Todays discussion includes about the rings of plantes. It is for the first time for some readers that there are 4 planets that have rings--
jupiter,Saturn,Uranus,Neptune.
we say and we have seen the rings about saturn but the others ofcourse not.
theories about the rings of saturn are two-
the first theory says that there was a collision with a moon.
second one says that they were the debris of the a nearby explosion. although it is more clear that the moon theory is right. there are similar theories for other rings of other planets.
earth was born in similar way. but we are very sure that earth has no ring. but one can say that the debris all that are in atmosphere. but the properties are different.
if we observe the components of atmosphere that is chief gases in atmosphere,we can get a link.
according to me,
the findings of gases like hydrogen and helium in large quantities and that of
deuteride and methane in small quantities can help in solving the mysteries.
deuteride and methane in small quantities can help in solving the mysteries.
hydrogen and helium are the combustible gases. we have observed in daily life about their combustibility. but at the same time methane is less combustible and not as hydrogen. since the gases like hydrogen and helium have the maximum percentage in atmosphere of all the ring planets like
jupiter,saturn,uranus,neptune and all of them have minimum methane.AT the same time
mercury has 42% molecular oxygen,22% hydrogen
venus has 96.5% carbon di oxide and little traces of hydrogen
earth has 78% nitrogen and little trace of hydrogen
mars has 95% carbon di oxide and little trace of hydrogen
pluto has maximum trace of nitrogen
as it is clear that THEY DONT HAVE RINGS
2] RING PLANETS
JUPITER HAS 89.8% HYDROGEN,10.2% HELIUM
SATURN HAS 96% HYDROGEN,3% HELIUM
URANUS HAS 83% HYDROGEN,15% HELIUM
NEPTUNE HAS 80% HYDROGEN,19% HELIUM
so it is clear that the planets which have a ring have large quantities of hydrogen and helium in their atmosphere. when the planets were formed, at that time these planets must have been very reactive. as a result, there would have been constant consmic collision and combustible reactions. as a result matter from these planets would have been exploded in space and eventually they would have been cooled and when the planets took more or less geoid shape,these particles would have been attracted by the gravity and likewise now they are around the planets like jupiter,saturn,uranus,neptune. in the case of earth and other planets similar things would have happened but there wouldn't have been combustible reactions in atmosphere so the matter would not have remained like particles. rather we can say moon must have been formed.. like that of explosion theory for the formation of earth's moon. even the ring planets are more or less gaseous and are different from non-ringed planets. jupiter has a peculiar colour likewise saturn also they are the biggest in the solar system.uranus is the 3rd largest planet by size, neptune is windy planet. so is it because of the rings they are so large and have very unique characters. the rings are paricles of matter irregular in shape and moving with the planet in the orbit. because there atmosphere has violent gases to which when a meteror or asteroid would have strucked there could have been combustion and formation of debris.\
let us wait and watch what happens
we are lucky that there are ringed planets which increase the prestige of our planet!!!
