Birthplace of the Sith exists in our Solar system.
Researchers of space found a lot of similarities the largest satellite of Neptune – Triton invented by Director George Lucas the planet Korriban.
She, on the idea of the Creator of “Star wars”, is the habitat of the main villains of the fantastic Saga of the Sith.
Newt, like his fictional counterpart is very cold and dark satellite. Its surface is full of volcanoes. Is this the satellite that it rotates in the opposite direction relative to the direction of rotation of the Neptune. Triton is always directed to only one side of the planet. Discovered by an English astronomer is still 171 a year ago. The name of the largest moon of Neptune was given, based on Greek mythology, where he was the eponymous God of the deep sea. The diameter of this satellite in about 2700 kilometers, so it takes the seventh position among the largest satellites of our system. Unlike the other moons of Neptune, Triton’s orbit is nearly a perfect circle.
Presumably, he had previously been a part of the Kuiper belt, which subsequently attracted to themselves a gas giant. Smooth plains on the lunar surface Neptune replace criteriamany areas. Recently it became known that on this moon, the seasons also change each other. Volcanoes on its surface, unlike earth, spewing ammonia and water. Geysers up release nitrogen, which, reaching a height of 8 kilometers, begins to spread parallel to the surface and partially deposited in the form of a kind of nitrogen frost.
With its gravitational force, the Triton retains its atmospheric layer, but the pressure there is almost 50-70 thousand times lower than what exists on our planet. The object in our Solar system able to reflect 65-95% of the light, and the temperature at its surface is about 230°C. On the surface of the moon of Neptune has water, which was freezing speed, which may indicate certain periods of melting and freezing. Polar cap of Triton is covered spots of pink, white and yellow, formed by the action of ultraviolet rays on methane.
Scientists foretell the Triton in the future, either a collision with Neptune, or an explosion, from-for which it will be just dust, subsequently forming planets around its ring. This is the conclusion they came because of their observed tendency to decrease the orbit of the largest satellite in the result of a number of factors.
The fact that in the film “Star wars” is very similar to Triton Korriban live, has its explanation. Scientists suggest that a few billion years, if Triton will survive, it may become habitable. Such a development is possible if the Sun will become a red giant and will be capable enough to heat up the surface of this satellite. As a result of poor atmospheric layer Triton will become thick enough and the ice melted, forming the oceans.
Researchers from a number of fans of “Star wars” are not going to stop only found on one planet and expect to find matches and other fictional celestial bodies with real. In addition to the Motherland of the Sith – Korriban, the universe of the epic “Star wars” has a whole lot of other celestial bodies.
