Jupiter

Jupiter: by Jamie. To spark your interest of Jupiter, I’m going to ask you a quick question: true or false, 1000 earths can fit inside Jupiter. It’s actually false! Jupiter is much bigger than that. If you stuffed as many earths as you could inside the it, the total number of earths would add up to 1300! In my presentation, I’m going to be telling you all about Jupiter’s location, size, the length of it's days and years, it’s geography and more. I’ve also added an extra section about it’s moons

Did you know that Jupiter could hold over 1,200 earth's inside it? That it has 67 moons? Or the fact that “Jupiter” is the name of a Roman god that is in charge of all the other Roman gods? Well you probably don't know as much as you thought you did about Jupiter, all the information you need to know about Jupiter is inside these paragraphs, the red dot, the distance from earth, it's moons, and what a gas planet is. If you've seen a picture of Jupiter you'd know it is very big. If you want to

As the fourth brightest object in the sky, the knowledge of Jupiter has been around and mildly understood since ancient times. The Ancient Romans named the planet after Jupiter, their god of thunder. The oldest know observations of Jupiter date back to the 7th century BCE Babylonians, located within what is now Iraq, and the information written down within the series of cuneiform archives from their astrologers named the Enuma anu Enlil. Meaning ‘In the days of Anu and Enil’, it contains around 70

planet bigger than all of the planets in our solar system combined, except for myself. What am I? Pretty easy! I’m Jupiter, the biggest planet in our solar system! It may seem like an normal and ordinary planet, but in reality, Jupiter is one of the most interesting planets in the galaxy. Do you think that life exists in planets other than Earth? Well, if the atmosphere of Jupiter becomes less violent, simple organisms may form. This is because its form today resembles Earth when it was in its early

from the sun, Jupiter. The Romans named this planet after their god of the sky and thunder. This planet has 318 times as much mass as the earth, and its diameter is 11 times the earth’s diameter. Since this planet is the fastest spinning (rotates in less than 10 hours), it is flattened at the poles and it is bulged at its equator. One Jovian year (the time it takes to orbit the sun), take 11.9 earth years! Jupiter is a gas planet with a possible chance of a core. On the outside of Jupiter, what we can

Jupiter is an influential and beneficial planet to Earth. Jupiter provided early Earth icy materials and later protected us from catastrophic comet collisions. Now that the Juno spacecraft is successfully reaching Jupiter, we will surely know more information on Jupiter about its beginnings and its changes throughout time. If the rocket goes as planned, then Juno will become the second spacecraft to orbit Jupiter, after the Galileo mission that ended in 2003. Galileo focused on the whole Jovian system

appose to the typical power system involving radioisotope decay. Where Jupiter lies relative to the Sun, it receives 25 times less sunlight than Earth receives. Given this lack of sunlight in comparison to Earth, the solar panels for the spacecraft were created to be larger than those used on spacecraft closer to the Sun. There are three solar panels in total, each approximately 60ft long. The spacecraft’s orbit around Jupiter is designed in a way that the solar panels are always orientated in the

Europa: the only other body in the Solar System we know might contain life and a moon of Jupiter. Creating a dedicated orbiter allows continuous observation of such an interesting satellite, and might provide useful information to consider when planning the landing area of future landers on Europa. With a two year mission duration, multi-spectrum imagers, and radar rangefinders, a Europa orbiter could provide valuable information to the scientists of NASA and other space agencies across the world

Review of Literature I. Introduction- History of Jupiter Jupiter is the most massive planet in our solar system. The planet was named after the kings of gods in Roman mythology. In a related way, the ancient Greeks named it after Zeus, the king of the Greek pantheon. Jupiter has helped transform the way we saw the universe in 1610 when Galileo discovered Jupiter's four largest moons. This project will describe Jupiter's characteristics. Some of these characteristics include size, Great Red

repertoire of mysterious tales of the universe. Recently, scientists reasoned out that gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn are formed from little rocks in space, each no more than a foot in circumference. Until recently the formation process these planets was largely unknown to scientists because contemporary planetary models lacked the requisite time believed to be necessary for massive gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn to grow. Consider the fact that the Earth probably took only thirty million years to
