triton is made up of meteorites
Triton is a dorf planet. It was just discovered.
No. Triton, as King of the Seas, is a myth.
Triton. Roman's would sometimes change the Greek names, but not for all. Triton was one that stuck.
Triton's parents are Poseidon (father) and Amphitrite (mother).
Io does have cliffs and cracks but it has been overslain by lava
Yes it does
Yes, Deimos has cliffs and cracks on its surface. These features are likely the result of impacts and other geological processes that have shaped the moon's terrain over time.
yes because we like pizza
Yes, Mercury has cliffs and cracks on its surface due to tectonic activity that occurred in the past. The formation of these features is linked to the planet's cooling and shrinking over time, causing the surface to crack and form steep cliffs.
Water can penetrate the small pores in gritstone cliffs. When the temperature drops, the water freezes and expands, putting pressure on the rock and causing cracks to form. Over time, repeated cycles of freezing and thawing can widen these cracks, eventually leading to the formation of larger fissures and eventual crumbling of the rock.
Yes, Triton is believed to have a rocky core surrounded by a layer of ice. It is one of the few moons in the solar system with a retrograde orbit, meaning it orbits in the opposite direction of its planet's rotation. Its surface is composed of a mix of icy plains, nitrogen geysers, and icy cliffs.
Freeze-thaw weathering occurs when water seeps into cracks in rocks, freezes, expands, and then thaws. This repeated cycle of freezing and thawing weakens the rocks by exerting pressure on the cracks, causing them to widen and break apart. In coastal cliffs, the presence of water from the ocean can accelerate the freeze-thaw process, leading to the gradual breakdown of the rocks over time.
Not in the usual sense. Jupiter is composed of gas, not solid land, although there is some thought that the very center of Jupiter could be composed of iron or a similar element.
Triton is a moon of the planet Jupiter.
The cliffs, or scarps, that have been found on Mercury are unlike any of the other planets in the solar system. NASA scientists believe that they formed when the center of the planet cooled, causing it to shrink, creating the cliffs.
