What if Earth was a Moon of Jupiter? 

😂

O O F

What?

Ooohhhhhh I get it

😂

Alex D 2016 More like wouldn't exist to be fucked.

thesupersonicstig Exactly.

Alex D 2016 lol

Alex D 2016 WAIT UNTIL YOU FIND OUT THST YOU CANNOT DEBUNK THE FLAT EARTH THEORY.

Toxic Lucidity What the fuck ?

Peter Švančárek So many damn habitable planets

The gas giants would lose its mass much faster and the moons would be left orbiting the Sun, or themselves and the Sun.

It sounds like a proof of concept on how to negate tidal lock that would otherwise occur in direct orbit around an MxV star. Would Earth have a stable orbit around said gas giant?

wow

Jupiter in goldilock zone is very interesting scenario. A gas giant with probably many habitable moons!

Galaxion earth would capture it

It does

@66760 they're lil metal boxes from earth

Galaxion The moon is a moon… It is impossible

I think the Moon is too close to Earth to have its own moons. Moons around our Moon would either crash on the Moon or be captured by Earth. I think that's a general problem with moons. They would need to orbit their planet real far, or be real massive, to keep their own moons. That would be an interesting project to see where the Moon would have to be, to have a moon!

You can see it coming at earth at 6:45

Rom Flo K

Im pretty sure Earth chased Io down.

Canabro no I think it was io that chased down earth but earth could of went a little toward io. maybe your right

Rom Flo

It’s called the Goldilocks Zone and its in fact within its boundaries right now and so is Venus yet we have yet to see life on either planet

Between the added heat from the tidal heating and the significant energy input from Jupitershine assuming Jupiter was orbiting the Sun where the Earth is now and Earth at the same 330,000 km distance from Jupiter as in this video Jupiter would illuminate the Earth at ~1.25% the level that Sol itself does with reflected light. Not sure if US2 takes that into account though and while that might not sound like much it's still north of 2 Petawatts or to put that into perspective the equivalent of a 500 kiloton nuclear weapon per second. Or put another way enough energy every second to cover humanity's current energy demands (total primary energy demand that is) for around 3-4 millennia. So yeah kinda makes a difference add to that the fact that the tidal heating was peaking at about double that amount again and yeah I think would need to move Jupiter a few million km further out to stop Earth from experiencing global warming quite a bit faster and more drastic than currently assumed. On the upside totally gotta get me some geothermal energy stocks if this happens.

What if Earth was positioned at the edge of Jupiter's hill sphere?

True that would reduce both of those effects pretty significantly then again also come to thing of it I forgot to take into account the fact that Jupiter would eclipse the Sun for hours each orbit too so it might balance out that way.

I imagine that it would be best to orbit Jupiter's poles instead of the equator, otherwise we'd sweep through the radiation belt.

Barnard Rabenold I don't know if earth would be habitable if Jupiter orbited in earth's orbit and earth orbited Jupiter because we would get tremendous tidal forces from Jupiter in addition to the heat from the sun. However, if Jupiter orbited a little further from the sun than earth does (say in a mars orbit) theoretically there would be a sweet spot where the reduction in heat from the sun is exactly offset by heat from increased tidal forces. That would be interesting to see.

It would turn into a big ball of lava. Just imagine the incredible tidal energy combined with already existing incredible solar energy...

Well that and the gas giants tend to produce a lot of radiation , it wouldn't be good

Jupiter has more gravity than Earth so, Earth will start orbiting Jupiter

I like that idea. Put Jupiter at Earth's distance, then put Earth into Jupiter orbit, but make it a high orbit or inclination to reduce the number of eclipses from happening on every orbit (for climate purposes). Pull Earth's moon in so it continues to orbit Earth.

Wouldn't that be Pandora (Avatar)

Mars would be more like a moon of Earth, a very big moon. Earth and Venus would be a more equal binary system since they are almost the exact same size and mass.

Good riddance!

Finally someone that noticed that

it was s america :D

I think he chickened out from fear of being called racist. It wasn't politically correct. LOL

I never thought about the fact that Multiple if not all the Galilean moons could’ve been habitable for potentially hundreds if not thousands of years. I doubt they wouldve had much time to cool off tho and then for life.

Dustin M enceladus has way more water than earth does

Earth wouldn’t have an Underground Ocean. Earth has very little water compared to Enceladus.

lol true but it would be way colder than jupiter

Rom Flo I question about it, I know

Rom Flo what the video said about what would happen around Jupiter, same thing will possibly happen around Saturn as well.

Charles 7 lol only if Jupiter had rings like Saturn

Rom Flo it kinda does however it's hard to tell with the naked eye.

maybe :)

+rmatt24 Indeed there would be no direct solar illumination at all not even the corona, that said it may not actually be completely pitch black depending where the other moons are they would all be crescents if any illuminated ones were visible at the time but depending how close they were in their orbit several of the larger ones could reflect quite a bit of light despite the lower solar intensity out there. Especially when you bare in mind our moon is really quite dark compared to such as Europa. Jupiter itself would be gargantuan in the sky some 48 times the diameter of the moon or about 2,300 times the visual size while the Sun would be 5 times smaller in diameter or around 25 times smaller in area. Making it some 240 times smaller in diameter than Jupiter or 57,600 times smaller in area. That said even if the Earth were tidally locked to Jupiter the fact that it would eclipse the Sun every day (unless Earths orbit was inclined way outside the plane of most of the orbits in the system) that doesn't mean it would be dark all the time, the Jupitershine would actually be really bright even with the sun being 25 times dimmer, the 2300 times larger size in the sky would still make it about 90 times as bright as the full moon where we are now. Ok sure that would still be more than 20,000 times dimmer than the noon Sun here on current Earth but it's still not dark you could easily walk around with just the Jupitershine and see where you were going and stuff not that you would perhaps want to you know with the whole it's goddamn freezing out there part but heh...

Good post.

So the term would be called the Jovian Eclipse? 😮

rmatt24 dark matter

your dream came true lucky young one

ChristopherPalacios8 A very good question.I suppose that it still would be at least not colder than Earth or even a little bit warmer.

Cesare Vesdani ya it would be cool

I don't think so

So cool!!

After 2 hours *earth got destroyed be Jupiter's moons*

It would be cool, *literally*

I recall a paperback book in the 1980s whose cover showed Earth in orbit around a gas giant. So maybe a video where Jupiter is following Earth orbit, and put the Earth around Jupiter, but at an inclination, so you get some eclipses but not on every orbit. Also, pull our moon in so it sticks with us, not ripped away.

Rodrigo Ballon Landa what? I am confused

saturn like the moon would orbit earth and earth would orbit jupiter. The moon woul be like a moon's moon. But idk if it's possible, the moon would be attracted by jupiter and either crash into it or become its moon like earth.

Rodrigo Ballon Landa No, cause it will get captured by jupiter.

Mok. Will be crashed by jupter

after you

this is a reply, this is a like

This Is death This Is Birth

This is a star, this is the sun
