Summary
[edit]DescriptionArtist’s impression of Corot-9b (transit).ogv |
English: This animation shows the exoplanet Corot-9b as it passes in front of its host star. Discovered by combining observations from the CoRoT satellite and the ESO HARPS instrument, Corot-9b is the first “normal” exoplanet that can be studied in great detail. This planet has the size of Jupiter and an orbit similar to that of Mercury. It orbits a star similar to the Sun located 1500 light-years away from Earth towards the constellation of Serpens (the Snake). Corot-9b passes in front of its host star every 95 days, as seen from Earth. This “transit” lasts for about 8 hours. Like our own giant planets, Jupiter and Saturn, the planet is mostly made of hydrogen and helium, and it may contain up to 20 Earth masses of other elements, including water and rock at high temperatures and pressures. Español: Esta animación muestra al exoplaneta Corot-9b mientras pasa frente a su estrella madre. Descubierto al combinar observaciones del satélite CoRoT y del instrumento HARPS de ESO, Corot-9b es el primer planeta "normal" fuera del Sistema Solar que puede ser estudiado en gran detalle. Este planeta posee el tamaño de Júpiter y una órbita parecida a la de Mercurio. Orbita a una estrella similar al Sol ubicada a 1.500 años-luz de distancia de la Tierra hacia la constelación de Serpens (la Serpiente). Corot-9b, visto desde la Tierra, pasa frente a su estrella madre cada 95 días. Este "tránsito" dura cerca de 8 horas. Como nuestros planetas gigantes, Júpiter y Saturno, el planeta está principalmente formado de hidrógeno y helio, y podría contener más de 20 masas terrestres de otros elementos, incluyendo agua y roca a altas temperaturas y presiones. |
