I have just been alerted by another ATS post that Planets do not exist, apparently they where invented by NASA. It's some big conspiracy that I am unable to understand, but the OP has proof.
Since Planets don't exist, Jupiter doesn't exist, and thus cannot explode.

Now seriously, Jupiter is not a typical planet it, apparently, was a forming star that due to it's lack of mass could not complete the cycle. Now it is one of the "gas planets", as opposed to the "solid planets", such as Earth, Mars, Venus etc.

Since it doesn't possess the critical mass to evolve into a star I really don't see how it could explode...But I'm no Astrophysicist so my opinion isn't worth much...

Jupiter hasn't exploded in the last few billion years, so I'd say statistics are on our side.

Good point! With Jupiter gone there would fewer places for bad planets to hide as the sneak up on Earth.

As usual ... I haven't had the time to go through the entire thread; however I would like to direct all interested members to an article, I believe it was written in 2005.

I archived it almost only because I found its topic so bizarre; however with this current discussion it might also be relevant.

The Lucifer Project



[...] NASA has crashed a plutonium-carrying RTG into a similar atmosphere before which may have resulted in an explosion the size of Earth's diameter near the equator of Jupiter as observed by many and imaged by Olivier Meeckers of Belgium on October 19, 2003. Space.com carried the story “Mystery Spot on Jupiter Baffles Astronomers.”5 The craft, Galileo, entered into Jupiter near its equator very close to where the “mystery spot” later developed (Diagram A). It is possible that if the explosion were larger or deeper, Jupiter could have reached ignition. The fact remains that a very suspicious bruise appeared on Jupiter 28 days after Galileo made its plunge there. It is important to mention that it is rare for a comet or meteor to impact Jupiter at the equator so it is unlikely this was the cause.

Poet1b: Just to keep records straight, the distance to Sun and Jupiter are not in thousands of miles but MILLIONS.. like 93 Million and 360 Million..

Jupiter is a gas-giant, and it has been estimated that if Jupiter was at least ten times as large as it is now, it would have been a star.

So it seems to me, there is no danger of it exploding now!

The Sun is 93 million miles from Earth not 93,000. And Jupiter is 390 million miles from Earth and not 390,000.
