On Jupiter - Destroyer of Comets
This documentary turns its attention to Jupiter, the giant of our solar system and a planet with no surface to stand on, wrapped in swirling clouds and storms larger than Earth. It explores the world's colossal gravity, which acts as a shield deflecting comets and asteroids away from the inner planets. Along the way it reveals the science that makes Jupiter so extraordinary. A fascinating watch for anyone curious about space, the planets and our cosmic neighbourhood. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
