thats a good observation but, even though correct, it's just an illusion. they only behave the way they do today because of their extremely violent past, and won't stay this way forever. nothings permanent.

I hope you keep learning. I don’t think “mysterious” is a good way to describe the interaction of the planets in the solar system.

​@@Itstheclaw Very true. Some go kill a dozen strangers because god told them to... Or, in the days past, burn people alive or torture them. Or, like one little German dude with a square mustache loved to say "Gott mit uns" ("God with us") while slaughtering Russians and Jews by the millions. Considering that god let him do it, then god was indeed with him on that. Although, I'd rather there not be any god than a god like this.

Jupiter’s upper atmosphere is about 90% hydrogen and 10% helium by volume. Since helium atoms are more massive than hydrogen ones, Jupiter’s atmosphere is approximately 75% hydrogen and 24% helium by mass with remaining one percent consisting of other unique elements. Jupiter is perpetually covered with clouds composed of ammonia crystals and possibly ammonium hydrosulfide.

It’s 2017 and it could be the year of the asteroids because once again, for the forth time this year, an asteroid, this time named 2017 BS32 has gone by Earth. On February 2, 2017, 2017 BS32 narrowly shaved our planet with very little time to prepare. This once again brings out the big worry about the asteroids that we don’t catch on our screens. It is almost certain that in the future an asteroid, perhaps the size of New York City, will smash into our planet. When will it happen, well, we do not know, but wouldn’t it be nice if we at least had a chance of spotting it heading in our direction. it returns closer in 2029, and a potential impact 2036 and 2068, impact is not definite but it is so close it could hit your gps satellites , i have several very viable ideas on how to prevent this, a craft rendezvous with it with drilling rig and big hoover bag, bits are drilled off and stored in bag, when full it is shot on ahead and exploded creating a dust cloud that slows the thing down and thus alters its orbit, and if given enough time it only needs slight orbital change no harder than the stuff that they do to send probes to the planets already , or coat it in chalk one side coal dust the other and let solar heating shift it slowly . the key is advanced warning really, size is not so much a problem, but the last thing we should do is nuke it, we then have many rocks to track!, stay safe asteroidapophis.com/asteroid-2017-bs32/

A star requires an absolute minimum of 79 Jupiter masses in order for hydrogen to fuse into helium and make the star shine.

I'm curious.

Not all that are attracted will hit Jupiter. Depending on distance and timing and other factors isn't it just as likely that objects that would otherwise pass get turned into our solar system by Jupiter?

[@PepsiManX360]
