What is true about asteroids?
Asteroids orbit the Sun, and some of them can cross the Earth's orbit.
What is the eccentricity of asteroids?
it is how circular and asteroids orbit path is.
What are the names of the asteroids that cross Earth's orbit and Jupiter's orbit?
Main Belt asteroids -- a band of asteroids located in the "missing planet" gap between Mars and Jupiter. None of these are economically attractive in a near term program because they are too far from Earth.Amor asteroids -- asteroids whose orbits approach but do not cross Earth orbit, and whose orbits are further from the Sun than Earth's orbit (i.e., "outside-t" Earth orbit). Many have orbits which reside entirely between Earth and Mars. Some of these are economically attractive in the near term.Apollo asteroids -- asteroids whose orbits cross Earth's orbit. Apollo asteroids spend most of their time outside Earth orbit. Many of these are economically attractive in the near term.Aten asteroids -- asteroids whose orbits cross Earth's orbit. Unlike Apollos, Atens spend most of their time inside Earth orbit. A large percentage of known Atens are economically attractive in the near term.
How many earth days does it take to orbit Saturn?
The sun does not orbit Saturn. Saturn orbits the sun.
Do comets orbit mars and Jupiter?
No. Comets orbit the sun. Many asteroids orbit the sun in between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
What makes the ring around Saturn?
Asteroids in orbit around Saturn
How did rings form on Saturn?
THe Saturn Rings are a "Belt" of asteroids that have all found a similar orbit around Saturn. They are made after a collection of asteroids fall into the same orbit, and when observed from a distance, look like the classic "rings".
What are Saturn 's rings made of?
Saturns ring are rocks and meteors spinning around Saturn
What is true about asteroids?
Asteroids orbit the Sun, and some of them can cross the Earth's orbit.
How many satellites orbit Saturn?
there is no satellites orbiting Saturn
How many days does it take satin to orbit the sun?
How many days does it take Saturn the planet to orbit the sun? How many days does it take Saturn the planet to orbit the sun?
Why does Saturn have rings on it?
Saturn's 'rings' are actually asteroids, meteorites and bits of rock that orbit around saturn. In the very far future, most planets may begin to have these rings due to rocks orbiting around planets.
What is the eccentricity of asteroids?
it is how circular and asteroids orbit path is.
