Planetary Atmospheres

This dataset contains information about the atmospheric characteristics of various celestial bodies within our solar system, including both planets and moons. It details the composition, pressure, temperature, and specific gases found in their atmospheres, offering insights into their environmental conditions.

  1. Planet: The name of the celestial body, including planets and moons.
  2. Atmospheric Composition: The chemical makeup of the atmosphere, expressed as percentages of different gases.
  3. Surface Pressure (Pa): The atmospheric pressure at the surface of the planet or moon, measured in Pascals.
  4. Temperature (K): The average surface temperature of the planet or moon, stated in Kelvin.
  5. Methane (% by volume): The percentage of methane present in the atmosphere.
  6. Oxygen (% by volume): The percentage of oxygen present in the atmosphere.
  7. Nitrogen (% by volume): The percentage of nitrogen in the atmosphere.
  8. Carbon Dioxide (% by volume): The percentage of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
  9. Hydrogen (% by volume): The percentage of hydrogen in the atmosphere.
  10. Notes: Additional comments or observations about the atmosphere of the celestial body.
