2. In Depth | Jupiter – NASA Solar System Exploration

   solarsystem.nasa.gov/planets/jupiter/in-depth.amp

   Jupiter is the fifth planet from our Sun and is, by far, the largest planet in the solar system – more than twice as massive as all the other planets combined. Jupiter's stripes and swirls are actually cold, windy clouds of ammonia and water, floating in an atmosphere of hydrogen and helium.

3. 10 Need-to-Know Things About Jupiter - NASA Solar System...

   solarsystem.nasa.gov/module/47

   Jupiter orbits about 484 million miles (778 million kilometers) or 5.2 Astronomical Units (AU) from our Sun (Earth is one AU from the Sun).

6. 10 Facts about the Pioneer Spacecraft - NASA Solar System...

   solarsystem.nasa.gov/news/340/10-facts-about-the-pioneer-spacecraft

   For more than 25 years, Pioneer 10 was the most distant human-made object, breaking records by crossing the asteroid belt, the orbit of Jupiter, and eventually even the orbit of Pluto. Voyager 1, moving even faster, claimed the most distant title in February 1998 and still holds that crown.

7. In Depth | Saturn – NASA Solar System Exploration

   solarsystem.nasa.gov/planets/saturn/in-depth.amp

   Like fellow gas giant Jupiter, Saturn is a massive ball made mostly of hydrogen and helium. Saturn is not the only planet to have rings, but none are as spectacular or as complex as Saturn's. Saturn also has dozens of moons.

8. In Depth | Our Solar System – NASA Solar System Exploration

   solarsystem.nasa.gov/solar-system/our-solar-system/in-depth.amp

   Our solar system consists of our star, the Sun, and everything bound to it by gravity – the planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune; dwarf planets such as Pluto; dozens of moons; and millions of asteroids, comets, and meteoroids.

9. Jupiter - NASA Solar System Exploration

   solarsystem.nasa.gov/module/50

   NASA’s real-time science encyclopedia of deep space exploration. Our scientists and far-ranging robots explore the wild frontiers of our solar system.

10. Europa Jupiter System Mission - NASA Solar System Exploration

    solarsystem.nasa.gov/studies/51/europa-jupiter-system-mission

    The baseline EJSM architecture consists the NASA-led Jupiter Europa Orbiter (JEO), and the ESA-led Jupiter Ganymede Orbiter (JGO). Complementary instruments monitor dynamic phenomena, map the Jovian magnetosphere and its interactions with the Galilean satellites, and characterize water oceans beneat

11. In Depth | Moons – NASA Solar System Exploration

    solarsystem.nasa.gov/moons/in-depth.amp

    Jupiter's menagerie of moons includes the largest in the solar system (Ganymede), an ocean moon (Europa) and a volcanic moon (Io). Many of Jupiter's outer moons have highly elliptical orbits and orbit backwards (opposite to the spin of the planet).
