Crash Course Astronomy #16: Jupiter

Curated by ACT

Jupiter is the biggest planet in our solar system. The gas giant is NOT a failed star, but a really successful planet! It has a dynamic atmosphere with belts and zones, as well as an enormous red spot that's actually a persistent hurricane. Jupiter is still warm from its formation, and has an interior that's mostly metallic hydrogen, and it may not even have a core. [10:44]
