The Giant artificial satellites Lesson 8. 8 Introduction Gas giants fall into divergent categories. So-called traditional gas giants include Jupiter. Jupiter is such a uncorrupted example of a gas giant that gas giants are often referred to as Jovian planets despite the fact that some gas giants ,ice giants for display case are very different from Jupiter. Traditional gas giants have full(prenominal) levels of hydrogen and helium. An early(a) category of gas giants is ice giants. Ice giants are similarly composed of small amounts of hydrogen and helium however, they have spicy up levels of what are called ices. These ices include methane, water, and ammonia. I. Objectives A. Identify the different kinds of giants planet B. Explain the social organisation of the giants planets II. Learning Content There are four gas giants in our solar System Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. As noted, Jupiter is a traditional gas giant. Saturn is also a traditional gas giant. merely, Uranus and Neptune are ice giants. Their blue people of colour is due to the large amounts of methane in the planets. All of the gas giants in our Solar System have planetary ring system, and they are all a good deal larger than the terrestrial planets in the Solar System.All of the gas giants in our Solar System also have many another(prenominal) moons. Again, Jupiter holds the record with 63 moons discovered so far. Outer Planets For the outer planets, the division is more distinct, with the midland two gas giants, Jupiter and Saturn being quite different in many ways from the outer two gas giants, Uranus and Neptune. In terms of size, Saturn, with a diameter of 120,000km is not a world away from Jupiter, with a 142,000km diameter. However the other two planets, Uranus and Neptune have diameters of only 51,800km and 50,000km respectively roughly the size of the nerve of Saturn or Jupiter.This large size difference is responsible for many other differences between the two gro ups, for instance Jupiter and Saturn both have sufficiently high internal pressures to squeeze large quantities of atomic number 1 into a metallic state in their cores, whilst Uranus and Neptune can produce only a tiny fraction of this amount. As a consequence, their magnetized fields are much smaller than those of Saturn and Jupiter, whose magnetic fields are generated in large part thanks to galvanizing currents moving through this material.
