What is Jupiters surface made up of?

Answer 1

The Jovian Planets do not have an "surface" as we know it. Since they are composed primarily of hydrogen, ammonia, and methance, these gases gradually compress/condense to a suspended soupy mixture thousands of kilometres below the cloud tops. As one goes deeper, this "soupy" mixture gradually becomes a vast ocean of liquid hydrogen made possible under massive pressure. One can still go deeper and the liquid hydrogen starts to behave like a metal under the fantastic pressure of 10's of thousands of kilometres of atmosphere. That's why Jupiter, especially, as a strong magnetic field. This vast ball of rapidly spinning liquid metallic hydrogen acts like a giant dynamo! It is presumed that each the Jovian Planets each have a rocky core roughly the size of earth.

Answer 2

Jupiter does not have a solid surface like Earth. Instead, its surface is composed of layers of gas, primarily hydrogen and helium, with traces of other elements like water, methane, and ammonia. The planet's atmosphere transitions into a liquid metallic hydrogen layer deeper down.

Answer 3

Its made of gases, dust, and there's a wind on Jupiter it blows the dust. That's what Jupiter is mostly made of :D

Answer 4

jupiter is a gas giant so there is no land,it is made up of hydrogen and helium. plus its has storms on it so its pretty much impossible to live on jupiter

Answer 5

the surface of the planet Jupiter is mainly made up of gas. it contains more amout of helium and hydrogen
