What is the angular diameter of Saturn (in degrees) as seen from the surface of Dione?   Note: Necessary data can be found in this Celestial Profile and in this table. Hint: Use the small-angle formula, angular diameter (in arc seconds) 2.06 ✕ 105  =  linear diameter distance
Although Deimos is smaller than Phobos, Deimos has more debris on its surface. This difference in the two moons is probably the result of   a. the greater number of impact craters on Deimos.   b. Martian gravity, which is strong enough to pull debris off the surface of Phobos.   c. the lack of volcanic activity on the surface of Phobos.   d. the comparatively weaker gravity on Deimos.   e. the slower rotation rate of Deimos on its axis.
After Ceres was promoted to a dwarf planet, we now recognize the largest known asteroid to be Vesta, with a mass of 2.67 × 1020 kg and a diameter ranging from 578 km to 458 km. Assuming that Vesta is spherical with radius 520 km, find the approximate escape velocity from its surface.
