    This video has been a long time coming - a remaster of one of the very first videos on my channel from the "Our Solar System's Planets" series. Apart from the structure of the script though, not a lot has survived from the original, we have new narration audio, new images, new music, updated information, 4K, etc. So far we have remastered Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus, so which planet would you like to see remastered next?

    I don't know if you'll see this, but I'm a member of 3 astronomical societies in the UK. One of them has been around since the 1890s. Every week, without fail, at least one of them shows a video by you. I hope you know that your content is not only great for beginners, but viewed by people who have been studying the stars for 60 years or more.

    I'm a primary school teacher and for a couple weeks each year I teach about space while using Space Engine and Universe Sandbox. I open up the space-themed weeks with 120 kids listening. Some classes I've been teaching multiple classes, totaling around 4 hours of mostly talking, and over 95% of the kids were still hooked. They are always brimmed with wonder and questions. Every year I come back to a couple of your videos to freshen up on my knowledge, so thanks for that!

      To be fair, from what I've heard, Jupiter is actually protecting us from many asteroids by pulling them to it instead of the asteroids having free access to hit Earth. So if anything, Jupiter is probably the most important planet in our solar system to us, other than Earth of course.

    I used my Nikon P1000 super zoom camera (it's like a mini telescope) to get a photo very close to what was at 6:17. It was amazing to see the bands on Jupiter with my own tools. Its different to see these celestial bodies yourself instead of just through youtube videos and documentaries. Its floating out there right now and has an influence on all of us even though most people won't really care to notice it. And it has its own hurricanes, crosswinds, tornadoes and lightning strikes happening right now, but no one is there to witness them. At least... not yet. Hopefully we can get some good video and audio footage of all of our planets one day soon!

    Jupiter is so large, that when it was closest to the earth a few years ago. I snapped a picture of it with a 3000mm (125x optical) lens. You could see the Galilean moons and actually make out its bands. Similar to 6:18. No fancy telescope needed, just a Nikon P1000 camera.

    The fact they suspect Jupiter was way out, came wandering in, then went back out again - thus influencing where we are, why Mars is so small, why it didn't quite make it as a star. It's a fantastic planet. Oh, and for those that ever have or haven't Jupiter in the Planet's Suite is such an awesome composition.

      School only ever teaches you just enough so that you can pass their tests. Having graduated I can honestly say that over half of what I knew in those times I sought out by myself. I can also say that over half of what I learned in school has now been forgotten. School doesn't really care about your education or interest to learn, they only care if you're present so they can get money.
      I've had so many wonderful teachers that wanted so desperately to teach us useful things that weren't in the curriculum.
      Most of the time the teachers aren't even the problem it's the curriculum and the school board, some of my past teachers have even tried to fight against it.

      I’m taking a course of astronomy in high school, it’s online but I’m thankful for it because I got to choose something I’m extremely interested and passionate about. It’s definitely more accessible and fun than normal public school, though sometimes it is difficult to get the motivation a sit down and get work down lmao.

    I like the fact that Jupiter was destined to be a star but failed, and that you can fit all the rest of planets in between Earth and the Moon next to each other

      Blaspheme not so against the Grand Order of the Solar System! If Jupiter wanted to be a star, he should have been in the middle of the proto-planetary disk instead of being caught in the boonies like a chump!

    I love these indepth videos about our planets. I would love to see a video about how unique our solar system is in comparison to most other systems we've discovered. From our Sun to the number of planets in the system. A lot of other systems have their gas giants in the inner system or missing Rocky planets altogether. How different is our system to what we've discovered everywhere else?

    Somehow this video was recommended by the algorithm to me and I didn’t see a long while ago such space content. While I didn’t learned much new, it was a nice refresher and also a really nice conclusion of information about Jupiter.
    Also I’m 32, so … school is a bit away in the past 😅

    I did a project on Jupiter in grade 8 (1981), and was asked to also present drawings of what life would be like there, if it existed. Never worked so hard on a school project - my Mum was already an armchair astronomer (she gave me the Fever for science and astronomy), and even my Dad got excited about it too!
    I got 96% and I was very proud 😂

    Quick tip for remembering distances of planets: If it's closer than the earth, proceed by thirds: Mercury ~= 1/3 distance to Earth, Venus ~=2/3 distance to Earth. Mars is half-again (1.5x) distance from Earth, and then the rest proceed by 5 and 10: Jupiter ~= 5x distance, Saturn ~= 10x distance, Uranus ~20x distance, Neptune ~30x distance. No, it's not perfect (Venus is more like 3/4), but as a quick reference it works pretty well!
