Amazing new data gathered by Juno, the NASA space probe that has been orbiting Jupiter for the past two years, revealed the gaseous giant has a unique magnetic field. Earth’s field is consistent ...

New data from Webb is challenging previous assumptions about Jupiter's auroras, its magnetic field and particle interactions. If you thought the flickering green and red auroras of Earth were ...

To better understand Jupiter’s primordial stages, researchers turned to the tiniest of the planet’s 92 known moons. Almathea and Thebe respectively circle Jupiter at slightly tilted orbits roughly 112 ...

A recent study found that Jupiter was once twice the size that it is now, making it big enough to swallow up 2,000 Earths.

These movements generate the magnetic field. Earth isn't the only planet with a magnetic field—gas giant planets like Jupiter have a conducting metallic hydrogen layer that generates their ...

On Earth, these are known as the northern lights (aurora borealis) and the southern lights, or aurora australis. New data from Webb is challenging previous assumptions about Jupiter's auroras, its ...
