Achondrite
An achondrite is a stony meteorite that does not contain chondrules.

Albedo
Albedo (albedo, meaning "whiteness") is the measure of the diffuse reflection of solar radiation out of the total solar radiation received by an astronomical body (e.g. a planet like Earth).

Asteroid
Asteroids are minor planets, especially those of the inner Solar System.

Asteroid belt
The asteroid belt is the circumstellar disc in the Solar System located roughly between the orbits of the planets Mars and Jupiter.
New!!: E-type asteroid and Asteroid belt · See more »
Asteroid spectral types
An asteroid spectral type is assigned to asteroids based on their emission spectrum, color, and sometimes albedo (reflectivity).

Aubrite
Aubrites are a group of meteorites named for Aubres, a small achondrite meteorite that fell near Nyons, France, in 1836.

Cambridge University Press
Cambridge University Press (CUP) is the publishing business of the University of Cambridge.

E-belt asteroids
The E-belt asteroids were the population of a hypothetical extension of the primordial asteroid belt proposed as the source of most of the basin-forming lunar impacts during the Late Heavy Bombardment.

Electromagnetic spectrum
The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of frequencies (the spectrum) of electromagnetic radiation and their respective wavelengths and photon energies.

Enstatite
Enstatite is a mineral; the magnesium endmember of the pyroxene silicate mineral series enstatite (MgSiO3) - ferrosilite (FeSiO3).

Feldspar
Feldspars (KAlSi3O8 – NaAlSi3O8 – CaAl2Si2O8) are a group of rock-forming tectosilicate minerals that make up about 41% of the Earth's continental crust by weight.

Forsterite
Forsterite (Mg2SiO4; commonly abbreviated as Fo) is the magnesium-rich end-member of the olivine solid solution series.

Gas giant
A gas giant is a giant planet composed mainly of hydrogen and helium.

Hungaria asteroid
The Hungaria group is a dynamical group of asteroids in the asteroid belt.
New!!: E-type asteroid and Hungaria asteroid · See more »
L-type asteroid
L-type asteroids are relatively uncommon asteroids with a strongly reddish spectrum shortwards of 0.75 μm, and a featureless flat spectrum longwards of this.
New!!: E-type asteroid and L-type asteroid · See more »
Late Heavy Bombardment
The Late Heavy Bombardment (abbreviated LHB and also known as the lunar cataclysm) is an event thought to have occurred approximately 4.1 to 3.8 billion years (Ga) ago, at a time corresponding to the Neohadean and Eoarchean eras on Earth.

M-type asteroid
M-type asteroids are asteroids of partially known composition; they are moderately bright (albedo 0.1–0.2).
New!!: E-type asteroid and M-type asteroid · See more »
Nice model
The Nice model is a scenario for the dynamical evolution of the Solar System.
New!!: E-type asteroid and Nice model · See more »
Planetary migration
Planetary migration occurs when a planet or other stellar satellite interacts with a disk of gas or planetesimals, resulting in the alteration of the satellite's orbital parameters, especially its semi-major axis.

Rosetta (spacecraft)
Rosetta was a space probe built by the European Space Agency launched on 2 March 2004.
New!!: E-type asteroid and Rosetta (spacecraft) · See more »
S-type asteroid
S-type asteroids are asteroids with a spectral type that is indicative of a silicaceous (i.e. stony) mineralogical composition, hence the name.

Solar System
The Solar SystemCapitalization of the name varies.
New!!: E-type asteroid and Solar System · See more »
X-type asteroid
The X-group of asteroids collects together several types with similar spectra, but probably quite different compositions.
