就它们与恒星的距离而言，其石质行星核恐怕需要极其长的成型时间，以至于在星核能够俘获气体前周围的气态盘恐怕就已经消散殆尽了。
At their distances from the star, the rocky planetary core would have taken so long to form that the gaseous disk would have dissipated before the core could attract the gas.
望远镜观测通常仅仅能提供关于某颗系外行星的基本信息，诸如最小质量、与母恒星的距离、以及是否更可能是气态的或者像地球那样是岩石质的。
Telescopic surveys usually reveal just basic information about an extrasolar planet's minimum mass, its distance from its parent star, and whether it is likely to be gassy or rocky, like Earth.
目前与恒星相伴的行星都是那场角力中的幸存者，并不能说明实际上有多少气态巨行星形成。
That's because planets bound to a parent star would only reflect the survivors, not how many gas giant planets actually formed.
与水星总有一半固定地面对太阳相似，该行星总是始终保持一面朝向恒星，使得星球的一半永久处于阳光之中，而另一半则永久位于黑暗。
Just as Mercury is locked facing the sun, the planet is tidally locked to its star, so that one side basks in perpetual daylight, while the other side remains in darkness.

Speaking at an international forum dedicated to the search for extraterrestrial life, Finkelstein said 10 percent of the known planets circling SUNS in the galaxy resemble Earth.
这300多颗日外恒星中大多数被发现的原因都是由于他们自身位置会受到巨型行星（大小与木星类似的行星）的公转影响而产生微小摆动。
The majority of the more than 300 "extrasolar planets" now known were spotted by watching the tiny wobble in stars' position as enormous, Jupiter-sized planets swung around them.
行星状星云实际上是一些即将消亡的恒星抛射出的气体外壳，在学术上与行星并没有什么关系。
These nebulae, which are not technically related to planets, are gas clouds forced outward by a dying star.
内侧行星带距离它的恒星为3个天文单位——或者相当于太阳系中的行星带与太阳的距离。
The inner belt orbits at a distance of about 3 astronomical units from its star — or about the same position as the asteroid belt in our own solar system.
通过哈勃行星分析行星的色谱，科洛·科特和他的小组计算出这些恒星的形成大约在1亿年前突然爆发起来，通过在宇宙学历史上与最近的大事件的比较。
From a Hubble analysis of the stars' colors, Crockett and his team calculated that the star-formation boom started about a billion years ago, a comparatively recent event in cosmological history.
他们还发现了另一颗比地球体积大的行星，开普勒69，它围绕的主恒星与太阳非常相似。
They also found a somewhat larger than our earth planet around Kepler 69, a star very similar to the sun.
科学家以此显示环绕恒星的目标，并显示此为通常与行星有关的巨大的红色尘环的一部分，这样，它少有可能为一颗矮星。
The scientists used that to show that the object orbited a star and was part of a massive red dust ring which is usually associated with planets - making it less likely to be a dwarf star.

相似地，恒星气盘的大小与寿命，和与此相关的行星形成效率， 主要取决于恒星发源地内动态交互作用所扮演的角色。
Similarly, the size and longevity of stellar disks, and thus the efficiency of planet formation, depend crucially on the role played by dynamical interactions in the stellar womb.
