Bestial: Chilean Telescope achieves first measure length … – Ideal Digital

Bestial: Chilean Telescope achieves first measure duration of one day a famous exoplanet

Tremendous: The currently known to more and more and that some of them gather all habitable condition, but now all a Dutch team has even first measure the length of a day in the exoplanet Beta Pictoris, a total of eight hours, using the famous Very Large Telescope.

now know that planets are those identified exoplanets outside our solar system. NASA in February estimated that there are 1,700 identified

recall that more recently the discovery of the first exoplanet size of Earth where liquid water exist

At this point there have been reactions. A team of Dutch astronomers at Leiden University have been put to work

Along also the Institute for Space Research of the Netherlands (SRON) and have come to a conclusion.

The two body using the Very Large Telescope (VLT) of Cerro Paranal in Chile have timed . a day at one of these exoplanets

And the result it features this fact: the length of a day on one of those exoplanets

At this point, scientists paticiparon in the study felt that the biggest Ecuador this planet 16 times.

also has a mass 3,000 times that of Earth turns to a speed of 100,000 miles per hour.

This is going so fast that leaves the Earth back to its 17,000 kilometers per hour for 47,000 miles per hour on Jupiter. There’s nothing

So Remco de Kok, study coauthor is expressed:.. “Why some planets rotate faster is not known and some slower”

Add this regard: “but this first step of the rotation of an exoplanet shows that the trend seen in the solar system, where the most massive planets rotate faster may be applied to exoplanets”

.

not stop there and adds more: “It must be a universal consequence arising from the way the planets are created”

is Not. ill remember that Beta Pictoris is a very young planet, only 20 million years.

At this point, Beta Pictoris b, a star formed by gas giant discovered in 2008 that orbiting the star Pictoris.

No doubt find the performance characteristics of this exoplanet certainly is a success over astronomy.
