JUPITER | Educational Facts and History of the Planet Jupiter

Jupiter is the fifth planet of the solar system in order of distance from the sun, as the distance between him and the sun is about 778 million kilometers, which is this dimension needs to nearly a tenth Earth years to complete a session on the sun, either in terms of size it is considered Jupiter largest planets of the Solar System amounts to a radius of about 69 911 kilometers about the size of about 1,431,300,000,000,000 cubic kilometers, and its mass is equal to one per thousand of the mass of the sun, the buyer from the surface and appears brilliant and clear because its sheer size, shall be deemed the buyer third orbs brightest of the sky to the Earth after Venus and the moon, that has revolved around the buyer a lot of myths in the past, it was the ancient religions and legends link it and prepared to worship the gods of the planets, it was the Romans call him Jupiter name a lightning god of them.

 Properties

The buyer is one of the planets that consist basically of fluids (liquids and gases), it doesn't have a rocky structure as the Earth so that its density is less than the density of the other rocky planets in the solar system, but in turn contains a dense nucleus as scientists, and takes that kernel layer of metallic hydrogen and a hydrogen and situations are the result of exposure to high pressure up to 25 Giga Pascal metallic properties appear, and this plus some helium, and either the outer layer of Jupiter so be Of the hydrogen in its non-metallic specifically, but still the buyer structure is a set of theories that there is no proven practical guide, Brook health and error.

 Its atmosphere

 The atmosphere of the buyer is the largest atmospheres in the solar system, goes up to five thousand kilometers vertically from the beginning point identified by the scientists point where ten thousand units atm pressure equivalent to 10 bars almost, have been identified this point the fact that Jupiter is a gaseous planet, there is no limit clear break between the atmosphere and the planet's surface, as in the rocky planets planet Earth that surrounds the external atmosphere crust composed of rock or water.

Its rings and its moons

Outside the atmosphere it takes Jupiter number of episodes but it paled in comparison to that which is famous by Saturn, Jupiter's inner circle known as Halo, outer ring with the name Gosamar and medium in the name of the key ring, and the moons of Jupiter, surrounded by forty-seven has satellite 64 of a diameter of at least 10 kilometres, or four major satellites are moons Galileo and Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei made a discovery in 1610, is the largest of Diameter 5262 kilometers and is called Ganymede, Callisto later called Wu and Europe Smallest moons Galileo which concern is 3122 km diameter.
