Jupiter is the largest planet and is the fifth planet closest to the sun. Jupiter also has a strong force of gravity that if you weighed hundred pounds on earth you would weigh two hundred and sixty four pounds in Jupiter. Jupiter also rotates the quickest out of all the other planets in the solar system. Jupiter is greatly known for its red spot in the middle. The red spot is actually a storm that has been going on for more than three hundred years. Jupiter is also 4.2 to 6.2 AU (in astronomical units) away from earth. Jupiter was also named after the king of the roman gods. However we are not positive of who discovered Jupiter first.
