Learn about the latest model of Jupiter's deep atmosphere that reveals how much oxygen the planet contains.
"It really shows how much we still have to learn about planets, even in our own solar system." The post There’s Something Hiding Under Jupiter’s Clouds, Scientists Find appeared first on Futurism.
According to this early data, Jupiter’s equatorial radius was around 44,423 miles (71,492 kilometers), and its polar radius ...
Jupiter has just been put on a cosmic diet. New measurements led by an Israeli team show that the giant planet’s diameter is about 8 kilometers smaller than long‑standing estimates and that its poles ...
New simulations suggest Jupiter holds far more water than once thought, reshaping ideas about how the largest planet formed.
Combined chemical and hydrodynamic modeling offers a powerful tool beyond Jupiter. Scientists can apply similar techniques to Uranus, Neptune, and gas rich exoplanets. Such planets remain difficult to ...
Jupiter’s swirling storms have concealed its true makeup for centuries, but a new model is finally peeling back the clouds.
Thick, swirling clouds cover Jupiter from pole to pole. They hold water like Earth’s clouds, but at far greater density.
An atmospheric study reveals unexpected findings about our largest neighboring planet and the structure of its deep atmosphere.
NASA's James Webb Telescope has captured auroras on Jupiter that have hundreds of times more energy than those here on Earth. Jupiter's auroras are like the "Northern Lights, but way bigger!" NASA ...
Spectacular clouds swirl across the surface of Jupiter. These clouds contain water, just like Earth's, but are much denser on the gas giant—so thick that no spacecraft has been able to measure exactly ...
Using data from NASA's Juno spacecraft, Weizmann Institute of Science researchers make most precise measurement to date, say ...
