Examples of occultations in a Sentence

  1. Tyler Robinson:

    Occultations in the solar system and in the transits of exoplanets are perfectly complementary, in both cases, the light that is transmitted through the atmosphere carries with it the spectral signatures of whatever gases, hazes, and clouds might be present in the planet's atmosphere.

  2. Tyler Robinson:

    Most solar system worlds have clouds or hazes of some types in their atmosphere, by studying occultations — by, say, Venus or Saturn's atmosphere — in the solar system, we have an exciting opportunity to explore the variety of ways hazes and clouds can sculpt transit spectra.
