TEACHER: ERTAN BIKLICI SCHOOL: NYSS GRADE: 7 SUBJECT: ENGLISH JUPITER IN THE SOLAR SYSTEM --For the past 150 years. --With tumultuous winds peaking at about 400 mph • 1. A gigantic storm twice as big as Earth • 2. 300 years acgo • 3. The center is relatively calm • 4.Farther out, the winds scream at 430 to 680 kilometers per hour. 1.Why is the great red spot on Jupiter? How long would it take us to get to Jupiter with spacecraft?
How long would humans survive there?
1.Why is the great red spot on Jupiter?
• A persistent high-pressure region
• Producing an anticyclonic storm • Atmospheric Dynamics • Rotation: Coriolis effect: prevents it from dissipating. • Heat : Jupiter receives a substantial amount of heat from the Sun, which helps to fuel the storm and maintain its energy. How long would it take us to get to Jupiter with spacecraft?
546 days to 2,242 days
• “crushed by the pressure of the planet's layers.” • 650 million pounds of pressure at its core • -238 degrees F • Less than a second.
How long would humans survive there?
Jupiter's main ring is a narrow structure about 6,000 kilometers (about 3,700 miles) in width and about 100,000 times fainter than the planet it encircles. POTENTIAL FOR LIFE? • Lack of Solid Surface • Limited Resources • Extreme Weather • Radiation • xtreme Atmospheric Conditions (The pressure and temperature at Jupiter's surface are extreme, with pressures millions of times greater than Earth's surface pressure • Temperatures reaching hundreds of degrees Celsius below zero.
