This new restaurant brings a coastal steakhouse vibe to Jupiter's Harbourside Place and gives boaters a dock-and-dine option.

The science-education gap.

A photograph shared on social media in early November 2024 was taken by NASA and showed the planet Jupiter.

Planet takes more than a century to go around its star

An international team of astronomers has discovered a new warm Jupiter exoplanet orbiting a distant G-type star. The newfound alien world, designated TOI-4515 b, is similar in size to Jupiter but about two times more massive than it. The finding was detailed in a paper published Nov. 20 on the pre-print server arXiv.

Say 'gas giant.'

Step outside tonight and you'll see a stunning conjunction of the planets.

Astronomers from the Harvard–Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA) and elsewhere, report the discovery of a new 'warm Jupiter' exoplanet orbiting a rapidly rotating F-type star. The newfound alien world, designated TOI-4641 b could be nearly four times as massive as Jupiter. The finding was detailed in a paper published December 7 on the pre-print server arXiv.

The search for exoplanets—planets that orbit stars located beyond the borders of our solar system—is a hot topic in astrophysics. Of the various types of exoplanets, one is hot in the literal sense: hot Jupiters, a class of exoplanets that are physically similar to the gas giant planet Jupiter from our own neighborhood.

Europe's JUICE probe will study three of Jupiter's icy moons, looking for signs of habitable sub-surface oceans.

See the waxing gibbous moon near Jupiter on the evening of November 4, 2022. The pair lie in the constellation Pisces. Read more about Jupiter and the moon. The post Moon near Jupiter on November 4 first appeared on EarthSky.

Using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have captured a direct image of HIP 65426b, an extrasolar gas giant about 6 to 12 times more massive than Jupiter.

Hurtling around Jupiter and its 79 moons is the Juno spacecraft, a NASA-funded satellite that sends images from the largest planet in our solar system back to researchers on Earth. These photographs have given oceanographers the raw materials for a new study published today in Nature Physics that describes the rich turbulence at Jupiter's poles and the physical forces that drive the large cyclones.

There was a recent crash on Jupiter that caused a major explosion and scientists are investigating what happened.
