Planet Jupiter

NASA has sent spacecraft to Jupiter a total of nine times. These missions include flyby missions like Pioneer 10 and 11, Voyager 1 and 2, Galileo orbiter, Juno orbiter, and the upcoming Europa Clipper mission.

Mercury is the first, nearest, closest planet to the sun. Then comes Venus, Earth, Mars and Jupiter. Followed by Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Pluto is considered a "Dwarf" planet, not a real planet, more like a moon than a planet.

Jupiter is located between the planets Mars and Saturn in our solar system.

Yes, you could breath BUT Jupiter's atmosphere can not support human life, It is mostly made of molecular hydrogen and helium in roughly solar proportions; other chemical compounds are present only in small amounts and include methane, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and water.

If your question means 'Which moon orbits furthest away from Jupiter', the answer is Sinope. Sinope orbits Jupiter on a high eccentricity and high inclination retrograde orbit. However, given its mean inclination and different colour, Sinope could be also an independent object, captured independently, unrelated to the collision and break-up at the origin of the group, which maymake this not Jupiter's moon, but that is very unlikely. Sinope has an estimated diameter of 38 km. The moon is also red.

The angle between the line from Earth to Jupiter and the line from Earth to the Sun when Jupiter is at opposition is 180 degrees. This is because Jupiter, Earth, and the Sun are aligned in a straight line during opposition, with Earth in the middle.

The rocks between Mars and Jupiter are known as the asteroid belt. Many of the asteroids are grouped into families. Examples of asteroid families include Flora, Eunoma, Koronis, Eos and Themis.

Jupiter's strong gravity and immense size make it difficult for a spaceship to achieve escape velocity needed to overcome its gravitational pull. Additionally, Jupiter's thick atmosphere creates drag that further hinders spacecraft from leaving its orbit.

The four largest moons of Jupiter, known as the Galilean moons, in order of size from largest to smallest are: Ganymede, Callisto, Io, and Europa. Ganymede is the largest moon in the solar system, even larger than the planet Mercury.

Jupiter has an equitorial diameter of 142,984km. However, you should know that Jupiter, like most planets, is NOT a sphere; a diameter taken across the equator line is significantly longer than a diameter measured from pole to pole.

Yes, water is present on Jupiter in the form of water vapor in its atmosphere. However, due to Jupiter's extreme temperatures and pressure, water exists in a molecular form rather than as liquid or ice on its surface.

"Jupiter's Eye" is a term used to describe a phenomenon called the Great Red Spot on Jupiter. It is a persistent high-pressure region in the planet's atmosphere, resulting in a distinct reddish coloration and a swirling storm system that has been observed for centuries.

Jupiter does not have sandstorms like those found on Earth. Jupiter's atmosphere is made up of mainly hydrogen and helium gases, with no solid surface for sandstorms to occur. Instead, Jupiter's atmosphere experiences powerful winds and storm systems, such as the Great Red Spot.

There is hardly any water in Jupiter's vast atmosphere making humidty almost zero. So astronomers don't exactly have a humidity for Jupiter.

BY the way, if you are interested in Jupiter, Mission Juno will have outcomes in august 2016.

The US space agency's data from a planetary missions shows what appears to be a large body of water beneath Jupiter's ice-covered moon Europa. Similar deposits are thought to be present on Ganymede and Callisto.

Like all space travel, with today's technology, it depends on when you attempt this and how much you are willing to spend. An estimate of the average time at a low cost would be two years to six years depending on the position of the planets in their orbits with respect to one another. What is not possible is a couple of weeks or even months.

Jupiter has been known since ancient times, being visible to the naked eye in the night sky. It was named after the king of the Roman gods and has been observed by various civilizations dating back to at least the Bronze Age.

The jovian planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune) are named after the Roman god Jupiter, who is the king of the gods. This naming convention reflects the grand and powerful nature of these gas giant planets, similar to the grandeur of the king of the gods in Roman mythology.

A year on Jupiter, also known as its orbital period, is approximately 11.9 Earth years. This is the time it takes for Jupiter to complete one orbit around the Sun.

Since Jupiter is a gas planet, it doesn't have a surface. This means that nothing can land on the planet because there is nothing solid to land on. But Jupiter does have its own strange kind of "weather".

The clouds that make up Jupiter are constantly swirling around the planet, driven by winds that average over 322 kilometers. per hour. The winds create an ever-changing pattern of storms. The most famous of these storms is the Great red spot.

Yes, Jupiter is visible from Wales, as it is one of the brightest objects in the night sky and can be easily spotted with the naked eye. Its visibility may be influenced by factors like light pollution and weather conditions, but on clear nights, it can often be seen in the southern sky.
