Does the oort cloud go between mars and Jupiter?
No, the Oort Cloud is a spherical region of icy objects that lies far beyond the orbit of Neptune, extending out to about halfway to the nearest star. It is not located between Mars and Jupiter, which is where the asteroid belt is found.
What causes the belts of clouds seen on Neptune?
The belts of clouds seen on Neptune are thought to be caused by differences in temperature and composition within the planet's atmosphere. These belts represent areas of upwelling and downwelling movements of gases, creating distinct cloud patterns. Temperature variations and the planet's strong winds also play a role in shaping these cloud belts.
What does the surface of Neptune look like?
Neptune is a gas giant and does not have a solid surface like Earth. Its atmosphere mainly consists of hydrogen, helium, and methane, with no solid ground to speak of. The visible features on Neptune are atmospheric storms, including the Great Dark Spot and other cloud formations.
What is the Kuiper Belt and the Oort cloud?
The Kuiper Belt is a region of icy bodies beyond Neptune's orbit, containing dwarf planets such as Pluto and Eris. The Oort Cloud is a hypothetical region of icy bodies surrounding the solar system, extending much farther out than the Kuiper Belt and is the source of long-period comets.
What travels around the eight planets?
At least two very big things: the Kyper Belt beyond the orbit of Neptune, and farther out, the Oort Cloud.
Does Neptune's atmosphere have any clouds?
All we can see of Neptune is the top of a thick cloud layer.
What planet has a a rapidly moving cloud called the scooter?
Neptune is the planet that has the moving cloud nicknamed 'scooter'. Neptune is considered a gas giant, and is the eighth planet from the Sun.
What is the name of the unusual cloud on Neptune?
The Great Dark Spot
Which planet has a storm called the scooter?
Neptune. The scooter is a white cloud based storm.
What are some diferencess between earth and Neptune?
Neptune's diameter is slightly less than four times that of the Earth's Neptune has 17 times the mass If you weigh 180 pounds on Earth, you would weigh 202 pounds at Neptune's cloud tops Neptune is 30 times further from the Sun than the Earth
Large group of comets beyond Pluto's orbit?
The Kuiper Belt, a theorized area far beyond Neptune. There are actually two "shells" of debris around the Solar System. The Kuiper Belt is beyond Neptune, and the Oort Cloud is believed to be beyond that.
Does the oort cloud go between mars and Jupiter?
No, the Oort Cloud is a spherical region of icy objects that lies far beyond the orbit of Neptune, extending out to about halfway to the nearest star. It is not located between Mars and Jupiter, which is where the asteroid belt is found.
What are the temperatures of Jupiter and Neptune?
The mean atmospheric temperature on Neptune is as low as -218°C at the cloud tops and about 72° K or -200° C at the pressure level equal to 1 Earth atmosphere.
What causes the belts of clouds seen on Neptune?
The belts of clouds seen on Neptune are thought to be caused by differences in temperature and composition within the planet's atmosphere. These belts represent areas of upwelling and downwelling movements of gases, creating distinct cloud patterns. Temperature variations and the planet's strong winds also play a role in shaping these cloud belts.
Where are the comets found?
It is believed that there is a large cloud of comets, called the Oort Cloud, orbiting the Sun at a relatively large distance. Now and then, one of them is budged by gravitational forces; as a result, they come closer to the Sun - where we are.
