First, let's take a look at Jupiter's size. Jupiter's average diameter is about 140,000 kilometers, which is 11 times that of Earth. If you put the Earth and Jupiter side by side, it would be like this:
It can be seen that Jupiter's volume is more than 1,300 times that of Earth, and Jupiter's huge belly can accommodate 1,318 Earths.
Jupiter's mass is also surprisingly large, even 2 of the combined mass of the other seven planets of the solar system (Saturn, Neptune, Uranus, Earth, Venus, Mars, Mercury).5 times.
The huge mass gives it a strong gravitational pull, which is 2 of the Earth's5 times, that is, on Jupiter, you will gain one and a half times your weight.
Jupiter's strong gravitational pull affects not only itself, but also the Sun and other planets.
Due to Jupiter's huge volume and mass, it is enough to reach 1 1000 of the total mass of the sun, such a strong gravitational interference, so that the center of mass of the solar system falls 47,000 kilometers away from the surface of the sun, so if you stick in to see the sun, you will find that the sun is also slowly rotating around a point 47,000 kilometers away, shaking the orbit of the parent star with the power of the planet, you see how terrible he is!It's not an exaggeration to say that he shakes the sun!
Can you believe that such a giant planet is composed of gas?
Jupiter has no solid surface, and the surface of Jupiter that we observe on a daily basis is nothing more than its super-thick atmosphere, which occupies most of its volume.
And Jupiter's atmosphere is similar to that of the Sun, mainly composed of hydrogen and helium, and if it weren't for the fact that the mass is a little worse, the solar system would also be a binary star, Jupiter's atmosphere shows colorful stripes, which are caused by the storms and air currents on Jupiter. The most famous storm in Jupiter's atmosphere is the Great Red Spot, a huge cyclone that has been going on for at least 300 years and is the size of an Earth.
Jupiter's atmosphere is very beautiful, but it is also very dangerous. Jupiter's atmosphere is filled with intense storms and lightning that are far more powerful than any natural disaster on Earth. Jupiter's winds can reach speeds of up to 500 kilometers per hour, more than twice as many as Earth's Category 17 super typhoons. Jupiter's lightning is 10,000 times stronger than Earth's and can easily destroy anything.
So until now, human vehicles have not been able to enter the interior of Jupiter's atmosphere, and you are the real place of death.
Let's take another look at the interior of Jupiter. Jupiter's internal structure is very complex, and as you go deeper into Jupiter's interior, the pressure and temperature increase dramatically, and the hydrogen gas changes. The internal structure of Jupiter can be divided into four layers, which are:
Atmosphere: This is the outermost layer of Jupiter, made up of gaseous hydrogen and helium, about 5,000 kilometers thick.
Liquid hydrogen layer: This is Jupiter's second layer, which is made up of liquid hydrogen and is about 40,000 kilometers thick. In this layer, hydrogen has a high density and temperature, as well as a high electrical conductivity, which gives Jupiter a strong magnetic field.
Metallic hydrogen layer: This is Jupiter's third layer, which is made up of hydrogen in a metallic state and is about 20,000 kilometers thick. In this layer, the pressure and temperature of hydrogen are higher, and hydrogen becomes a metal-like substance with a high degree of electrical conductivity and reflectivity.
Rocky core: This is the innermost layer of Jupiter, made up of rock and metal, with a radius of about 15,000 kilometers. In this layer, pressure and temperature reach extremes, with pressures of up to 100 million to 300 million Earth atmospheres and temperatures of up to 20,000 to 30,000 degrees Celsius.
Jupiter's interior environment is unimaginable to humans, and if we try to pass through Jupiter, we will be burned, crushed, electrocuted by high-temperature and high-pressure hydrogen, and finally only a pile of ashes remains.
Finally, let's take a look at Jupiter's moons. Jupiter has 79 known moons, the four largest of which are known as Galilean moons, which are Europa, Europa, and Europa.
3. Europa, Europa. Each of these four moons has unique characteristics and environments, with Europa Io, the closest to Jupiter, a volcanically active world with a surface full of lava and sulfur, and more than 400 active volcanoes, the most volcanically active celestial bodies in the solar system.
Io's volcanic activity is caused by Jupiter's powerful tidal forces, which constantly twist and heat the interior of Io Io, making it a pool of flowing magma.
The material from Europa's eruption forms a ring belt around Jupiter, which is also captured by Jupiter's magnetic field, creating a strong radiation belt that is lethal to both humans and probes.
Jupiter's other moons also have their own mysteries, such as Europa, which has a thick layer of ice and may have hidden a liquid ocean underneath, which may be the most likely place in the solar system for life besides Earth. Ganymede is the largest moon in the Pacific system, it is larger in diameter than Mercury, it has a thick atmosphere, mainly composed of ammonia gas, and its surface has clouds of various colors, which are formed by different chemicals, such as sulfur, phosphorus, water, etc. The surface temperature of Ganymede is very low, averaging only -163 degrees Celsius, but its interior is very hot, its core may be made of rock and metal, its outer core may be made of liquid water, and its middle layer may be composed of electrolyzed water, which can form a powerful magnetic field, which is one of the characteristics of Ganymede.
Ganymede's magnetic field interacts with Jupiter's magnetic field, producing intense radiation and currents that have important effects on Callisto's climate and geology, as well as being fatal to humans and probes. Europa is the second largest moon in the solar system, it is slightly smaller in diameter than Mercury, it has a thin atmosphere, mainly composed of nitrogen and methane, its surface has frozen water and carbon dioxide, and its color is orange and brown, due to the fact that its surface is bombarded by the solar wind and Jupiter's magnetic field, causing some organic matter to be oxidized or reduced.
The surface temperature of Ganymede is also very low, averaging only -139 degrees Celsius, but it has a huge magma ocean inside.
This ocean of magma is made up of silicate rocks, it is about 5,000 kilometers thick, and its temperature is about 1,500 degrees Celsius. Callisto's magma ocean is caused by its tidal heating and radioactive decay, which gives Callisto's surface complex landforms, such as mountains, canyons, volcanoes, glaciers, etc.
Jupiter's moons are one of the most diverse celestial bodies in the solar system, they have their own characteristics and mysteries, they are also an important goal for human exploration of the solar system, and they may bring us unexpected discoveries and surprises.
