NASA data on planets
data(Planets)
A data frame with 10 rows and these variables:
planet
name of the planet
mass
in 10^24 kg
diameter
in km
density
in kg/m^3
gravity
in m/s^2
escape_velocity
in km/s
rotational_period
in hours
day_length
in hours
distance_from_sun
in 10^6 km
perihelion
in 10^6 km
aphelion
in 10^6 km
orbital_period
in days
orbital_velocity
in km/s
orbital_inclination
in degrees
orbital_eccentricity
obliquity_to_orbit
in degrees
mean_temperature
in C
surface_pressure
in bars
n_moons
a count
ring_system
does the planet have a ring system
global_magnetic_field
does the planet have a magnetic field
Two of the rows, MOON and PLUTO, are not considered planets. The orbital parameters of the MOON are with respect to EARTH. Others are with respect to the Sun. Negative rotation period denotes a rotation opposite that of most of the other planets.
