Good morning, Veeky Forums.
So, Jupiter's "surface" is a apparently a sea of liquid hydrogen. When I heard this, I got to thinking if there is really such thing as a true gas planet? Or are all gas planets just aquatic planets with very large, dense atmospheres?
On a side note. If we sent down, say, a metal ball that was heavy enough to resist being tossed around by the force of Jupiter's winds, as well as being dense enough to penetrate its liquid interior, would it fall straight to the core?
We call it a pass giant because the planets mostly composed of gas, like helium, hydrogen, and other light, not metallic elements.
The only reason they have liquid or solid cores is due to the extreme pressures in the core
>Actually believing a ball of gas can exist in a vacuum without equilibrating with the vacuum. Show a scientific experiment that can prove this phenomenon otherwise it's fantasy.
>liquid hydrogen
oh it gets darker Morty, try liquid diamond
>what is gravity
>how are stars formed
jesus dude
Gas giants prove that gravity doesn't exist in a vacuum,you can't have a gas existing in a vacuum, it will spread out and reach a state of equilibrium due to the laws of thermodynamics, this means something had to make or put Jupiter in it's place, just things NASA refuses to tell you...
And what do you think "put" it there?
God?
So is God still holding it in place? Is he holding Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune in place, too? Along with every other gas planet in the universe? What exactly is the point of that? Why have gas planets at all?
yes
