Jupiter
Jupiter, the fifth planet in our solar system and our largest neighbor. There are over 480 million miles between the Sun and Jupiter, about 5 times the distance of the Sun to the Earth. With an approximate 44 thousand mile radius, over 1300 individual earths could fit inside Jupiter. Along with being the largest planet, Jupiter also has the most moons, 67 of them are known, including the four largest Galilean moons: Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. One of Jupiter’s most interesting aspects is that it actually has rings like Saturn or Neptune, except much smaller, so small that they were only first discovered recently discovered in 1979. This image was taken by the Stocker AstroScience Center telescope by Dr. James Webb and color combined by Bobby Martinez.
