Here are seven notable dates in humankind’s history of observing Jupiter. diagram from 1771 of astronomy, solar system, phases of moon, orbit, Sun, Earth, and Jupiter's moons.
Hubble image of the scar taken on 23 July 2009 during the 2009 Jupiter impact event, showing a blemish of about 8,000 kilometres long. [1] In recorded history, the planet Jupiter has experienced impact events and has been probed and photographed by several spacecraft.
Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest in the Solar System. It is a gas giant with a mass more than 2.5 times that of all the other planets in the Solar System combined and slightly less than one-thousandth the mass of the Sun.
Launched on Oct. 18, 1989, from the cargo bay of Space Shuttle Atlantis, the spacecraft orbited Jupiter for almost eight years, and made close passes by all the planet's major moons. Galileo even carried a small probe that it deployed and sent deep into the atmosphere of Jupiter.
Jupiter is the fifth and largest planet from the Sun, a gas giant exceeding the mass of all other Solar System planets combined. It orbits the Sun at 5.20 AU with an 11.86-year period. Its diameter is 11 times that of Earth.
Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest planet within the Solar System. It is a gas giant with mass one-thousandth that of the Sun but is two and a half times the mass of all the other planets in our Solar System combined.
This is the timeline of Jupiter, and we're gonna show you the timeline: 4.6 Billion Years Ago Jupiter's core formed 4.5 Billion Years Ago Jupiter began growing collecting gas from his surroundings...
Launched five years ago on Aug. 5, 2011, NASA’s Juno mission maneuvered into orbit around Jupiter on July 4, 2016, joining a long tradition of discovery at the gas giant. One of the brightest objects in the night sky, Jupiter has enthralled humans since ancient times.

Jupiter - Gas Giant, Moons, Orbit: Given the planet’s large proportion of hydrogen and its huge mass, it has been traditional to assume that Jupiter formed by condensation from the primordial solar nebula.
