Jupiter and Saturn host strikingly different polar storms, despite being similar giant planets, and scientists have long wondered why. New simulations suggest the answer may lie deep below the clouds.

An atmospheric study reveals unexpected findings about our largest neighboring planet and the structure of its deep atmosphere.

Spectacular clouds swirl across the surface of Jupiter. These clouds contain water, just like Earth's, but are much denser on ...

Thick, swirling clouds cover Jupiter from pole to pole. They hold water like Earth’s clouds, but at far greater density.

The abundance of oxygen inside Jupiter is a major, unsolved problem. For decades, researchers have argued about this value, ...

Spectacular clouds swirl across the surface of Jupiter. These clouds contain water, just like Earth's, but are much denser on the gas giant—so thick that no spacecraft has been able to measure exactly ...

Scientists have used sophisticated computer simulations to explore the atmosphere of Jupiter. The research has revealed some ...
