Jupiter the Giant Planet - P1

Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest planet within the Solar System. It is a gas giant with a mass slightly less than one-thousandth of the Sun but is two and a half times the mass of all the other planets in our Solar System combined. Jupiter is classified as a gas giant along withSaturn, Uranus and Neptune. Together, these four planets are sometimes referred to as the Jovian or outer planets.The planet was known by astronomers of ancient times and was associated with the mythology and religious beliefs of many cultures. The Roman named the planet after the Roman God Jupiter When viewed from Earth, Jupiter can reach an apparent magnitude of −2.

KurdstanPlanetarium of course 

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@Exchange93 Part 2 is uploaded already and is here as a video response..

[Exchange93]

KurdstanPlanetarium hey where is other parties?

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@Exchange93 it will come today, right now I m trying to upload them...watch out for them

@Iceni77 there may be a huge object holding all that dust together, it may have a surface, but if we are able to land on it, we would just burn up from the friction, its too much gravity holding dust, it generates a lot of friction

[Iceni77]

I still think it's BS that they think Jupiter doesn't have a surface. With all those chemicals and rocks slamming into it for millions of years, there has to be something solid under all those clouds, otherwise it would be formless.... well, unless there's a gravity field in the center but since we still dont' know jack squat about gravity, there's no telling. Regardless, I want to be the first to open up a strip club on Jupiter. All ladies will have to be radiation tolerant though.. hmmm.. lol

One thing I like about Jupiter is that in fact it's moons are just BARELY beyond visible with the naked eyes.

I looked at Jupiter today with some very simple binoculars, and I could actually see those little moons as tiny tiny little dots. Just like a smaller version of what I've seen through a telescope.

I really like this planet :) Good job for this vid!

@KurdstanPlanetarium Thanks for the response,but could you tell me,what kind of effect if any either one's energy could have on our planet while she is shifting.Thank you for the information

[KurdstanPlanetarium]

@MartianStories if you look at my other videos about Jupiter Moons rotations and see their information boxes and (right now i have one of them Callisto as featured video), you can find all what you need about them in Math details..

gladly waiting for the tickets
