The solar system is said to be 4.6 billion years old. The formation of the solar system is not yet known accurately. Only theories have been presented about this. It is said that the Solar System may have originated from an explosion inside a large gas cloud, also called a nebula. Whereas the universe is…
Our solar system is not very old in the infinite ocean of space. It is said to have been formed 4.6 billion years ago. According to space scientists, the scientific theory says that the solar system was born from an explosion inside a large gas cloud, also called a nebula. In this explosion, planets were…
The existence of asteroids in space is as old as our solar system. Asteroids are those rocks scattered in space which can neither be called meteorites nor planets. They have their own distinct structure. The distance between two celestial bodies in the solar system is determined according to their orbit. But this fact applies only…
To explore the space deeply, with the help of modern science, man has prepared such instruments which can see far into it. If we talk about our own solar system, or solar system, it is present in the Milky Way Galaxy. The Milky Way galaxy is also said to have 4 circular parts, out of…
Asteroids are those rocks rotating in space which can pose a big threat to the Earth at any time. These have been revolving around the Sun since the time of its formation, bound by the Sun’s gravity. They are different from planets and meteorites but their structure is similar to planets, because they are made…
Apart from the planets, their satellites i.e. the Moon, asteroids also revolve around the planets in space. These are not satellites, rather they have been called minor planets or asteroids, because in structure they are similar to the planets. The second reason for calling them planets is that they revolve around the sun. While satellites…
Modern science has extended the scope of human vision beyond our solar system by making huge telescopes. The solar system is present in the Milky Way Galaxy. The Milky Way galaxy is also said to have 4 circular parts, out of which our solar system is continuously revolving around the galaxy in the outermost circle….
Asteroids are sometimes also called small planets. NASA says that these are rocky fragments left scattered in the solar system at the time of its origin 4.6 billion years ago. NASA has given the number of asteroids as 1,299,398. That means about 13 lakh asteroids have been identified so far. Talking about the asteroids of…
Asteroids are a part of our solar system which exist in the form of rocks. These rugged creatures can grow from 500 feet to several kilometres. NASA, which has identified 13 lakh asteroids, says that there are about 2000 such asteroids that can collide with the Earth. If this happens then there is a possibility…
