What evidence is there for volcanism on other planets and moons in the solar system?
Our moon has fields of cooled magma coating the surface, which are the dark spots we see on earth. Jupiter's moon Io the most volcanically active body in the solar system, we've observed that during satellite fly-bys.
Do other planets have volcanoes?
The planets other than Earth on which we have observed volcanoes are Venus and Mars. These planets are made of the same materials to Earth and formed by the same processes. Therefore, like Earth, they have hot interiors that can produce molten rock. Mars may have cooled enough that the volcanoes it has no longer erupt.
What is cooled lava call?
Cooled lava is called a igneous rock once it has completely cooled and hardened. Some people just call it lava rock.
How did the planets begin?
THEY BEGINED WHEN BIG CHUNKS OF HOT ROCK BLASTED & WHICH COOLED DOWN WITH PASSING TIME.
Where are obsidian rock found?
Obsidian rocks are found on the west coast near the pacific ocean by volcanoes because it is cooled lava called volcanic glass
Why do we have stars and sky?
After the big bang when the temperature of the universe cooled down, the gases combined to form matter in the form of planets.
What would happen to the earths plates if the mantle completely cooled down?
They'd stop moving.
Should bread be completely cooled before cutting?
yes, it is better because then the bread won't be cut perfectly.
What has the author Hans Fast written?
Hans Fast has written: 'Comparison of the electrode-cooled and the completely cooled mercury lamps for Raman spectroscopy' -- subject(s): Raman effect, Spectrum analysis, Physics Theses, Mercury
What is the only planet that is not spherical in shape?
All planets are 'round' because of gravity. With the formation of the Solar System, gravity gathered gas and dust into clumps which became larger and eventually planets. The collision of these pieces caused planets to become hot and molten and gravity pulled the molten material towards the planet's centre in the shape of a sphere. The planets cooled and remained spherical
Why are the planet round?
The force of gravity, pulled this molten material inwards towards the planet's center into the shape of a sphere. Later, when the planets cooled, they stayed spherical. Planets are not perfectly spherical because they also spin.
What did scientists learn by studying the rocks astronauts brought back from the moon?
Scientists learned that the moon has almost completely cooled since it's formation.
