Document Summary
Ivory and salmon-pink coloured clouds that blanket the planet underneath which is essentially a cosmically sized drop of gas/liquid/solid hydrogen (and helium) 318 times. Pioneer 10: returned 500 images during a fly-by in 1973, pioneer 10 has now left the solar system, plaque of diagrams on the spacecraft that can be translated. Pioneer 11: flyby in 1974, measures jupiter"s intense charges-particle and magnetic field environment, pioneer 11 has now left the solar system. Galileo changed the way we think of the solar system. New horizons: launched in 2006: passed jupiter in 2007. Rings: one main ring and one minor one. 4. 0 interior heat engine: from gaseous hydrogen-rich atmosphere liquid hydrogen metallic" hydrogen heavy metal core (see figure below) Jupiter"s interior is responsible for a very high heat flow (as mentioned before, jupiter emits 1. 7 times as much energy it receives from the sun) 7. 0 geology of jupiter: no hard surface, not much geology to recount.
