Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun in our solar system and is the largest planet overall. It is classified as a gas giant due to its composition, which is primarily hydrogen and helium, lacking a solid surface. Jupiter is known for its prominent features, including a thick atmosphere with great storms, such as the Great Red Spot, a massive storm larger than Earth that has persisted for centuries. The planet has a strong magnetic field and an extensive system of moons, with the four largest known as the Galilean moons: Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. Jupiter’s immense size and gravity make it a significant object of study in astronomy, influencing the orbits of other celestial bodies and playing a role in the dynamism of our solar system. Its striking bands of clouds and colorful atmospheric features are a subject of fascination for both amateur and professional astronomers alike.
