The most apparent difference is the Jovian planets are further away from the sun and are bigger than Terrestrial planets. Another, big difference is that the Jovian planets have more moons which has a bigger presence of water (mainly seen as ice) and gas.
Yes! Galileo's telescope is in a museum in Italy called Istituto e Museo di Storia della Scienza. It is one of the two telescopes that Galileo created himself. People have replicated and sold versions like it though.
Good question! The winds on Jupiter have been recorded to reach at about 384 mph! Astronomers believe that "dredged up material" below Jupiter's clouds lift and spin at climate change and it doesn't stop.

DeleteHow strong is Jupiter's magnetic field?
ReplyDeleteJupiter's magnetic field at the top of the clouds is about 10X stronger than Earth's!
DeleteWhy are so many of Jupiter's moons covered in frozen water?
ReplyDeleteThey contain methane and water. The atmosphere is also very cold, but this freezes more than that of hydrogen like other planets and moons.
DeleteWhat is the distance between Earth and Neptune?
