Scientists have discovered that during storms on Jupiter, ice balls containing ammonia and water fall. This unusual ...
Large hailstones made of ammonia may explain why the gas is missing from large pockets of Jupiter's atmosphere.
A massive solar windstorm in 2017 compressed Jupiter's magnetosphere "like a giant squash ball," a new study reports. The discovery stemmed from an unusual temperature pattern scientists observed ...
Observations of Jupiter show that ammonia is unevenly distributed in the upper atmosphere, against expectations of uniform mixing. Scientists found evidence for a complicated but apparently real ...
"The solar wind squished Jupiter's magnetic shield like a giant squash ball. This created a super-hot region that spans half the planet. Jupiter's diameter is 11 times larger than Earth's ...

A burst of solar wind triggered a planet-wide heatwave in Jupiter’s upper atmosphere, say astronomers at the University in ...
Research published by scientists in England found a 2017 solar event compressed Jupiter's magnetic field, setting off aurora at the poles and heating in the upper atmosphere that spread across the ...
In the great tug-of-war between the Sun and its planets, Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus are much more susceptible to solar activities than scientists thought. Jupiter itself has an interesting reaction ...
