But some scientists argue that extremely large gaseous bodies, even larger than Jupiter, may be stars that failed to evolve and so are not, strictly speaking, planets.

They appealed also to the speed and expansion of gaseous bodies, to whirlwinds and inflated balloons.

Predominantly, however, it was Maxwell and Boltzmann, working independently, who reached similar conclusions as to the statistical nature of gaseous bodies.

Again, a very sudden impact of cold upon my gaseous body would certainly kill me.

The discoverers do not know if the Pegasus planet is a solid or gaseous body, or if it is alone or has planetary companions.

They believed the Milky Way was the entire universe, and that the blurry masses called nebulae seen through telescopes were insubstantial gaseous bodies.

Both of the newly found planets are assumed to be largely gaseous bodies, like Jupiter, but they could have solid-surface moons that might be more hospitable to life.

The density of other outer planets, mostly gaseous bodies, is less than that of water.

Lane was particularly interested in astronomy, and was the first to perform a mathematical analysis of the Sun as a gaseous body.

The two detected Jupiter-class objects are almost certainly huge gaseous bodies, presumably beyond the so-called habitable zone around a Sun-like star.
