The Taijituan System

[Feniexia]

Hmm...then let it be one of Heracles moons. That´s more stable than a asteroid. Are here no ways to grow up food in a space station big enough? It have to be for 20 people, that´s not THAT much....

Calypso is the second closest planet to Daedalus. It is our version of Saturn, except the rings aren't as spectacular as the latter's. It is also very hot, hotter than Venus, but not as hot as Althea.

Just to point out, having a gaseous planet so close to the star in a single-star solar system flies in the face of solar system formation theory.

[Myroria]

Hot Jupiters (also called roasters, pegasids, Pegasi planets or Pegasean planets) are a class of extrasolar planets whose mass is close to or exceeds that of Jupiter (1.9 × 1027 kg), but unlike in our own solar system, where Jupiter orbits at 5 AU, the planets referred to as Hot Jupiters orbit within approximately 0.05 AU of their parent stars. In comparison, a Hot Jupiter is about eight times closer to its star than Mercury is to the Sun.

Completely possible.

Although not stated explicitly in that article, I think 'hot jupiters' have a solid core given that they can turn into cthonian planets. Here's the wiki on solar system formation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_nebula#Overview_of_the_solar_nebula_hypothesis

[Myroria]

A Chthonian planet (sometimes misspelled Cthonian), is a hypothetical class of celestial objects resulting from the stripping away of a gas giant's hydrogen and helium atmosphere.

heh, didn't read further down that article

Challenges to the hypothesis

The current challenges for the nebular hypothesis include explaining:

   1. missing mass in Kuiper Belt
   2. capture process for Triton
   3. sideways rotation of Uranus
   4. discovered "hot Jupiter" exoplanets
   5. discovered exoplanets in binary and trinary stellar systems

Completely possible.

Fair enough.

isn't Wiki kinda a bad source to use as a resource to prove things since its not checked and u can basicaly make up anything on it. none of my classes let anyone or anything from wiki to be used for its lack of fact checkers...or am i just worng, wouldnt be the first time
Posted on: February 23, 2007, 08:33:51 PMoh and can i have something in space to even though i havnt gotten the 30 posts to get on the map yet?

[Myroria]

Wikipedia has been compared to Encyclopedia Brittanica, and any vandalism is reverted (on average) in 5 minutes. And you can have something in space, what do you want? Thanks for reminding me by the way, I'll update this once you tell me and I add it.

We'll with this solar system I'm confused as to why three planets are so close to each other. I think they should me more spread apart, I mean if they're larger planets wouldn't our planet get destroyed by the conflicting gravity? Sort of like the astroid belt between Jupiter and Mars....

[Myroria]

What three planets are you refering too?

[Rozaria]

I'm so cool lol

[Myroria]

Can you not randomly spam my thread?

[Rozaria]

Okay (mumbles: Think hes all that and bag of chip but he's NOT!)

[Myroria]

Whatever.
