Scientists (astronomers) can make Jupiter appear bigger by using telescopes from Earth or they can build rockets and send instruments to Jupiter and make them fly past the planet or even orbit the planet. These instruments are able to view Jupiter and its environs from close up and send this information back to Earth. One such Jupiter probe even sent a capsule into the planet's atmosphere to retrieve information.

∙ 13y agoloads of reasons. these are just a few!
- the size- its even smaller than our moon!
- it's collision with Neptune- that's not normal for a planet!
- Also the finding of Eris- it was bigger then Pluto but not one of the nine planets!
- Pluto was so far away from the sun.
Those are just a few answers

What is the make up of Jupiter?
stop cheating and go reasearch!
Scientifically how was Jupiter created theoretically?
As with ALL the bodies in our solar system (and others for that matter) Jupiter was formed when clouds of spinning dust and gas collapsed onto themselves and clumped together to form a spherical body. Jupiter, however, consists almost entirely of gas. Some scientists have speculated that Jupiter is a failed star, since most of it is made up of the same materials as the sun, but it never reached the appropriate mass to start nuclear fusion.
What is the terrain ground of Jupiter made up of?
It is made up of gases
What is Jupiter's surface material?
Jupiter's texture is very gaseous. This is because Jupiter is a planet made up of a lot of different gasses.
How is Jupiter's surface?
Jupiter has no surface. It is a gas world. It is made up of gas, and thus, you cannot land on it.
How are zoos useful for scientists?
Zoos allows scientists to study animals from up-close in a controlled environment. This has the downside that zoos do not provide anything close to a natural habitat, so animal behavior is inherently deviant from what it would be in the wild.

Did any satellites or robots see Jupiter close-up?
yes
What was the first thing to visit Jupiter?
The first spacecraft to visit Jupiter was Pioneer 10 in 1973. The craft took the first close up pictures of Jupiter.
How close are the scientists to coming up with answer for global warming?
i have no idea x
Where can you see close up photos of Jupiter?
You can go to www.timeforkids.com/hubble P.S. Hubble is a space telescope.
What are scientists who dig dinosaurs called?
Scientists who dig up, identify, and study all forms of prehistoric creature are called Paleontologists.
What scientists looks up insects?
Entomology is the study of insects. An entomologist is a scientist who studies insects.
What space shuttle was the first to get close up pictures of Jupiter?
it wasn't a space shuttle it was a satellite and it was sputnik IV
When scientists sent up rubbish into a black hole did it close it?
No rubbish has been sent into a black hole.
How does a microscope help scientists learn about different types of cells?
they can see them up close and can identify the cells.
Did a robot ever land on Jupiter?
No. Nothing can land on Jupiter as it does not have a solid surface. The Galileo spacecraft orbited Jupiter from 1995 until 2002. In 1995 an atmospheric probe with the Galileo mission entered Jupiter's atmosphere to study it. The probe eventually melted as it entered the superheated layers deep in Jupiter's atmosphere. In 2002 the main Galileo space probe burned up in Jupiter's atmosphere at the end of its mission.
