Jovian Planets • rings  not seen • very, very gigantic • Cores: metal, rock, hydrogen compounds

JJupiter • ball of gas  Hydrogen, Helium

• 5th planet • Biggest planet • Stormy, Thick clouds •

64 moons

• Great red spot  storm  300 yrs. •

thin, narrow ring, not seen

Saturn • rings  thin, wide  rock, dust, ice: frozen gas • 2nd largest • 6th planet • 62 moons

Uranus •  • • • •

rings unseen tilted 84 earth years: 1 year 27 moons Water , Ammonia, Methane • 7th planet • 3rd largest

The formation of the Jovian planets:

Accretion •

microscopic

Frost Line  Cooler temp. •

• Condensation • Hydrogen, Helium • Collide

begin to clump.

• hydrogen and helium

These clumps accrete more.

• Condensing of ices • grow in size

Clumps form planetesimals

•

larger, gravity is stronger.
