GAIA libera imagens misteriosas no Instagram

A famosa dupla de trance GAIA, formada por Armin Van Buuren e Benno de Goeji, liberou imagens com 4 luas de júpiter em seu Instagram.

A conta no Instagram do GAIA, projeto formado por Armin Van Buuren e Benno de Goeji, foi reativada nesta semana com uma série de imagens ainda misteriosas, o que fez com que fãs em todo planeta especulassem um novo trabalho da dupla, que não lança nenhum projeto desde sua aparição no ADE do ano passado.

Os 4 novos posts mostram os nomes das atuais luas galileanas de Júpiter: Metis, Adrastea, Amalthea e Thebe. Todas as imagens possuem uma descrição relacionada aos satélites. Confira abaixo:

Thebe is one of the four known small moons that orbit closer to Jupiter than the four vastly larger Galilean moons. These eight are the only known “regular” Jovian satellites, which means that they orbit Jupiter in the same direction as the planet’s rotation (prograde orbits), and that their orbits are almost circular and in the same plane as Jupiter’s equator. Thebe is the planet’s seventh largest moon, with a mean radius of about 49 km. At a distance of about 138 thousand miles (222 thousand kilometers) from Jupiter, Thebe whips once around the planet in a little over 16 hours. #GAIA #MoonsOfJupiter

Orbiting within Io’s orbit, which is the innermost of the four largest moons of Jupiter (called the Galilean moons), are four smaller moons named Metis, Adrastea, Amalthea, and Thebe. Amalthea is the largest within this grouping with a mean radius of about 83.5 ± 2.4 km. Amalthea orbits 181,400 km from its parent planet, Jupiter. Amalthea takes 0.498 Earth days to complete one orbit. #GAIA #MoonsOfJupiter

Orbiting within Io’s orbit, which is the innermost of the four largest moons of Jupiter (called the Galilean moons), are four smaller moons named Metis, Adrastea, Amalthea, and Thebe. All the moons within this grouping are oddly shaped, lacking either the mass and/or fluidity of composition to pull themselves into a reasonably spherical shape. The Galileo spacecraft has revealed some surface features, including impact craters, hills and valleys. Metis is the third largest within this grouping and it has a mean radius of about 13.3 miles (21.5 kilometers). Metis orbits 128,000 km from its parent planet Jupiter and it takes 0.295 Earth days to complete one orbit. #GAIA #MoonsOfJupiter

Adrastea is the smallest within this group having a mean radius of about 8.2 ± 2.0 km. Adrastea orbits 129,000 km from its parent planet Jupiter and it takes 0.298 Earth days for Adrastea to complete one orbit. The rotational period for Adrastea is unknown, but its orbital period is 7 hours. #GAIA #MoonsOfJupiter

GAIA sempre ofereceu ao seu público um trance experimental, permeando suas melodias no underground. O projeto ‘Moons of Jupiter’, como divulgado no ano passado, se encontra em standby desde então. Seriam essas 4 luas, as possíveis tracks do novo EP da dupla? Só o tempo nos dirá a resposta.
