Richard’s Ceres is also conjoined a 00 Scorpio Mercury (lungs, nerves, highly sensitive to what’s communicated, and at 00 he’s just learning to deal with this in a Scorpionic fashion). The asteroid also sextiles the North Node (while not driving the destiny, it easily figures in), ...
Roman goddess of agriculture (identified with GreekDemeter), also the name given to the first-found and largest asteroid (discovered 1801 by Piazzi at Palermo), from PIE*ker-es-, from root*ker-(2) "to grow." Her festival,Cerealia, was April 10. ...
Research reveals that these compounds, the building blocks of life, may have arrived on Ceres through asteroid impacts rather than forming locally. The organic material detected in a few locations on the surface of the dwarf planet Ceres is likely of exogenic origin, meaning it was delivered by...
The Sun and Moon also are in close alignment with Vesta, which I think is quite interesting, given thatNASA’s Dawn spacecraftcurrently is flying by Vesta and sending back phenomenal images of the asteroid’s pockmarked surface. There’s no consensus among astrologers about the meaning of Vesta...
Dawn has also uncovered other intriguing details about Ceres, such as a seeming lack of large craters on the surface. The spacecraft previously visited a smaller asteroid, Vesta, and the relative number and sizes of craters on both bodies should be similar – but they aren’t, says Chri...
Highly porous nature of a primitive asteroid revealed by thermal imaging Article 16 March 2020 Introduction When Dawn arrived at dwarf planet (1) Ceres, it quickly became clear that the dominant colour variation over the surface is a variation of the spectral slope from the visible to the near...
The 1.7- to 4.2-micron spectrum of asteroid 1 Ceres - Evidence for structural water in clay minerals A high-resolution Fourier spectrum (1.7–3.5 μm) and medium-resolution spectrophotometry (2.7–4.2 μm) were obtained for Asteroid 1 Ceres. The presence o... LA Lebofsky,MA Feierberg,AT ...
Ceres is currently classified as a dwarf planet, meaning that it meets only two of the three criteria to gain full status as a planet. While it orbits the sun and has a spherical shape, it has not cleared the other large objects from its orbit. This is the same criterion that Pluto ...
