Ryan Zeigler:
Understanding how volcanism works on other planets lets us understand how the whole solar system formed. So if we want to know how we went from a giant ball of dust to nine planets orbiting around the sun… this is how we’re going to do it; studies like this, on rocks like this.
-
Robert De Rosa:
There are still a lot of open questions about this system, for example, we do not conclusively know where or how the planet formed. It is likely that both observers and theorists alike will be studying HD 106906 for years to come, unraveling the many mysteries of this remarkable planetary system.
-
Phil Musser:
The mass of critical opinion about the Clintons has been formed over several decades.
-
Mark To:
Gold prices are feeling some kind of pressure because of the increasing easing of risk aversion, people have formed expectations that central banks worldwide have to include more stimulus packages in their monetary policies, leading to risk asset appreciation.
-
Scott Sheppard:
Most objects that we know of interact with the planets in some way so the orbits have been disturbed over the past few billion years, whereas this object is so distant that it may not have been disturbed by planets. So its orbit is a pristine orbit from the formation of the original solar system. If we can get its orbit and understand how it formed and how it got there, it will tell us a lot about the formation of our solar system.
