Ancient droplets found in meteorites reveal the history of planet formation. About 4.5 billion years ago, Jupiter expanded quickly into the giant planet we see today. Its immense gravity disturbed the ...

What processes were responsible for Jupiter’s formation? This is what a recent study published in Scientific Reports hopes to ...

If Io did have a sub-surface ocean of magma, the moon would deform under Jupiter's gravity by a significant amount. However, the Doppler measurements suggest that Io is pretty rigid, which means ...

Under its surface, they said they believe it has an ocean with tides from Jupiter’s gravity that produce heat.

A spacecraft is attempting something unusual and groundbreaking this week. It will harness the gravity of the Earth and Moon to slingshot its way to the other side of the solar system.

A new model developed at Goddard points to gravity waves in Jupiter's atmosphere as the cause, and we might have a similar mechanism on Earth.

Jupiter’s immense gravity and harsh atmosphere could tear apart any trash entering the planet. Extreme pressures and ...
