Best Answer

Jupiter is a large and massive planet that is thought to have reduced the number of Earth threatening meteors over the years since the solar system was formed. The large gravitational pull of Jupiter can pull these object out of their collision course with Earth, either deflecting their path, consuming them or capturing them as a moon.
