Learn about the latest model of Jupiter's deep atmosphere that reveals how much oxygen the planet contains.

Beneath Jupiter’s stormy clouds lies a world scientists have never directly seen, but new simulations are bringing it into ...

New simulations suggest Jupiter holds far more water than once thought, reshaping ideas about how the largest planet formed.

Combined chemical and hydrodynamic modeling offers a powerful tool beyond Jupiter. Scientists can apply similar techniques to Uranus, Neptune, and gas rich exoplanets. Such planets remain difficult to ...

What processes were responsible for Jupiter’s formation? This is what a recent study published in Scientific Reports hopes to address as an international pair of scientists investigated the physical, ...

Jupiter’s vast, banded clouds have long obscured the true nature of the giant planet beneath, but a new atmospheric model is changing that picture by pointing to a deep chemical imbalance that carries ...

While Io, the most volcanically active moon in the solar system, appears completely dry and devoid of water ice, its neighbor Europa is thought to harbor a vast global ocean of liquid water beneath ...

A peculiar class of meteorites has offered scientists new clues about when the planet Jupiter took shape and wandered through the solar system. Scientists have theorized for years now that Jupiter ...

Four and a half billion years ago Jupiter rapidly grew to its massive size. Its powerful gravitational pull disrupted the orbits of small rocky and icy bodies similar to modern asteroids and comets, ...

New research suggests a giant impact may not have been responsible for the formation of Jupiter’s core. Most planetary scientists thought that a colossal collision with an early planet containing half ...
