These create smaller magnetospheres that dominate the Sun's influence within their boundaries. Jupiter's magnetosphere is very large, extending over a million km in all directions and as far as the orbit of Saturn in the direction away from the Sun. The Earth's is much smaller, extending ...

Solar system, assemblage consisting of the Sun and those bodies orbiting it: 8 planets with about 210 known planetary satellites; many asteroids, some with their own satellites; comets and other icy bodies; and vast reaches of highly tenuous gas and dust
In addition, Jupiter has the fastest rotation of 10 hours which is thought to enhance the magnetosphere of this amazing planet. Jupiter's atmosphere is composed of three layers, with the upper two layers containing ammonia and ammonia compounds. The lower atmosphere contains water vapor and ice...
3. While ice-covered planets could harbor life in the ocean beneath a frozen surface [200], it would be challenging to detect the presence of sub-surface life remotely. Planets with conditions amenable to life on the surface offer the best chance for the spectroscopic detection of gases ...
According to an article published inScience Advances, this event happened early in the Noachian period, but the full consequences wouldn't be felt for billions of years. A magnetosphere is what keeps a planet's atmosphere from being stripped away by solar winds (it's the same thing thatprotec...
This review presents the progress made in the last decade in the field of large-scale electromagnetic (EM) induction with natural sources, which fluctuate at periods from seconds to years and originate in oceans, ionosphere and magnetosphere. These mechanisms produce field variations that can be use...
Using this information will be essential to constrain the interior structure of Uranus and Neptune themselves, but also of Jupiter, Saturn, and numerous exoplanets with hydrogen atmospheres. Owing to the spatial and temporal variability of these atmospheres, an orbiter is required. A probe would ...
