Two closely orbiting water worlds in the system of a Herbig Ae/Be star | → | Two closely orbiting water worlds in the system of a Herbig Ae/Be protostar. |
DESCRIPTION | ||
→ | ||
Poseidon the god of the sea and his wife Amphitrite seem to be the perfect name, for this pair of waterworlds in close orbit with each other. The first comprises 2.8 Earth masses, while the second has 2.6 Earth masses and is also terraformable. The whole spectacle is only 74 light seconds away from the central Herbig Ae/Be star, which has 10 solar masses. | → | A binary pair of Water Worlds around a Herbig Ae/Be protostar. Young star systems such as these rarely house Water Worlds, so a binary pair of them is even more rare. Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea, and his wife Amphitrite seem to be the perfect name for this pair of water worlds in a close orbit with each other. The first planet weighs 2.8 Earth Masses, while the second 2.6 Earth masses and both are candidates for terraforming. The pair is only 74 light seconds away from the central Herbig Ae/Be star, which has 10 solar masses. |
