Is Ceres a gaseous planet?
Ceres is not a gaseous planet. Ceres is not a planet, it is a dwarf planet. Ceres has a rocky surface.
Does Ceres have any gravity?
Yes. Surface gravity on Ceres is about 3% that of Earth.
How is Ceres' surface different from Earth's?
Ceres has no atmosphere, no liquid water, and no life on its surface. Instead it is heavily cratered from impacts.
What is Ceres' surface tempurature?
-3658726485965231254
What is the surface temperature of Ceres?
167 degrees
How is Ceres different from earth?
Ceres has no atmosphere, no liquid water, and no life on its surface. Instead it is heavily cratered from impacts.
Does Ceres have a magnetosphere?
No one knows for sure, but most scientists believe Ceres barely has an atmosphere, if any. It has to be taken into consideration that Ceres only has about 4% of the gravity of Earth, so it must be very hard to keep an atmosphere.
What does Ceres consist of?
Ceres consists of water frost and different hydrated minerals like carbonates and clays. Ceres was discovered by Guiseppe Piazza on January 1, 1801. Ceres may contain an ocean of liqiud water underneath its surface which makes it a potential target in the search for extraterrestrial life (life which doesn't originate from earth). Ceres appears to be differentiated into a rocky core and ice mantle.
What is the surface pressure of Ceres?
Due to its small size, Ceres only has the smallest trace of an atmosphere, so the pressure is very close to zero.
What size is Ceres compared with earth?
The gravitational field at the surface is: For Ceres: 0.28 meters per second squared For Earth: 9.8 meters per second squared
What gases are on Ceres?
Ceres has no atmosphere, its surface is probably a mixture of water ice and various hydrated minerals such as carbonates and clays. It appears to be differentiated into a rocky core and icy mantle, and may harbour an ocean of liquid water under its surface.
