Tycho Brahe (Martian crater) Tycho Brahe (Martian crater) Tycho Brahe is a nearly ovular crater on Mars named after the Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe (1546–1601). It is located in the Cerberus hemisphere around 49.8° south and 213.9° west, in an area which is south of the Martz crater and east of the Hellas Basin. It measures approximately 105 kilometers in diameter from east to west. The name was adopted by IAU's Working Group for Planetary System Nomenclature in 1973. The crater is crossed by Eridania Scopulus, an escarpment. Other nearby named craters are Huggins to the east, far south is Vinogradsky and northwest is
Stellar chemistry in 2009 presents spectroscopic observations of so-called "young stellar objects" viewed in the Large Magellanic Cloud with the Spitzer Space Telescope. This research suggests that water, or, more specifically, ice, plays a large role in the formation of these eventual stars Others are researching much more tangible ideas relating to stars and chemistry. Research published in 2010 studied the effects of a strong stellar flare on the atmospheric chemistry of an Earth-like planet orbiting an M dwarf star, specifically, the M dwarf AD Leonis. This research simulated the effects an observed flare produced by AD Leonis on April 12, 1985
