Planets Saturn

Anglo-Saxon lead L. plumbum) Long known, mentioned in Exodus. The alchemists believed lead to be the oldest metal and associated with the planet Saturn. Native lead occurs in nature, but it is rare. [Pg.85]

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]

Some of the elements of war have found a place in peacetime. The same kind of reaction in uranium that makes an atomic bomb explode can be controlled to make electricity in a nuclear power plant. The Cassini spacecraft now orbiting the planet Saturn runs on plutonium fuel. Plutonium-based fuel was also used to power devices that the Apollo 14 astronauts left on the Moon, such as a seismometer left to detect movements of the Moons crust. The Voyager spacecraft also sent its golden record out to the stars with... [Pg.61]

Properties Colorless gas (or liquid) sharp, intensely irritating odor lighter than air easily liquefied by pressure. Bp -33.5C, fp -77C, vap press of liquid 8.5 atm (20C), sp vol 22.7 cu ft/lb (70C), d (liquid) 0.77 at 0C and 0.6819 at bp. Very soluble in water, alcohol, and ether. Autoign temp 1204F (650C). Combustible. Note Ammonia is the first complex molecule to be identified in interstellar space. It has been observed in galactic dust clouds in the Milky Way and is believed to constitute the rings of the planet Saturn. [Pg.65]

Cassini division The largest gap in the rings around the planet Saturn, located between rings A and B. chondrule A small nodule, consisting of silicate materials, found in certain types of meteorites and asteroids. [Pg.229]

In the centre we see the other planets Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. Vegetalistas may visit all these planets rather easily, because they are not very far away. [Pg.65]

The second largest planet (after Jupiter), Saturn is a gas giant surrounded by a broad collar of icy rings and at least 18 named moons (and counting). It s so large that 95 Earths could fit inside it. But its density is so low that, if there were an ocean large enough to hold the entire planet, Saturn would float. [Pg.114]

Here s the rule The transits that pack the biggest wallop are those made by the slowest planets — Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto — to the Sun, the Moon, the Ascendant, and the faster planets. Contacts made by the faster planets are usually short-lived. Contacts made by the slower planets to the slower planets (such as Uranus opposite your Pluto or Neptune conjunct your Saturn) may be too subtle to detect (unless the natal planet happens to occupy a prominent position in your chart). But contacts made by a slow planet to one of your personal planets — Pluto conjunct your Moon, Uranus opposite your Sun, and so on — signify the chapters of your life. [Pg.235]

LEAD Aic. Since all the sigils used for this metal are synonymous with those used for the planet SATURN, see also t)ie entries under this name. The following sigils have been recorded specifically as relating to the metal ... [Pg.154]

You have probably heard about, and looked at pictures of, the rings around the planet Saturn. On average, these rings are about twenty meters thick and they are made up of 93% ice and about 7% carbon. There is actually a pretty large distribution of particle sizes in these rings, ranging from specks the size of dust to chunks of material ten meters in... [Pg.265]

Hydrogen Is the most common element In the solar system (It constitutes about 87% of the sun s mass). It therefore seemed reasonable to think that, when the planets were formed, other elements should have been present In reduced (not oxidized) forms carbon as methane, nitrogen as ammonia, and oxygen as water. Indeed, some of the outer planets (Saturn and Jupiter) still have atmospheres that are rich in methane and ammonia. [Pg.60]

Early alchemists related the planet Saturn to which element ... [Pg.270]
