxide. Scientists also suspect that Pluto’s internal structure is differentiated, with the rocky material having settled into a dense core surrounded by a mantle of water ice.

  • The Solar System Cause Impact Craters
    ASTRONOMY 161 Introduction to Solar System Astronomy Class 12 Solar System Survey Monday, February 5 Key Concepts (1) The terrestrial planets are made primarily of rock and metal. (2) The Jovian planets are made primarily of hydrogen and helium. (3) Moons (a.k.a. satellites) orbit the planets; some moons are large. (4) Asteroids, meteoroids, comets, and Kuiper Belt objects orbit the Sun. (5) Collision between objects in the Solar System cause impact craters.

  • Initial Characterization of Interstellar Comet 2I/Borisov

The discovery of asteroidal-looking ‘Oumuamua3,4 was thus a huge surprise and a puzzle. Furthermore, the physical properties of the ‘first scout’ turned out to be impossible to reconcile with Solar System objects4–6, challenging our view of interstellar minor bodies7,8. Here, we report the identification and early characterization of a new interstellar object, which has an evidently cometary appearance. The body was discovered by Gennady Borisov on 30 August 2019 UT and subsequently identified as hyperbolic by our data mining code in publicly available astrometric data. The initial orbital solution implies a very high hyperbolic excess speed of ~32 km s−1, consistent with ‘Oumuamua9 and theoretical predictions2,7. Images taken on 10 and 13 September 2019 UT with the William Herschel Telescope and Gemini North Telescope show an extended coma and a faint, broad tail. We measure a slightly reddish colour with a g′–r′ colour index of 0.66 ± 0.01 mag, compatible with Solar System comets.
