A Hidden World Under Jupiter’s Clouds? This New Model Just Uncovered the Planet’s Mysterious Interior
Beneath Jupiter’s stormy clouds lies a world scientists have never directly seen, but new simulations are bringing it into focus. Researchers have revealed that the gas giant holds more oxygen and carbon than previously believed, challenging long-standing theories about its formation. The findings come from a study led by scientists at the University of Chicago and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, using advanced computational models to investig…
An atmospheric model of an unprecedented level of detail of Jupiter suggests that its cloud layers would contain about one and a half times more oxygen than the Sun n , combining chemistry and hydrodynamics into a single model, the simulation results also suggest that the diffusion of molecules into the atmosphere is slower than previously assumed. These data could provide new clues on how the gas giant and other planets of the system …
