“We now have a close-up view of Jupiter’s magnetic field, almost as good as our knowledge of the Earth’s field, which took hundreds of years to work out,” said planetary scientist Chris ...

At this depth, the hydrogen inside Jupiter is under so much pressure and at such high temperatures that it behaves like the molten iron in Earth’s core to produce a magnetic field. “ ...

New data from Juno, a NASA space probe that's been orbiting Jupiter for the past two years, reveals that the gas giant has a field unlike that of any other planet. While Earth's magnetic field is ...

Imagine the powerful auroras and potential technological disruptions if Earth possessed a magnetic field as strong as Jupiter's. Chief Justice Roberts Sets Record Straight On SCOTUS Overruling ...

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 ...

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 ...

These temporary events have been found around Earth and Mars, and now researchers report that even Jupiter has them. The biggest planet in the Solar System has a magnetic field that is 20,000 ...

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 ...
