This report is on Jupiter. It will cover how big it is, Jupiter’s moons and Jupiter’s rings.
Jupiter is more than twice as massive then the other planets of our solar system combined.
The giant planet’s great red spot is a centuries-old storm bigger than Earth. Jupiter is 11 times larger than earth.
By moons count, Jupiter has between 80 and 95 moons
Io is the most volcanic ally active world in the solar system, with hundreds of volcanoes, some erupting lava fountains dozens of kilometres high.
Europa is thought to have an iron core, a rocky mantle and an ocean of salty water that may be one of the best places to look for life beyond Earth in our solar system.
Ganymede is the largest moon in our solar system and the only moon with its own magnetic field.
Callisto is the most heavily cratered object in our solar system.
Jupiter also has several rings, but unlike the famous rings of Saturn, Jupiter’s rings are very faint and made of dust, not ice. Jupiter’s rings are formed by being hurled up by micro-meteor impacts on Jupiter’s small inner moons and captured into orbit.
