"It turns out that roughly 68% of the universe is dark energy."

The solar wind is a stream of charged particles released from the upper atmosphere of the Sun, called the corona. This plasma mostly consists of electrons, protons and alpha particles with kinetic energy between 0.5 and 10 keV."

"kinetic energy, form of energy that an object or a particle has by reason of its motion. If work, which transfers energy, is done on an object by applying a net force, the object speeds up and thereby gains kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is a property of a moving object or particle and depends not only on its motion but also on its mass."

"The Sun orbits the center of the Milky Way, bringing with it the planets, asteroids, comets, and other objects in our solar system. Our solar system is moving with an average velocity of 450,000 miles per hour (720,000 kilometers per hour)."

"The total energy of a planet in an elliptical orbit depends only on the length a of the semimajor axis, not on the length of the minor axis:"

"The kinetic energy of a satellite in a circular orbit is half its gravitational energy and is positive instead of negative. When U and K are combined, their total is half the gravitational potential energy."
