Planet Measurement Mass: 1.8987x10 27 kg Volume: 1,431,281,810,739,360 km 3 Density: 1.33g 1cm 3 Would your Planet float or sink in water? It would sink because its density is more than 1 Gravity: 24.7 m/s 2
7
Orbit and Rotation Is takes 11,68 years and 4.332 days to orbit the sun. It take every 9.9 hours to rotate on its own axis.
8
Atmosphere Jupiter has a thick Atmosphere made of hydrogen and helium. It’s atmosphere is it’s great red spot
9
Temperature Ranges from about -190°F or -128°C for visible surface to 9°F ( -13°C) at lower could level some regions reach 40°F. Jupiter is a lot colder then earth and Florida.
10
Composition/ Appearance Jupiter is a gas giant Jupiter's internal composition liquid hydrogen, metal elements Jupiter is covered in thick red, brown,yellow and white clouds. Jupiter atmosphere is red and is a big planet.
11
Weather The weather is large. Storms that grow to cover thousands of km within hours. Winds whipping the clouds at 360 Kph and storms that last for hundreds of years.
12
Rings There are 3 rings of Jupiter. Halo ring- faint and wide Main ring- thin Gossamer ring- faint and wide
13
Moons There are 63 moons They were discovered from 1610-2011
14
Forms of Water Yes, there are small amounts of water but “not on Jupiter” It is in the form of water vapor in the cloud tops.
15
What If? You would be cursed by the gravity Poisoned by the atmosphere The surface would absorb you
16
Something Special The great red dot has been around for almost 350 years. A century ago the great Red Spot measured 40,00 Km across, but it’s shrinking It is currently half the size. Astronomers have no idea if and when it’ll ever disappear entry.
