Jupiter: Crash Course Astronomy #16

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, has an interior that’s mostly metallic hydrogen, and may not even have a core.Check out the Crash Course Astronomy solar system poster here: http://store.dftba.com/products/crashcourse-astronomy-poster--Chapters:Introduction: Jupiter 00:00Jupiter's Clouds: Zones & Belts 1:26Jupiter's Great Red Spot 2:24Jupiter's Structure 3:32Is Jupiter a Failed Star? 6:17Jupiter Radiates Heat 7:13Jupiter's Strong Magnetic Field 8:10Jupiter's Gravity 8:40Review 9:50--PBS Digital Studios: http://youtube.com/pbsdigitalstudiosFollow Phil on Twitter: https://twitter.com/badastronomerCrash Course is on Patreon!
