Can a Ganymede-sized moon rotate around a planet with the mass like Uranus (14 to 15 T-masses)?
I need this for the paper I'm writing...
- What about an earth-sized moon?
- How will the primary appear when viewed from the satellite?
- What kind of geological activity, seasons and weather patterns can we expect in such a hypothetical moon?
- How far does this system have to be from a G2 star to maintain liquid water? How about if the pair orbited a K1 star? Assuming tides are present, can liquid water exist in such a moon if the primary were at the fringes of the so-called "habitable zone?" (main world has an almost circular orbit while the moon has a slightly eliptical orbit)
Please feel free to share your insights and opinions. Thanks!
