Therefore, the higher the gravity of the nearby planet, the higher the boost will be, and the higher the mass is. 5) a) No, only Earth can hang on to water water it its atmosphere because Titan’s velocity is 3x 10 -11 times greater than its escape velocity. Work shown: b) No, Titan also cannot hang on to atomic hydrogen. Work shown: 4
