Shouldn’t the gas fucking leak everywhere? How can it stay “contained” in a sphere? It doesn’t make sense?
gravity
>>16617772it just falls down, thats all. why would it go up?
>>16617772It has a glass container anon
>>16617772Why doesn't the atmosphere leak away from earth?
>>16617838>>16617772Here's the thing, it does. Even from the sun.
>>16617772Ahem well you see, uhh..ummmm yes well, just trust me on this one. The science is conclusive.
>>16617772The gas is contained by gravity from the planet being massive, and it isn't only gas, it has a solid rocky/metallic core.Though you sort of raise a good point, whether or not you thought of it- a gas planet has to be massive (compared to Earth) to hold itself together, and we don't find gas planets that are Earth-size or smaller
>>16617772>>16617838it does
>>16617838a tiny tiny bit does every day. it just requires that individual gas molecules get smashed into by some other particle going much faster in order for them to go fast enough to leave us.
>>16617838Gravity + magnetosphere
>>16617772It isn't.Current year standard model physicists are retarded.>>16617773here is an example.

Does electro static forces play a role ?
>>16617859Typically when we speak about the diameter of Earth, we don't include the atmosphere. For the Gas Giants, we do. If they have solid surfaces under the atmosphere, wouldn't it be consistent to use that? Or maybe the liquid layer?
>>16618705A planet's surface is determined to where its atmospheric pressure is equal to Earth's sea-level atmospheric pressure. For the gas giants, this extends further out than on the terrestrial planets
>>16618705i want to walk on the plains of super dense hydrogen and look up into the sky of solid swirling red.
Why doesn't the gas collapse into a solid due to the pressure?
>>16618916the idea is that it really rather does
>>16617772I saw Jupiter last night with my naked eye, also the moon is very bright and full. Thought I'd share
total trumpanzee death
>>16617772>only gasPff. Fake and gay. All indications of a weather cycle are present.
>>16617772Serious question, Are you retarded
>>16617772too much farting around
>>16617773In space?
>>16619419you ok there bud?
