Jupiter makes the earth and continues to protect us now

It is in the solar system, circling the fifth orbital revolution orbitJupiterIt is said that gas is the main component, and the mass is 318 times as large as the Earth. Actually, there is a theory that Jupiter is not only involved in the birth of the earth, it is still protecting the earth, and its contents are explained in an easy-to-understand animation.

Scientists are out of the solar system in the past few decadesExtraterrestrial planetToI have found over 1000 items. And while observing these extrasolar planets, you will notice that there are no large planets around the sun, despite the fact that larger planets in the galaxy will orbit around the stars closer than the planet .


In 1995, as an extrasolar planet turning around the orbits of stars other than the sunPegasus 51st bWas discovered for the first time.


The mass of Pegasus 51st B is around half of Jupiter, it is about 20 times as long as the distance between Earth and the Sun, and it is turning around a fixed star. Because it is revolving orbit around the parent star, the surface temperature has become high temperature with intense stellar light,Hot JupiterIt is called. There are usually many Hot Jupiter around the galaxy's stars.


So why is a huge star in the solar system far away from the sun? To this question, scientists are deriving hypotheses.


That's the idea of ​​"WANDER JUPITER".


According to a scientist, as soon as the solar system was born, around the sun has a mass about several times the size of the EarthSuper earthThe planet was circling.


However, at one point Jupiter came and changed the gravity of the orbiting planet.


With the advent of Jupiter, planets collide everywhere ... ...


Fragile fragments ......


It is attracted by the sun and swallowed, and there are almost no planet inside the solar system.


And as Saturn was formed, Jupiter again left the sun and the fragments of the remaining planet stuck together, creating a rocky planet.


At this time it was stars such as Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars. This theory says, "Why is it away from the sun?Giant gas planetI will explain the mystery that the star closer to the sun is younger than the younger one.


According to this theory, if Jupiter does not exist, there will be no life on Earth now.


Of course we can not say that there is no possibility of life being born on the planet, but at least if Jupiter did not destroy the super earth of the primitive solar system, the earth was not formed.


Jupiter is not only involved in the birth of the earth. It has been confirmed about 5 times that Jupiter is colliding with comets and asteroids in the past decade, but as a result, it is now in the state that Earth is protected by Jupiter.


The image below is the image of Jupiter taken on March 17, 2016. You can see that small objects collide against Jupiter at the point indicated by the arrow.


Scientists predict that collisions between Jupiter and asteroids are occurring about five times a month ... ...


This is because Jupiter has great gravity. It attracts comets and asteroids on behalf of the Earth and catches the collision.


However, some doctrines indicate the possibility that Jupiter may lead a comet or an asteroid to the earth and catastrophic events may occur.


Nonetheless, it is certain that the present earth and creatures exist because Jupiter is present. It is far beyond the universe but the Earth receives great benefit from Jupiter.
