Having an extremely thick atmosphere seems conducive to forming a large core since the atmosphere would slow down large objects. Once the core gets large it can absorb even larger solid objects, and thereby attracting even more gaseous material.

Earth has the water. But it took our moon to stir it up. We are more like a dual planet system. Earth's waters are pushed and pulled by tidal changes. This acts to accelerate biologoicial change ( imaging how dull would be the waters without tides ) Amazing planet we have....

Jupiter must have a core to have such a gravitational pull, if you will. Also it must either be very large or very dense.

How can Saturn stop Jupiter from traveling in and then out? I understand how it might stop the in but not back out.

[@cleon_teunissen]

I googled with these search terms: migration of Jupiter There is a wikipedia article specifically about the theory of migration of jupiter. The title of that wikipedia article is: 'grand tack hypothesis'. ('tack' as in tacking by a sailboat) Part of the hypothesis is that at the time the quantity of gas in the Solar System was so large that it was a significant factor in the orbital mechanics of the solar system. According to that wikipedia article: for an extended stretch of time Saturn and Jupiter were in a 2:3 resonance. A side-effect of such a resonance can be that certain effects accumulate, rather than averaging out. The hypothesis is, I gather, that Saturn and Jupiter affected the motion of large amounts of gas, which in turn affected the planets, in a cumulative way. I assume the plausibility of the scenario has been verified with computer simulations. Such simulations do not prove that the proposed grand tack actually happened, the purpose of the simulations is to show that given the physics of interacting celestial bodies such a course of events is a possible one.

[@billygoat520]

I don't understand the origin of the radiation that makes Io so difficult. Does Jupiter's magnetosphere generate electromagnetic waves or distort them?

[@TedMishler]

The blue seas we see, maybe the storms they see in infrared are actually strong Arora? If so, then maybe the blue color indicates water there, and if there is any way we could probe the planet up close, wouldn't it be fun to find the areas there that we could go, and see up close just what's on the vast seas so huge that many earths could fit inside the polar region... If those storms are actually due to Jupiter's aurora, then there still might be a chance at glancing at another world than ours, and perhaps visit there, if we could figure out how to land there, and take off back to space too... What if there are hundreds of islands on Jupiter's seas, but hidden due too the approximately 16,000 miles of distance from junos cameras, and the clouds...

When En-Ki's expedition to Earth to verify his father in law's findings of GOLD in abundance he had to STOP at a spot, between Jupiter and Mars to REPLENISH their WATER/FUEL because they had used so much blasting their way through the Kuiper belt. His father in Law had used nuclear weapons to BLAST a way through so he didn't NEED to stop b4 landing on Earth (Ki). An earlier expedition of 50 "heroes" had PERISHED because the crew and vehicle had succumbed to the HIGH LEVELS of radiation they had NOT expected..

How all the planets are in ball shape???

[@fennelfin]

It's because all of the stuff is collected on this singular spot (the core), and when it gets big enough, it looks very circular. Things are always pulled toward the center, so they usually don't stand up very high (like it would if it was a cube. The corners would be under a significant amount of pressure and collapse, turning it circular again). Hope this helped :D

[@ConcreteLand]

I've heard estimates that over time people have worshipped at least 8000 different gods, but if you only consider gods from extant religions the should be at least 3000 of them around. Not all of them of course have a hand in creation, but some do to a varying degree, so let's just guesstimate that at least 10% of them participated in creating or being Jupiter. Which one of the 300 gods do I thank?

[@Vegitobluuuuu]

@@Greippi10 out of all of these thousands of people claimed to be God no one didn’t resurrect from the dead or cure the blind, or did miracles that still happen today. Only Jesus Christ of Nazareth did all that. He rose from the dead and as far as I know out of the big religions today nobody in their book claimed to be God only Jesus Christ claimed that in the Bible. Nobody dared to do that only Jesus Christ did. Oh and lastly if you tell me these people call themselves God then I want to see them doing the impossible like Jesus Christ did. If one only one dies and after 3 days rises from the dead I will call him God and follow them , how about that
