Do Jupiter have craters?
While Jupiter is composed mainly of gasses there is a solid core at the center of the planet roughly the same size as the earth. The surface of this core is believed to be composed of glacier ice. Therfore Jupiter does have landforms.
How many craters are on Saturn?
Jupiter has such a dense atmosphere that anything entering it at high speed will burn up before reaching any solid surface where it could create a crater. In fact, it is not known if Jupiter even HAS a solid surface at all! The pieces of the comet that did hit Jupiter's atmosphere left some pretty amazi ng perturbations in that atmosphere as we saw from pictures taken with telescopes (including the Hubble Space Telescope) shortly after the collisions. Note: the comet had already broken up into many pieces before colliding with Jupiter.
What has over 60 satelites and rings although none of its rings are visible?
Jupiter is a planet that has over 60 satellites and rings that are not visible.
When are craters most visible on the moon?
Craters on the moon are most visible when the sunlight hits them at a low angle, such as during the waxing or waning phases of the moon. This creates long shadows that make the crater edges more prominent.
Why does the moon have big craters?
Mostly from asteroid impacts. The moon has no atmosphere to impede an asteroid's approach, or to disturb the land contours after it has landed, so the craters remain permanently visible.
Why are there craters on Jupiter?
Craters on Jupiter are typically caused by impacts from asteroids or comets. Jupiter's strong gravitational pull can attract these objects, leading to collisions with its surface. The planet's thick atmosphere can also cause meteors to explode before impact, creating visible scars on its surface.

Why do moon craters remain visible longer than earth craters?
There is no significant amount of erosion on the Moon.
What planet has the most visible craters?
Mercury is the planet with the most visible craters in our solar system. Its surface is heavily pocked with impact craters due to its lack of atmosphere to protect it from incoming space debris.

What is visible on the moon?
There are several lunar features that are visible to the naked eye, and more are visible with even a very small telescope.The craters are probably the most obvious; circular impact craters caused by the collision of some very large asteroids or comets have created circular mountain ranges that are hundreds of miles in diameter. There are craters in craters, craters ON craters, and chains of craters. Because the Moon lacks an atmosphere, there are no erosive forces to break down and hide the craters (as there is here on Earth) and so the only thing wearing away the old craters are ..... new craters!Lunar craters are usually named for astronomers and scientists.The other major features of the Moon are the maria, or seas. Originally believed to be oceans and seas of water by classical observers, we now believe that they were made by lava flows.
What has over 60 satelites and rings although none of its rings are visible?
Jupiter is a planet that has over 60 satellites and rings that are not visible.
What is the scientific question about the planet Jupiter?
How often is Jupiter visible in the nighttime sky
When will planets be visible in Florida?
Venus Jupiter
This planet has belts of visible clouds?
Jupiter.
What would you take with you to Jupiter?
Nothing. Jupiter has no visible surface, so why bother packing my bags?
Is the planet Jupiter sometimes visible from earth?
yes
