What is is the distance between Jupiter and the sun in Astronomical Units?
1 Astronomical Unit (1.00 AU) is the mean distance between Earth and the sun. 1 AU is approximately equal to 149,600,000 km Saturn's mean distance from the sun is 9.529 AU Saturn's maximum distance from the sun is 10.044 AU Saturn's minimum distance from the sun is 9.014 AU
Can an asteroid be bigger than Jupiter?
No, an asteroid cannot be bigger than Jupiter. Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, while asteroids are much smaller rocky bodies that vary in size from a few meters to several hundred kilometers in diameter.
Jupiter revolves continuously around the sun in an orbit that requires nearly 12 earth years to complete.
Jupiter also rotates on its axis once every 10 hours--less than half an earth day.
No, it is not possible for people to live on Jupiter. Jupiter is a gas giant with extreme atmospheric conditions, including high levels of radiation, strong winds, and no solid surface to stand on. Additionally, the planet's intense gravity would make it impossible for humans to survive there.
No you cant go to Jupiter because it is made of gas and if you went there its density is less then water so you would sink right down to the middle where you would burn. also you can not go to Jupiter because it is in outer space and there is no oxygen also it is to far away from the sun so you would freeze and we do not have the technology to go that far out in space.
What is the coldest part of Jupiter?
The coldest part of Jupiter is its upper atmosphere, which can reach temperatures as low as -145°C (-234°F). This frigid temperature is due to the distance from the Sun and the lack of a solid surface on the planet to retain heat.
What is the driving distance from Somerville New Jersey to Jupiter Floirda?
Somervile NJ to Jupiter, FL, USA 1,183 Miles-- about 18 hours 28 mins
Could people breathe on Jupiter?
No, humans cannot breathe on Jupiter.
If you were in the atmosphere of the planet Jupiter, you could not breathe it. There is little or no oxygen, only gases that are mostly toxic to humans. They include hydrogen and methane.
There is also no surface to stand on. The gases in the upper clouds are very cold and thin, and the denser atmosphere below is too dense and hot.
Which planet can be classified as a lesser planet?
All of the eight planets are all lesser planets but Pluto isn't a planet so it isn't a lesser planet
What is the daytime and nighttime temperature of Jupiter?
Daytime temperatures on Jupiter can reach up to 1,340 degrees Celsius (2,440 degrees Fahrenheit) due to the planet's strong internal heat source. Nighttime temperatures can drop to around -145 degrees Celsius (-234 degrees Fahrenheit) as the planet cools off.
What is Jupiter's diameter compared to earth?
Jupiter is about 300 times more massive than earth and has a diameter about 10x the size of the earth's.
What supplies would you need to live on planet Jupiter?
Since the planet Jupiter is not at all suited to human life, you would need a complete life support system to live there, and even then it would be extremely difficult due to the high gravity. You might have to live inside a large tank of water, with scuba gear, so that your bouyancy would counteract the gravity. Obviously this would be very hard to do for any prolonged period. More likely, a human presence on Jupiter (if such a thing should ever be thought important enough to justify the extreme effort that it would require) would involve genetically engineered people with special adaptations to the high gravity - and even they would still need a complete life support system.
Jupiter is slowly shrinking in size due to its cooling process, but it will not significantly change in size within our lifetimes. It will continue to lose about 2 centimeters in diameter every year.
Jupiters orbital speed in relation to the sun is 13.07 km/sec on average.
What probes flew past Jupiter and other planets before heading outward to deep space?
The Pioneer 10 and Pioneer 11 probes flew past Jupiter before continuing their journey outward to deep space. The Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 probes also conducted flybys of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune before heading towards interstellar space.
What is Jupiters smallest moon called?
There are two possible answers:
S/2003 J 12 the 16th moon of Jupiter
S/2003 J 9 the 56th moon of Jupiter
They are both about 1 kilometer in diameter.
How far is the asteroid belt from Jupiter?
The asteroid belt is located between Mars and Jupiter, so it is closer to Jupiter than to Earth. The average distance between Jupiter and the asteroid belt is approximately 329 million miles (529 million kilometers).
What is the main gas in Jupiter's atmosphere?
The primarily element of Jupiter is hydrogen but a quarter of Jupiter's mass is helium. There must be some rocky core of heavier elements, but it is expected to be small. I am only in the 5th grade
Is Jupiter's symbol a number 4?
The astrological symbol for Jupiter is more like a 2 morphing into a 4. If that's the symbol you're thinking of then you're right.
What is Jupiter's rate of revolution?
Jupiter's rate of revolution, or its orbital period, is approximately 11.86 Earth years. This is the time it takes for Jupiter to complete one orbit around the Sun.
Can Jupiter be been seen at night without a telescope?
Yes. Even on slightly cloudy nights it is possible to see Jupiter with the naked eye.
At the moment, Jupiter can be seen to the SW of the Moon and is clearly visible without binoculars.
Jove's day means Thursday(jueves)
Jueves is a day honoring Jupiter or Jove, father&& king of the Gods.
Shaxii((:
Which is longer a day on earth or a day on Jupiter?
A day on Earth because a day on Earth is 24 hours and a day on Jupiter is 10 hours
