Ammonia (NH ) is the first binary molecule discovered in outer space of our galaxy, the Milky Way. It may also be the main compound that forms the rings of the planet Saturn. [Pg.210]

Both these ice and PAH spectral features are now being used as new probes of the interstellar medium of our Galaxy, the Milky Way and other galaxies throughout the Universe. The ices probe chemical processes in dark clouds and planet forming regions and the PAH features reveal the ionization balance as well as the energetic and chemical history of the medium. This paper has focused on the role of ices in the formation of complex molecules that are part of the raw materials from which stars, planets, satellites, and comets form. [Pg.106]

Moon. 10 m takes us out to between the orbits of Jupiter and Saturn, 10 ° m is approximately equal to 1 light year (ly), the distance light will travel in 1 year at a speed of 3 x 10 m/sec. The closest star to our sun, proxima cen-tauri, is 4.22 ly away. Our galaxy, the Milky Way, is approximately 100,000 ly... [Pg.24]

Heliosphere Region around the Sun in our galaxy (the Milky Way galaxy) influenced by the solar wind. [Pg.305]
