Julie talks about Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system. Jupiter spins very quickly, with one day lasting only 10 hours compared to Earth's 24 hours. Jupiter has raging storms, most notably the Great Red Spot which has been a massive storm for over 400 years. Jupiter is made up of gas and liquid, mainly hydrogen and helium like the sun. With its strong gravity, a person's weight would be over twice as much on Jupiter compared to Earth. Jupiter has rings that are faint and only visible when the planet is near the sun. It also has over 50 moons, with the four largest being able to be seen with binoculars at night.

Jupiter Assignment
Hello, my name is Julie and today I am going to be talking to you about Jupiter!! Jupiter is one of the largest planets in the solar system, and is the 3rd planet in line from the sun. Jupiter spins really fast. Did you know one day on Jupiter is 10 hours on earth? Jupiters middle core is stretched out, and the planet rather than round its short and fat. Jupiter is the biggest planet in the solar system. Jupiter is a very stormy planet. There are storms found throughout the atmosphere, most storms never seem to end like the storm on Jupiter.
Jupiters Great Red Spot(GRS) is a storm that has been raging in Jupiters southern Hemisphere for at least 400 years. 100 years ago, the storm covered over 40,000 km of the surface. It is currently about one half of that size and seems to be shrinking. At the present rate that it is shrinking it could become circular by 2040. Scientists doubt that this will happen because of the effect of neighboring jet streams. The red spot is also called The Eye of Jupiter because of its shape.

Jupiter is made up of gas and liquids, and is mainly composed of hydrogen and helium just like a star.
On Jupiter, like other planets, your weight changes. If you were 70 pounds on earth, on Jupiter youre 185 pounds. This is because Jupiter is such a large planet and has lots of gravity.
Did you know Jupiter has rings? They are really faint and only able to see when Jupiter passes by the sun. Jupiter has three rings, they are named Gossamer, Main, and Halo.
Jupiter Assignment
Jupiter has 50 official moons and 4 unofficial moons. The four largest and most well-known moons are Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Calisto. Fun fact about these moons if you look through binoculars at night you can see them. Jupiter has lots more moons too.
Jupiter Assignment
Jupiter was named after a Roman King of Gods. While it had many names throughout history, the Roman empire had the greatest influence of modern society.
