How to use planetary in a sentence?

  1. John Grunsfeld:

    Understanding what happened to the Mars atmosphere will inform our knowledge of the dynamics and evolution of any planetary atmosphere, learning what can cause changes to a planet’s environment from one that could host microbes at the surface to one that does n’t is important to know, and is a key question that is being addressed in NASA’s journey to Mars.

  2. Yun Zhang:

    Most planetary bodies consist of numerous pieces of rock that have coalesced under the influence of gravity. You could imagine them as sandcastles floating in space. Their structure can be disrupted when the force acting on the individual 'sand particle' is larger than their mutual gravity, similar to the ocean tides on Earth, which result from the gravitational pulls of the sun and the moon, in space a planetary body that comes close enough to a star is subjected to the strong gravitational pulls of that star.

  3. John Debes:

    Most of the models scientists have created to explain rings around white dwarfs only work well up to around 100 million years, so this star is really challenging our assumptions of how planetary systems evolve.

  4. Brad Jolliff:

    Planetary scientists know that the more craters on a surface, the older it is ; the fewer craters, the younger the surface. That's a nice relative determination, but to put absolute age dates on that, one has to have samples from those surfaces. The Apollo samples gave us a number of surfaces that we were able to date and correlate with crater densities. This cratering chronology has been extended to other planets -- for example, for Mercury and Mars -- to say that surfaces with a certain density of craters have a certain age.

  5. Mark Lynas:

    Most of the planetary surface would be functionally uninhabitable, agriculture would cease to exist everywhere, apart for the polar and sub-polar regions, and perhaps the mid-latitudes for extremely heat-tolerant crops. It's difficult to see how crops could be grown elsewhere. There's a certain level above which plants just can't survive.
