What else can I help you with?
Why don't asteroids have atmospheres?
Asteroids are too small to have enough gravity to prevent any atmosphere form escaping.
My buddies and I form a belt between Mars and Jupiter?
Between Mars and Jupiter is an asteroid belt.
Why do scientist think the asteroids will never form into planets?
Scientists believe that asteroids will never form into planets because the gravitational forces are not strong enough to bring them together to form a rounded shape like planets have. Additionally, asteroids' orbits often intersect with other celestial bodies, which prevents them from accumulating mass to form a planet.
What are the rocks that form a path between mars and Jupiter?
The asteroids.
How might the craters on the the moon have been formed?
By asteroids impacting the surface.
Why don't asteroids and meteors do not have a coma?
Because they do not have volatiles in them to form a coma as to comets.
Why is the theorized that the asteroids did not merge to form a planet?
One theory is that the gravitational influence of Jupiter prevented the asteroids in the asteroid belt from merging to form a planet. Jupiter's strong gravitational pull disrupted the formation process by stirring up the asteroids' orbits, making it difficult for them to coalesce into a larger body. Additionally, the asteroids in the asteroid belt may have had too much relative velocity to effectively merge.
How are the moons of asteroids formed?
Although many asteroids accreted through gravity and tidal interactions, their "moons" would simply be smaller asteroids or meteoroids that were caught in the gravitational pull. Unless they approach directly and collide, they can form orbits around the larger body until perturbed by some other body.
What is one good hypothesis why the asteroids did not form a planet?
jupeters gravity disrupted their formation
How do moon craters form on the moon?
They are formed by asteroids and meteorites crashing into the surface of the moon
How did ice form on Jupiter?
any asteroids that collide with the planet containing ice deposit it on the surface
Could the world end by asteroids?
I think it might be because it can fall down into the earth one day.
