Answer:
A planned goal of the Psyche mission is to study asteroids between Mars and Jupiter
.
Explanation:
Psyche is a NASA's mission designed to investigate the origin of planetary nuclei by examining the metal asteroid 16 Psyche. This asteroid could be the exposed iron core of a protoplanet, probably the remnant of a violent collision with another object that removed the outer mantle.
The Psyche spacecraft will, among other things, use solar wind to bring the vessel out to the asteroid belt and bring with it a number of instruments. Launch is expected to occur in 2022 with the arrival of the asteroid in 2026 after using Mars' gravitational field in 2023 for acceleration. The studies of 16 Psyche itself are scheduled to take 21 months.
Answer:
An atmosphere is the layer of gases that surrounds a planet.
Explanation:
The definition above is exactly what an atmosphere is.
All planets have atmospheres, of varying compositions depending on the location of the planet, the distance from the star they go round, the composition of the planet itself, and the presence or not of other celestial bodies nearby like moons or large asteroids.
Mars for example, has a very thin atmosphere, something that makes it hard for life to prosper in the red planet (so far, we have no evidence of life in Mars), and also makes it very cold, because atmospheres also act as mitigators of planetary climates.
