Abundance of the chemical elements

The abundance of the chemical elements is a measure of the occurrence of the chemical elements relative to all other elements in a given environment.

See Iron planet and Abundance of the chemical elements

Carbon

Carbon is a chemical element; it has symbol C and atomic number 6.

See Iron planet and Carbon

Dwarf planet

A dwarf planet is a small planetary-mass object that is in direct orbit around the Sun, massive enough to be gravitationally rounded, but insufficient to achieve orbital dominance like the eight classical planets of the Solar System. Iron planet and dwarf planet are Types of planet.

See Iron planet and Dwarf planet

Exoplanet

An exoplanet or extrasolar planet is a planet outside the Solar System. Iron planet and exoplanet are Types of planet.

See Iron planet and Exoplanet

Habitable zone

In astronomy and astrobiology, the habitable zone (HZ), or more precisely the circumstellar habitable zone (CHZ), is the range of orbits around a star within which a planetary surface can support liquid water given sufficient atmospheric pressure.

See Iron planet and Habitable zone

Helium

Helium (from lit) is a chemical element; it has symbol He and atomic number 2.

See Iron planet and Helium

Hydrogen

Hydrogen is a chemical element; it has symbol H and atomic number 1.

See Iron planet and Hydrogen

Impact event

An impact event is a collision between astronomical objects causing measurable effects.

See Iron planet and Impact event

Iron

Iron is a chemical element.

See Iron planet and Iron

Iron carbonyl

There are three iron carbonyl compounds.

See Iron planet and Iron carbonyl

LHS 3844 b

LHS 3844 b, formally named Kua'kua, is an exoplanet orbiting the red dwarf LHS 3844, about away in the constellation Indus, discovered using the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite. Iron planet and LHS 3844 b are terrestrial planets.

See Iron planet and LHS 3844 b

List of multiplanetary systems

From the total of stars known to have exoplanets (as of), there are a total of known multiplanetary systems, or stars with at least two confirmed planets, beyond the Solar System.

See Iron planet and List of multiplanetary systems

Magnetic field

A magnetic field (sometimes called B-field) is a physical field that describes the magnetic influence on moving electric charges, electric currents, and magnetic materials.

See Iron planet and Magnetic field

Mantle (geology)

A mantle is a layer inside a planetary body bounded below by a core and above by a crust.

See Iron planet and Mantle (geology)

Mercury (planet)

Mercury is the first planet from the Sun and the smallest in the Solar System. Iron planet and Mercury (planet) are terrestrial planets.

See Iron planet and Mercury (planet)

Neon

Neon is a chemical element; it has symbol Ne and atomic number 10.

See Iron planet and Neon

Oxygen

Oxygen is a chemical element; it has symbol O and atomic number 8.

See Iron planet and Oxygen

Plate tectonics

Plate tectonics is the scientific theory that Earth's lithosphere comprises a number of large tectonic plates, which have been slowly moving since 3–4 billion years ago.

See Iron planet and Plate tectonics

Protoplanetary disk

A protoplanetary disk is a rotating circumstellar disc of dense gas and dust surrounding a young newly formed star, a T Tauri star, or Herbig Ae/Be star.

See Iron planet and Protoplanetary disk

Solar System

The Solar SystemCapitalization of the name varies.

See Iron planet and Solar System

Terrestrial planet

A terrestrial planet, telluric planet, or rocky planet, is a planet that is composed primarily of silicate, rocks or metals. Iron planet and terrestrial planet are terrestrial planets and Types of planet.
