Vocabulary
• Asteroids- many small celestial bodies that
revolve around the Sun with orbits in between
Mars and Jupiter and characteristic diameters
between a few and several hundred
kilometers. They are also called minor planet
planetoids.
• Constellation- A group of stars that make a
shape, often named after fictional characters,
people, animals, and things.
Vocabulary (continued)
• Jove-The nickname for the planet
Jupiter
• Hydrogen-A colorless, Odorless, highly
flammable gas, the chemical element of
atomic number 1
• Helium- The comical element of atomic
number 2, an inert gas that is the lightest
member of the nomble gas series
Vocabulary (Continued)
• Comet- A small body of ice and dust in orbit
around the sun
• Meteorite- A part of a meteoroid that survives
through the Earth’s atmosphere
Vocabulary (continued)
• Astronomy- the scientific study of celestial
objects (such as stars, planets, comets and
galaxies)
Jupiter
•The fifth planet from the
sun
•2.5 times more massive
than all the other planets in
our solar system combined
together
•Explored by a robotic
spacecraft on several
occasions
•Known by astronomers of
ancient times and was
associated with the
mythology and religious
beliefs of many cultures.
•Has no rings around it
Both
•Jupiter and Earth
have natural
satellites
•Both are in the
solar system
•Both planets
Jupiter and Earth
have Methane gas
•Both orbit the sun
•Both rotate
around
themselves.
Earth
•The third planet from
the sun
•Earth is the only place
that life exist
•Earth formed 4.54
billion years ago
•Earth has it gedical
history and orbit
•Earth interacts with
other objects in the
outer space
Jupiter Formation
Jupiter was first ice covered dust in the outer
solar system, cold solar nebula. Small pieces of
ice and dust came together, forming larger and
larger objects. When Jupiter collected enough
mass, its gravity attracted more dust, as well as
hydrogen and helium. The heaviest elements
sunk into the core of the planet, surrounded by
the lighter hydrogen and helium in its
atmosphere. That’s how the planet Jupiter was
formed.
Graph
Describe Jupiter
•Jupiter is a great red spot, and
the four largest moons known
as the Galilean satellites. The
great red spot, a storm in
Jupiter’s atmosphere, is at least
300 years old.
Describe Jupiter continued
•The Storm is larger than one
Earth diameter from north to
south, and more than two Earth
diameters from east to west.
•The great red spot appears
longer in the north – south
direction.
Describe Jupiter (continued)
•Wind blows counterclockwise
around the great red spot at
about 400 kilometers per
hour.(250 miles per hour.)
The distance from the
sun:
Jupiter is
484,000,000 miles
away from the sun.
Algebraic Equation
•If you add the distance of Jupiter to
the Sun is 484,000,000 and subtract
the number by Neptune’s rotation
around the Sun which is 263 and
divide the number by Earth days
which is 365 what is the total?
Formula = J-N/E=K
Answer
•K = J-N/E
•K = 484,000,000-263/365
•K = 1,326,026.80
•So the answer to the algebraic
equation is 1,326,026.80
