Sudden Snowfall

Wow. Jupiter IS scary.

what about all the others? We've been robbed!

Geeze, yes Jupiter was pretty frightening.

Pity that he didn't show the other planets' satellites, that would've been interesting to see.

That was pretty cool!

This was good. I'd like to see more planets on this.

The mass of Jupiter is equivalent to 317.83 Earth masses. I can't even imagine what something so massive, and in such close proximity would do to our gravity. The weight of everything on the planet would fluctuate wildly on a daily basis, and tides would essentially be like tsunamis on every coast. Would Earth even be inhabitable? Of course, technically, we would be the one orbiting Jupiter.

if jupiter was as close to earth as the moon is...earth would be inside of jupiter

as to the exclusion of some of the planets: venus is a similar size to earth, uranus is very similar in size to neptune, saturn is somewhat similar in size to jupiter, mercury is small and boring, and most of the moons in the solar system are smaller than ours

it was impressive how scary this video really was though

seeing jupiter in the nights sky would be like swimming with a blue whale

c0ldfish, the distance between Earth and the Moon far exceeds the radius of Jupiter. So even if you placed Jupiter on the exact same orbit the Moon travels, there'd be lots of space between the two planets.

The earth would be pretty much torn to bits with Jupiter at that distance.
