What else can I help you with?
Is there any satellite or robots that have explored neptune close up?
have any satellite or robots look-up close to neptune
The use of mathematics facilitated the discovery of this planet?
Neptune. Because of the accidental discovery of Uranus, it was calculated that a larger body had to have been disrupting it's orbit. A comet, asteroid and star were ruled out as the cause of a disruption because they were incapable of staying in such a regular motion around the sun. Therefore the body had to be a planet. Using the obervational information from Uranus' disruptions it was calculated where Neptune should be at any one time.
What planets cannot be seen with the naked eye?
Uranus and Neptune are not visible to the naked eye. They are much further away from Earth compared to the other planets in our solar system, making them too faint to see without a telescope.
Are astronauts and astronomers the same?
As astronaut travels into outer space and some have been killed doing so. Most astronomers stay on the planet Earth and look up into space. There have been astronauts who are astronomers, but, most astronomers are not astronauts. There have been tens of millions of astronomers looking up at outer space, but, only a few hundred astronauts. No, they are not the same.
Which Planets are not visible to naked eye?
Mercury, Neptune, and Pluto are not visible to the naked eye due to their distance from Earth or brightness levels. Uranus can sometimes be visible to the naked eye under very dark skies, but it is challenging to see without a telescope.
How did astronomers now where to look to discover Neptune?
Astronomers had noticed unexpected changes in the orbit of Uranus: the only explanation was another planet. Detailed study of the orbit of Uranus led to estimates about the size and location of Neptune.
How did astromoners know where to look to discover Neptune?
From calculations based on the orbits of other planets. There was obviously something influencing the orbit of Uranus.
How do astromerners know where to look to find Neptune?
Astronomers use mathematical calculations based on the position of other known celestial bodies to predict where Neptune should be located in the night sky. They also use specialized equipment like telescopes and software programs to track and observe Neptune's movement across the sky.
How did astronauts know where to look for Neptune?
Yes. Typically one looks to the sky to view Neptune.
How did know where to look to discover Neptune?
people hypothesized that the gravity of an unseen planet was affecting Uranus orbit. by 1846, mathematical in England and France had calculated the orbit of this unseen planet. shortly thereafter an observer saw and unknown object in the predicted area of the sky. It was Neptune
How long do astronomers have to go to school?
i dont know look it up :D , jacey ella
What prompted the astronomers to look for neptune?
They discovered Neptune in 1846, by examining the orbits of the other gas giant planets, particulary Uranus. Its slight deviation in orbit was as a result of neptunes gravitational effect.
What would you look like if you lived on Neptune?
You would look like a corpse. Life cannot be supported on Neptune.
How many companies take the Discover credit card?
Almost all companies accept the Discover credit card. When you go to a place of business look for the little Discover symbol and you will know they accept it.
What are the duties of astrologers?
Astrologers look at stars and predict events according to what they see. They are different from astronomers because astronomers have a scientific basis, while astronomers do not.
Are there any myths about Neptune?
Yes look up Myths of Neptune or posiden
Can you only see Neptune in a leap year?
You can see Neptune with a small telescope or with a good pair of binoculars any time except whenever the Earth and Neptune are on opposite sides of the Sun. So for nine months out of the year, you will be able to see Neptune - as long as you know where to look. It has nothing to do with leap years.
