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.

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

How nutrients from Europa's icy shell reach its ocean has been unclear despite several theories.

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

Jupiter harbors more oxygen than the sun, a new study finds, giving astronomers a crucial clue about how our solar system's ...

According to the study, this process could be an effective way to transport surface material to the ocean beneath Europa.

What processes are responsible for shaping Jupiter and Saturn’s polar weather? This is what a recent study published in the ...

Unlike earlier studies, which often examined chemistry and atmospheric motion separately, the new simulations combined both.

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

Jupiter and Saturn's different polar storms reveal clues about planet interiors: Saturn has harder bottom than Jupiter.

Research into Jupiter’s moons shows Io and Europa did not evolve apart but formed with opposite compositions from the beginning.

NASA launched the Europa Clipper spacecraft in 2024 with the goal of investigating whether conditions favorable for life exist on Europa.
