Compare sizes for the planets and sort them by order from the Sun or by size. Planets' size, mass, and gravity. Number of moons, distance from the Sun and Earth, and composition.
Astronomers, however, are still hunting for another possible planet in our solar system,a true ninth planet, after mathematical evidence of its existence was revealed on Jan. 20, 2016. The alleged "Planet Nine," also called "Planet X," is believed to be about 10 times the mass of Earth ...

Stern’s definition thus counts dwarf planets and planetary-mass moons as planets. The Planet Definition Debate. Alan Stern and Ron Ekers. Many professionals in the field also criticize the IAU definition of trying to limit the number of planets with the most recent change to the definition, ...
The advent of the new Ares I launch vehicle has highlighted the need for advanced dynamic analysis tools for variable mass, flexible structures. This system is composed of interconnected flexible stages or components undergoing rapid mas... P Tobbe,A Matras,H Wilson - American Institute of Aeronau...
After a brief civil war on Coruscant, the Jedi forced the surviving group of dark siders to retreat to the Vultar system, where they discovered that the planets of the system were artificial. Intending to unleash as much destruction as possible, the Dark Jedi tried to use the machines, but...
When Pluto was downgraded by the International Astronomy Union (IAU) to a dwarf planet in 2006, other objects in the solar system enjoyed an upgrade. Among these was Ceres, the largest of the 750,000 asteroids. Still, although it is believed to account for a third of the mass of the en...
A number of Jedi sites could also be found on the planets Tython and Ossus, such as the Jedi Temple of Tython[6] or the First Temple on Ossus.[9] The Jedi maintained a connection to Tython, and one of their sacred texts described "notable beasts of Tython."[62] Ossus was also the...
This is also true of the orbits in this overlap region which satisfy the Hill criterion. As a result, we can use the first-order resonance overlap criterion as an effective stability criterion for pairs of observed planets. We show that for low-mass ( 10 M 鈯 ) planetary systems with ...
Third and fourth order mean motion resonances are studied in the model of the restricted three-body problem by numerical methods for mass parameters corresponding approximately to the Sun–Jupiter and Sun–Neptune systems. In the case of inner resonances, it is shown that there are two regions of...
