  • Barycenter
    • center of mass of two (or more) bodies that orbit one another
    • the point about which bodies orbit
  • Binary System
    • two celestial objects with their barycenter of their orbits not lying within either body.
  • Dwarf Planet
    • dwarf planet is a celestial body that orbits the Sun directly and is massive enough for its own gravity to shape it into a rounded or ellipsoidal form (i.e. gravitationally rounded).
    • dwarf planet, however, is not massive enough to achieve orbital dominance like the eight classical planets of the Solar System. Planets clear their orbits by absorbing, ejecting, or gravitationally controlling smaller objects around them.
  • Gravitationaly Rounded
    • see dwarf planet
  • Orbital Dominance

  • Void

map of known galaxy voids
  • a region of space in the visible universe with less than expexted galaxies in it.
  • larger voids are sometimes called supervoids
  • Voids are ideal for studying neutrinos, as they allow neutrinos to stream freely, and missions like the Euclid satellite aim to compare neutrino samples with theoretical predictions to measure their total mass.
