11. Understanding these processes could also have applications outside the solar system, where astronomers recently have found evidence of large planets around several other stars. 12. When enough large planets orbit a star in proximity, perhaps they generate a gravitational slingshot that projects the planets into elongated orbits. 13. When a theorist ran simulations showing that such a large planet could survive intact that near its star, Mayor decided to go public with the results. 14. On a large gaseous planet like Saturn for example, which is remote from its parent star, the total atmospheric temperature is significantly affected by internal dynamics. |
