Stability of the Solar System that keeps the far side of the Moon away from the Earth. Mercury is in a 3:2 spin–orbit resonance. The planets' orbits are chaotic over longer timescales, such that the whole Solar System possesses a Lyapunov time in the range of 2–230 million years. In all cases this means that the position of a planet along its orbit ultimately becomes impossible to predict with any certainty (so, for example, the timing of winter and summer become uncertain), but in some cases the orbits themselves may change dramatically. Such chaos manifests most strongly as changes in eccentricity, with some planets' orbits
Solar art prize Solar art prize The Solar art prize is an annual art exhibition hosted by the Royal Society of the Arts, South Australia. The prize was established by Pip Fletcher in 2010, and has consistently invited artists to respond to the subject of climate change. The event's recurring theme is "Caring for Our Planet". Artists are invited to submit new works for consideration, and various prizes are offered. Prizes include cash and sponsor offerings, including tens of thousands of dollars in credits to be redeemed on solar power system services and installations, which include solar panels, hot water systems and batteries.
