Chord (astronomy)
In the field of astronomy the term chord typically refers to a line crossing an object which is formed during an occultation event.

Enstatite chondrite
Enstatite chondrites (also known as E-type chondrites) are a rare form of meteorite thought to comprise only about 2% of the chondrites that fall on Earth.

Frigg
In Germanic mythology, Frigg (Old Norse), Frija (Old High German), Frea (Langobardic), and Frige (Old English) is a goddess.

Iron meteorite
Iron meteorites are meteorites that consist overwhelmingly of an iron–nickel alloy known as meteoric iron that usually consists of two mineral phases: kamacite and taenite.

Jet Propulsion Laboratory
The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) is a federally funded research and development center and NASA field center in Pasadena, California, United States, with large portions of the campus in La Cañada Flintridge, California.

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.

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.

M-type asteroid
M-type asteroids are asteroids of partially known composition; they are moderately bright (albedo 0.1–0.2).

Metal
A metal (from Greek μέταλλον métallon, "mine, quarry, metal") is a material (an element, compound, or alloy) that is typically hard when in solid state, opaque, shiny, and has good electrical and thermal conductivity.

Mineral hydration
Mineral hydration is an inorganic chemical reaction where water is added to the crystal structure of a mineral, usually creating a new mineral, usually called a hydrate.
New!!: 77 Frigga and Mineral hydration · See more »
Norse mythology
Norse mythology is the body of myths of the North Germanic people stemming from Norse paganism and continuing after the Christianization of Scandinavia and into the Scandinavian folklore of the modern period.
New!!: 77 Frigga and Norse mythology · See more »
Occultation
An occultation is an event that occurs when one object is hidden by another object that passes between it and the observer.
New!!: 77 Frigga and Occultation · See more »
Planetary and Space Science
Planetary and Space Science, published 15 times per year, is a peer-reviewed scientific journal established in 1959.
New!!: 77 Frigga and Planetary and Space Science · See more »
Radar astronomy
Radar astronomy is a technique of observing nearby astronomical objects by reflecting microwaves off target objects and analyzing the reflections.
New!!: 77 Frigga and Radar astronomy · See more »
Spectral line
A spectral line is a dark or bright line in an otherwise uniform and continuous spectrum, resulting from emission or absorption of light in a narrow frequency range, compared with the nearby frequencies.
New!!: 77 Frigga and Spectral line · See more »
Star
A star is type of astronomical object consisting of a luminous spheroid of plasma held together by its own gravity.
New!!: 77 Frigga and Star · See more »
Wavelength
In physics, the wavelength is the spatial period of a periodic wave—the distance over which the wave's shape repeats.
