Jupiter The Planetary Society

Jupiter The Planetary Society Jupiter, our largest planet, teaches us how planetary systems evolve. its four planet like moons make it a planetary system of its own. Jupiter is our solar system’s largest planet. and it has a huge storm called the great red spot! discover what makes this planet a gas giant. then learn about its moons and rings and the spacecraft that have traveled to jupiter.

Jupiter The Planetary Society The first detailed observations of jupiter were made by galileo galilei in 1610 with a small, homemade telescope. more recently, this planet has been studied by orbiters, probes, and spacecraft passing by on their way to other worlds. Jupiter is the fifth planet from the sun, and the largest in the solar system. it is a gas giant with a mass nearly 2.5 times that of all the other planets in the solar system combined and slightly less than one thousandth the mass of the sun. Jupiter, the most massive planet of the solar system and the fifth in distance from the sun. it is one of the brightest objects in the night sky; only the moon, venus, and sometimes mars are more brilliant. Jupiter, our largest planet, teaches us how planetary systems evolve. its four planet like moons make it a planetary system of its own. io, one of jupiter's four galilean moons, is known for its explosivity. europa is the sixth largest moon in the solar system and jupiter’s fourth largest satellite.

Over eight years around jupiter, galileo transformed how we understand jupiter and its moons, revealing a powerful and dynamic planetary system, uncovering evidence for oceans hidden beneath. Jupiter is a world of extremes. it's the largest planet in our solar system – if it were a hollow shell, 1,000 earths could fit inside. it's also the oldest planet, forming from the dust and gases left over from the sun's formation 4.6 billion years ago. Discover what makes this planet a gas giant. then learn about its moons and rings and the spacecraft that have traveled to jupiter. dr. bruce betts is chief scientist and lightsail program manager for the planetary society, the world's largest space interest group. Dr. bruce betts is a planetary scientist who loves teaching people about planets, space, and the night sky in fun and entertaining ways. he has lots of college degrees, lots of big dogs, and two sons.
