Examples of Plumes in a Sentence

  1. Hunter Waite:

We didn't necessarily have to land ; we could sit there and and sample to study quite a bit about these ocean worlds just from flying through the material that comes out of the interior. That's what the plumes are about on Europa as well. It's that connection to the interior ocean.

It does not miss us; and those who are near us, when the first strangeness of vacancy wears off, will not miss us much either.
