Jupiter's gravity is 2.5 times stronger than that of the Earth, and it can pull other planets in the solar system, including the Earth.
This means that Jupiter will interact with the Earth and the Earth's orbit, so the Earth's climate will be significantly affected.[1]
According to foreign media reports, American scientists believe that Jupiter is the "gatekeeper" to prevent the mixing of materials inside and outside the newborn solar system, because Jupiter is large and has strong gravity, which is enough to swallow some pebbles before they reach the inner solar system.[2]
The shortest distance between Jupiter and Earth is 588 million kilometers. Although the two planets are far apart, astronomers have long believed thatgas giant The gravity of is strong enough to deflect comets and asteroids that may collide with the Earth.The latest research shows that this strong gravitational effect can affect the earth's climate, forming a climate suitable for life billions of years ago.
Jupiter's gravity is 2.5 times stronger than that of the Earth, and it can pull other planets in the solar system, including the Earth.This means that Jupiter will interact with the Earth and the Earth's orbit, so the Earth's climate will be significantly affected.For example, if the earth is pulled close to the sun by the gravity of Jupiter, the earth's climate will change.Similarly, the orbit of Jupiter can also keep the Earth away from the sun.
The study was conducted by Royal Holloway College in London andUniversity of New South WalesThe researchers ran various computer models of the solar system, and Elizabeth Howell published the research report in Astrobiology.
With each repetition, the planets in the solar system stay in their original positions, while Jupiter moves in different types of orbits, from circular to elliptical orbits.At the same time, scientists moved the entire orbit of Jupiter inward and outward to test what would happen if Jupiter were close to and away from the sun.
Each simulation result takes 1 million years as the time frame to record the changes that occur with Jupiter's orbital position and the Earth every 100 years.Jonti Horner, an astronomer and astrobiologist at the University of South Queensland in Australia, said: "This default assumption is very important. With the orbital movement of Jupiter, the Earth will have many adaptive changes, and the Earth's orbit will gradually show some unusual temperature and changes."
Although the position of Jupiter causes few changes in the Earth's orbit and tilt angle, the Earth's climate effect still has unknown changes.The same research team has previously found that Jupiter's position has a significant impact on the Earth's climate, and they hope to reveal the differences based on this research.
