Summary
DescriptionA fly-through of the Alpha Centauri system.ogv |
Español: Volando por el sistema Alfa Centauri. En este vídeo podemos volar por la brillante estrella doble formada por Alfa Centauri A y B. En la secuencia final nos acercamos a Alfa Centauri B y vemos cómo aparece el nuevo planeta descubierto. Este planeta de masa similar a la de la Tierra es el exoplaneta más cercano conocido y el más ligero descubierto hasta el momento alrededor de una estrella tipo Sol. English: This video shows a fly-through of the bright double star Alpha Centauri A and B. In the final sequence we close in on Alpha Centauri B and a newly discovered planet swims into view. This Earth-mass planet is the closest exoplanet known and the lightest ever found around a star like the Sun. Português: Este vídeo mostra um voo pela estrela dupla brilhante Alfa Centauri A e B. Na sequência final aproximamo-nos de Alfa Centauri B e o planeta recentemente descoberto aparece à nossa frente. Este planeta, com massa semelhante à da Terra, é o exoplaneta mais próximo de nós e o mais leve já encontrado em torno de uma estrela do tipo do Sol. Nederlands: In deze videoclip maken we een vlucht door de heldere dubbelster Alfa Centauri. In de slotbeelden komen Alfa Centauri B en zijn pas ontdekte planeet in beeld. Deze planeet van ongeveer één aardmassa is de meest nabije exoplaneet die we kennen en tevens de lichtste die ooit bij een zonachtige ster is aangetroffen. Français : Cette vidéo montre la traversée de l'étoile double brillante Alpha du Centaure A et B. Dans la séquence finale nous nous rapprochons d'Alpha du Centaure B et la planète récemment découverte apparaît. Cette planète de masse terrestre est l'exoplanète la plus proche de la Terre connue et également la moins massive jamais découverte autour d'une étoile comparable au Soleil. Deutsch: Dieses Video zeigt einen Flug durch das Doppelsternsystem Alpha Centauri A and B. Zum Abschluss kommt bei der Annäherung an Alpha Centauri B der neuentdeckte Planet ins Gesichtsfeld. Suomi: Tämä video esittää läpilennon halki kirkkaan kaksoistähden Alfa Centauri A ja B. Videon lopussa lähestymme Alfa Centauri B:tä ja vast'ikään löydetty planeetta ajelehtii näkyviin. Tämä maanmassainen planeetta on lähin tunnettu eksoplaneetta ja kevyin milloinkaan löydetty auringonkaltaista tähteä kiertävä planeetta. Italiano: Questo video mostra l'attraversamento del brillante sistema doppio Alfa Centauri A e B. Nella sequenza finale ci avviciniamo ad Alfa Centauri A e B e il pianeta appena scoperto appare alla vista. Questo pianeta di massa simile a quella della Terra è il più vicino esopianeta noto e il più leggero mai trovato intorno ad un stella simile al Sole. Svenska: I denna video flyger vi i fantasin genom dubbelstjärnesystemet som utgörs av Alfa Centauri A och B. I slutet närmar vi oss Alfa Centauri B där en nyupptäckt planet glider in i bilden. Den här planeten, som väger ungefär samma som jorden, är den närmaste exoplaneten vi känner till och den lättaste som någonsin hittats runt en stjärna som liknar solen. Dansk: Denne videosekvens viser en flyvetur gennem af den klare dobbeltstjerne Alpha Centauri A og B. I den sidste sekvens zoomer vi ind på Alpha Centauri B og en nyopdaget planet, der flyder ind i billedet. Denne planet, der er lige så tung som Jorden, er den tætteste kendte exoplanet og den letteste, der nogensinde er fundet omkring en stjerne mage til Solen. |
