How did Jupiter get so many moons?

Answer 1

8 of Jupiter's 63+ moons are large and fairly spherical, indicating that they may have formed around the planet during the creation of the solar system. Most of the others are in very irregular orbits that suggest they are asteroids captured by Jupiter's gravity (especially from the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter).

Answer 2

Jupiter likely captured most of its moons from the surrounding debris in the early solar system. Some moons may have formed from the material around Jupiter. Jupiter's powerful gravity also contributed to the accumulation of numerous moons over time.

Answer 3

It has a large a large gravitational pull because its so big. and it pulled in those 30 sumthin moons.
