A planet is a?
A planet is a planet.A planet is a celestial body orbiting a star.
Can a star reflect the sun's light?
Stars are themselves celestial bodies that emit light by atomic fusion and fission and is not a dead planet to reflect our sun's light.
What planet's moon is so close in size that scientists consider it to be a binary planet?
Pluto and Charon. That's not a bad answer, except that Pluto isn't regarded as a planet now, of course.
What are the 3 celestial bodies that have been redefined by the IAU as dwarf planets?
The objects are Ceres, former asteroid, Pluto, a former planet, and Eris, formerly known as Xena.
All celestial bodies that move in a circular orbit move around something bigger planet xyz moves in a circular obit therefore planet xyz must be moving around something bigger?
Something with a gravitational field yes, not necessarily something bigger.
What are Celestial bodies which orbit around a planet?
These are known as moons.
What planet do scientists NOT consider a major planet?
the only planet that scientists do not consider a planet is Pluto, (but they also found new planets in the asteroid belt.)Pluto

What is the difference between an astronomer and an astrologist?
Answer: Astronomers are scientists, astrologers are either misguided or con men, depending on whether or not they actually believe what they're saying. Answer: An astronomer is a scientist who studies celestial bodies such as planets, stars, and galaxies. Astrologers study the movements and relative positions of these bodies and their influence on humans, animals, plants, and the planet.
Is it possible for a planet to be square?
No; if a planet was square, the gravitational attraction from the core would be uneven. This would not happen. For that reason, all celestial bodies such as planets and comets would have a resemblance to a sphere.
What are natural or artifial bodies that orbit larger celestial bodies such as planets?
These are called satellites. A lot of planets have natural satellites called moons, which are in orbit around the planet. An artificial satellite is one that is put there by man, it orbits the planet in a similar way.
What is the role of gravity as it relates to celestial bodies?
The celestial bodies attract one another through gravity. Among other things, gravity will:* Keep objects, such as planets, in orbits around other objects, such as stars. * Change orbits - e.g., one planet may influence the orbit of another planet. * Make objects such as stars and planets form in the first place.
What planets do scientists not consider a major planet?
Pluto. It is considered a dwarf planet but very small compared to others in our solar system
A planet is a?
A planet is a planet.A planet is a celestial body orbiting a star.
Does Pluto's moons consider as planet's moons too?
Yes because they are small bodies orbiting it
Why are Pluto and Neptune cold planets?
First of all, Pluto is not a planet. Pluto is a dwarf.Neptune and Pluto are freezing cold because they are the furthest celestial bodies from the sun. The further a celestial body is from the sun, the less heat and light theyreceive.
Why planet Saturn have the greatest number of ringlets?
Either a Saturn 's moon got destroyed into pieces by a celestial body, or maybe some celestial bodies went within Saturn's roche limit which burst them into pieces too.
