Did Several comets collide with Jupiter due to its strong magnetic field?
Comets do not collide with Jupiter due to its strong magnetic field. Instead, Jupiter's gravitational pull is typically what causes comets to collide with the planet. Jupiter's magnetic field is indeed strong, but it does not directly attract comets to collide with it.
