My Jupiter report

Jupiter Report

Did you know that Jupiter is 778.5 million km from the sun?Want to know more facts? Well read on…….

Looks:

Jupiter is striped with red,brown and yellow.

It is blueish like the sky but mostly orange...ish with a blue bit on top.

It has an orange circle which is a storm.Jupiter also has a brown bottom that is as brown as chocolate.

Time:

It takes six years to get to Jupiter which means twelve years to go there and back.A long time ago voyagers only took three years to get to Jupiter,probes took three-five years.To Jupiter it is 2.5 million miles,how could that be.

Did You Know……?

Jupiter is the fifth planet from the sun.

Jupiter is made entirely of gases,it is known as a gas giant.

Jupiter's red spot has been visible for at least 300 years

Jupiter has a strong magnetic field

Size:

Did you know Jupiter has the radius of 69,911 km!I bet not.Jupiter also has a diameter of 88,695 km,it is the largest planet in our solar system!Jupiter is 2.5 times more massive than all the other planets combined!!Crazy right,it's also 11.2 times bigger than earth.

Moons:

Jupiter has 67 known moons,4 of them are the size of planets!

The same 4 moons are called Lo,Europa,Ganymede,and Callisto.Think of them as planets that are very close to Jupiter.Those same moons [I think we are safe to call them planets] are called Galilean satellites,there also {pretty obvious} the biggest moons out of all 67.

In conclusion,well what do you think about Jupiter?So then,Jupiter will probably be the biggest thing in our solar system,well when the sun explodes!
