What else can I help you with?
Do comets orbit Jupiter?
Yes, some comets have been observed to orbit Jupiter. These comets can either be captured by Jupiter's gravity and become temporary moons, or have their orbits altered by Jupiter's gravitational pull.
Did Several comets collide with Jupiter due to its strong magnetic field?
Comets do not collide with Jupiter due to its strong magnetic field. Instead, Jupiter's gravitational pull is typically what causes comets to collide with the planet. Jupiter's magnetic field is indeed strong, but it does not directly attract comets to collide with it.
Do comets orbit mars and Jupiter?
No. Comets orbit the sun. Many asteroids orbit the sun in between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
How often do comets crash into Jupiter?
Shoemaker-Levy9 crashed in to Jupiter in 1994.
Are there comets between Jupiter and Neptune?
yes
What Jupiter fact start with a c?
comets have slammed into jupiter...one severely did in 2009
Jupiter is good for?
The planet Jupiter helps to shield earth a little from being struck by wandering objects in space like comets.
Is there a shield around Jupiter that protects it from meteors and comets?
Any meteor or comet will burn up in Jupiter's incredibly thick atmosphere.
What are the objects that are found in a belt orbiting the sun between mars and Jupiter?
asteroids and comets
How many comets hit Jupiter per year?
The comets orbiting Jupitor in the Kuiper Belt are controlled by Jupiters gravity pull. It was thought that Jupitor would keep Earth safe from these many massive comets but it is now known that Jupitor does not always cross the path of them and they get out of the orbit as was the case with Showemaker Levy-9.
What would happen if there is spark in Jupiter's atmosphere?
nothing would happen because comets hit Jupiter when it is hot and it does not burn up it. if Jupiter was a a bit bigger it would start to glow.
Why the Jupiter have rings?
it has rings because of it magnetite pull it collects things like comets and glacirs.
