It extends millions of kilometres into space in all directions around the Sun. Every star has one. The Sun's is a well studied phenomenon , and it can reveal the interesting dynamics of the solar magnetic field, the solar wind, and even activity on the solar surface. Planets can have coronas too! Unlike stellar coronas, they are not made up of plasma; instead, they're the upper levels of the planetary atmosphere, also known as the exosphere , where the density of neutral particles is extremely low.
Earth's, for example, is called the geocorona , and it glows in far-ultraviolet due to the scattering of those solar rays off neutral hydrogen atoms. Mars also has hydrogen in its corona, in addition to oxygen and carbon. This view looks towards the side of Titan 3, miles or 5, kilometers across that leads in its orbit around Saturn. North on Titan is up and rotated 40 degrees to the left. Images taken using red, green and blue spectral filters were combined to create this natural-color view.
The images were taken with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Nov. The view was acquired at a distance of approximately 2. Image scale is 14 miles 23 kilometers per pixel. The Cassini orbiter and its two onboard cameras were designed, developed and assembled at JPL.
Photojournal: PIA The change in Titan's haze layer is illustrated in this figure, derived from data obtained by NASA's Cassini spacecraft. The picture of Titan in panel a was taken on May 3, , while the picture Titan's Haze is Falling. The above illustration, based on Galileo spacecraft images, shows the approximate difference in apparent size between a full moon at perigee the closest point in the lunar orbit, pictured at left Near and Far.

The terminator encroaches upon Penelope, one of the largest craters on Saturn's moon Tethys. Two other large craters, Polyphemus and Phemius, are visible near the limb in this view of the southern Penelope on Tethys. Enceladus revolves around Saturn inside the E Ring.
The satellite's bright surface shows evidence of extensive resurfacing over time. Enceladus's surface is so bright that it reflects almost With kaleidoscopic forms and hues, these two false-color views from NASA's Cassini spacecraft show the patterns that come and go in the course of one Saturn day within the huge storm in the planet' Kaleidoscopic Rainbows.
A great vortex rolls through high southern latitudes on Saturn, whirling twisted contours into the clouds. It has two moons, the much larger ringed Csodaszarvas and the smaller, cratered Turul. These were the people who were born on other planets, but lived on Reach for an extended period of time. These were the people who lived on Reach, but it is unknown if they were born there or came from elsewhere. Halo Alpha Explore. Getting Started. Administrators Guidelines Online Chat.
