Product Information

By day, it’s an impressive and educational addition to the room. At night, it will make the perfect night light. As it is battery operated, there’s no need to worry about connecting to the mains.

[34] :433–437 These laws stipulate that each object travels along an ellipse with the Sun at one focus, which causes the body's distance from the Sun to vary over the course of its year. A body's closest approach to the Sun is called its perihelion, whereas its most distant point from the Sun is called its aphelion. [35] :9-6 With the exception of Mercury, the orbits of the planets are nearly circular, but many comets, asteroids, and Kuiper belt objects follow highly elliptical orbits. Kepler's laws only account for the influence of the Sun's gravity upon an orbiting body, not the gravitational pulls of different bodies upon each other. On a human time scale, these additional perturbations can be accounted for using numerical models, [35] :9-6 but the planetary system can change chaotically over billions of years.

Makemake (45.79AU average from the Sun), although smaller than Pluto, is the largest known object in the classical Kuiper belt (that is, a Kuiper belt object not in a confirmed resonance with Neptune). Makemake is the brightest object in the Kuiper belt after Pluto. Discovered in 2005, it was officially named in 2009. [166] Its orbit is far more inclined than Pluto's, at 29°. [167] It has one known moon. [168]

Oliver has recently become obsessed with all things space. He has only just started school, but he loves the stars, asks about the planets, and was telling me all about gravity the other day!
