Asteroid belt
The asteroid belt is the circumstellar disc in the Solar System located roughly between the orbits of the planets Mars and Jupiter.

Asteroid spectral types
An asteroid spectral type is assigned to asteroids based on their emission spectrum, color, and sometimes albedo (reflectivity).

C-type asteroid
C-type (carbonaceous) asteroids are the most common variety, forming around 75% of known asteroids.

Ellipsoid
An ellipsoid is a surface that may be obtained from a sphere by deforming it by means of directional scalings, or more generally, of an affine transformation.

Greek mythology
Greek mythology is the body of myths and teachings that belong to the ancient Greeks, concerning their gods and heroes, the nature of the world, and the origins and significance of their own cult and ritual practices.

Julian day
Julian day is the continuous count of days since the beginning of the Julian Period and is used primarily by astronomers.

Julian year (astronomy)
In astronomy, a Julian year (symbol: a) is a unit of measurement of time defined as exactly 365.25 days of SI seconds each.

Jupiter
Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest in the Solar System.
New!!: 36 Atalante and Jupiter · See more »
Kelvin
The Kelvin scale is an absolute thermodynamic temperature scale using as its null point absolute zero, the temperature at which all thermal motion ceases in the classical description of thermodynamics.

Light curve
In astronomy, a light curve is a graph of light intensity of a celestial object or region, as a function of time.

List of minor planet discoverers
This is a list of all astronomers who are credited by the Minor Planet Center (MPC) with the discovery of one or several minor planets.

Lyapunov time
In mathematics, the Lyapunov time is the characteristic timescale on which a dynamical system is chaotic.
New!!: 36 Atalante and Lyapunov time · See more »
Orbital resonance
In celestial mechanics, an orbital resonance occurs when orbiting bodies exert a regular, periodic gravitational influence on each other, usually because their orbital periods are related by a ratio of small integers.
New!!: 36 Atalante and Orbital resonance · See more »
Perturbation (astronomy)
In astronomy, perturbation is the complex motion of a massive body subject to forces other than the gravitational attraction of a single other massive body.

Radar astronomy
Radar astronomy is a technique of observing nearby astronomical objects by reflecting microwaves off target objects and analyzing the reflections.
New!!: 36 Atalante and Radar astronomy · See more »
Saturn
Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun and the second-largest in the Solar System, after Jupiter.

Urbain Le Verrier
Urbain Jean Joseph Le Verrier (11 March 1811 – 23 September 1877) was a French mathematician who specialized in celestial mechanics and is best known for predicting the existence and position of Neptune using only mathematics.
