WHAT IF THE EARTH WAS A MOON OF JUPITER ?

                                    Jupiter was the solar system's first planet.And much like it's namesake,the king of the ancient Roman gods and it is the fifth planet from the sun.There are 79 known moons of Jupiter. What if we moved earth into into it's orbit,too? 

    • How would Jupiter's super strong gravity affect to our lives?
    • What would our skies look like?
    • How long you could survive on a freezing planet ?

   When run into an old friend in the last place you'd expect to see them,you figure it' a small world.When you find out that the planet Jupiter  could hold over 1,300 earths,you realize,it's a tiny world.If earth was the size of a grape,Jupiter would be a basketball. We've got one moon.Jupiter has 79,and counting.So,Jupiter's a big deal.And orbiting it would be a dream  for all you instagrammers out there,but in this  case,a picture doesn't make it last long,when everyday is a  struggle for survival.


It's really,really cold morning,and that's because Jupiter is 778 million km from the sun.That means 25x less than luminosity and 25x less heat than we currently enjoy at earth's present location. Fortunately,the sun is super bright,so we'd still get day light,but if we were to compare earth to Jupiter's closest moon,IO.Days would be 40 hours long.That wouldn't really matter,because if you were born on the earth moon of Jupiter,you'd probably grow up not knowing sunlight.


 The gravitation pull form the Jupiter's other nearby moons,and the planet itself,would generate extreme tidal forces.These would actually generate a lot of heat on our planet moon,but internally.That;s how you end up in a world where,if the cold doesn't get you,then maybe daily tsunami,earth-quack or volcanic eruption will.Well,either that or you'll just be cooked to death.Jupiter's magnetic field is 10x stronger than earth's,meaning that it emits a million times more radiation.


  So,if you really want to make life on Jupiter's  earth moon work,living underground is your best bet.One year on earth is one month in Jupiter,since it k=takes Jupiter 12 years to go around the sun.Every month on Jupiter,the planet get hits about 12 to 60 asteroids or comets.Large or small,their impacts are much more consequential.Since Jupiter's  gravitation pull accelerate these objects  to collision speed of about 216,000 km/h at the minimum.If earth become one of Jupiter's moons,we're now in the line of fire.As much,much smaller planet,we're less likely to be able to absorb these kinds of impacts. You've done your best living underground,but there's nowhere left to go when a sizable asteroid obliterates your home.don't worry this is just a story and this is impossible to occur.
