6. The History of Jupiter
By: Emily Fulkerson

7. Discovery
Since Jupiter is one of the planets that can be seen from Earth or with the naked eye it is not know who discovered Jupiter or exactly when it was discovered
Jupiter was seen and named by the ancient people, simply by star gazing, because of Jupiter's enormous size and brightness it is easily spotted in the night sky
The Babylonians were one of the first people to chart Jupiter and could predict its movements for over 70 years
Galileo was the first to see Jupiter through a telescope in the year 1610 and was the first to discover Jupiter’s four largest moons

8. Naming of Jupiter
Many of the Ancients and different races had their own names for Jupiter:
the ancients called it Jupiter after the King of Roman god’s, and the God of the sky and thunder
in other mythology's the equivalent for Jupiter is the Greek god Zeus, and the Norse god Thor
the Babylonians called it Nibiru-Marduc and Udaltar
The Chinese called it Mu Xing

9. Where Jupiter can be Found
when you look into the sky at night you can see a range of celestial objects ranging from stars to planets:
Jupiter is the 5th planet from the sun in our galaxy,
it is the second brightest planet you can see at night (the first being Venus)
In the night sky Jupiter can be found in the east, in the background of the constellation Gemini, between Taurus (to the west) and Cancer (to the east).

12. Theories On Formation
When the universe was created material started to collapse onto itself, bound by gravity they crated larger particles. The wind pushed lighter elements such as Helium and Hydrogen away from the sun, and the inner regions, and left the heavier materials to create terrestrial planets. The further regions from the sun were not as heavily effected by this wind, allowing gas giants to form; as well as asteroids, comets, and moons.

13. Formation Continued…
Jupiter is comprised of two main materials about 90% Hydrogen and 10% Helium
Traces of other elements can be found in Jupiter’s atmosphere but Helium and Hydrogen make up the majority of it’s mass
Jupiter had to form its core quickly to capture the elements gravitationally before they were swept away by the wind
The periodic collisions raised the temperature on Jupiter forcing the more dense materials to sink to the center forming the core

15. Structure
The atmosphere of Jupiter is 90% hydrogen. The remaining 10% is almost completely made up of helium although there is are small traces of other gases inside as well. Since there is no solid ground, the surface of Jupiter is where the atmospheric pressure is equal to that of Earth. At that point, the gravitational pull is almost two and a half times stronger than Earth's. Jupiter's core is a challenge to find, but scientists have theorized that its core is most likely a dense hot ball of molten liquid or a solid rock surrounded by metallic hydrogen. The temperature of its core is a assumed to be 35,000 degrees Celsius. Whatever its core is made of, there are speculations that the gas giant's core may be melting.

17. Heat
Beneath the surface, the liquid and plasma hydrogen generate more heat than the sun. A third of the way into the planet, the hydrogen in the atmosphere becomes metallic, allowing it the conduct electricity. The planet rotates so fast (at only about 10 hours for every rotation) that the rapid spinning causes the electrical currents to create a magnetic field. It's magnetic field is 20,000 times more powerful than Earths.
