Medicine & TechnologyJupiter will be closest to Earth over the weekend, allowing stargazers to enjoy the view using their binoculars. Continue reading to know the full details.
Although Pluto is considered as a dwarf planet, it is not the smallest. Do you want to know the smallest in the rank? Continue reading to see a complete breakdown of the planet sizes.
An international team of scientists explored the inner radiation belts of Jupiter and found high-energy oxygen and sulfur ions supplied by the distant magnetosphere of less explored energetic ion sources.
One of Juno mission's recent accomplishments is measuring the Great Red Spot's gravity, which complements an earlier study that measured its depth. But observations on this storm suggest that it might be shrinking.
NASA's Juno probe has finally got close enough to Jupiter's Giant Red Spot to measure its depth, which measures between 186 to 310 miles (300 to 500 kilometers) deep.
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope shows that the winds in Jupiter's Great Red Spot are accelerating at a speed of 400mph (644kph), like the speed of an advancing race car.
NASA scientists analyzed new and archival data from Hubble Space Telescope and found that the auroral bands they found in Jupiter's icy moon Ganymede are water vapor in its atmosphere, contradicting previous assumptions.
SpaceX's Falcon Heavy rocket will be sending NASA's Europa Clipper spacecraft to the icy moon of Jupiter instead of the original plan of sending it via the Space Launch System (SLS), saving NASA $2 billion.
A study showed that Jupiter's polar storms are here to stay. They remain constant as they do not disperse and hardly change over time, which makes them an easier system to study.
The Hubble Space Telescope capture new images of Jupiter revealing rainbow-like patterns and colors never seen before. Europa is also seen on the left side of the gas giant, a candidate of a habitable world.
Jupiter is known not only for its size but also for the brown and white color bands that makes it beautifully distinct, but all of that could be changing.
