O QUE SIGNIFICA ASTEROID EM INGLÊS

Asteróide

Asteroid

Os asteróides são planetas menores, especialmente aqueles do sistema solar interno. Os maiores também foram chamados de planetoides. Estes termos foram historicamente aplicados a qualquer objeto astronômico orbitando o Sol que não mostrou o disco de um planeta e não foi observado ter as características de um cometa ativo, mas como planetas menores no sistema solar externo foram descobertos, As superfícies baseadas se pareciam cometas mais próximas e, portanto, muitas vezes se distinguiram dos asteróides tradicionais. Assim, o termo asteróide veio cada vez mais se referir especificamente aos pequenos corpos do sistema solar interno para a órbita de Júpiter. Eles são agrupados com os corpos externos - centauros, trojans de Neptuno e objetos trans-neptunianos - como planetas menores, que é o termo preferido nos círculos astronômicos. Neste artigo, o termo "asteróide" refere-se aos planetas menores do sistema solar interno. Existem milhões de asteróides, muitos pensados ​​para ser os restos quebrados de planetesimais, corpos dentro da nebulosa solar do jovem sol, que nunca cresceram o suficiente para se tornar planetas.

Asteroids are minor planets, especially those of the inner Solar System. The larger ones have also been called planetoids. These terms have historically been applied to any astronomical object orbiting the Sun that did not show the disk of a planet and was not observed to have the characteristics of an active comet, but as minor planets in the outer Solar System were discovered, their volatile-based surfaces were found to resemble comets more closely and so were often distinguished from traditional asteroids. Thus the term asteroid has come increasingly to refer specifically to the small bodies of the inner Solar System out to the orbit of Jupiter. They are grouped with the outer bodies—centaurs, Neptune trojans, and trans-Neptunian objects—as minor planets, which is the term preferred in astronomical circles. In this article the term "asteroid" refers to the minor planets of the inner Solar System. There are millions of asteroids, many thought to be the shattered remnants of planetesimals, bodies within the young Sun's solar nebula that never grew large enough to become planets.
