00:00Jupiter is one of our solar system's most mysterious worlds.

00:07But what if you could peel back its swirling clouds?

00:10What would you see as you fell through its depths?

00:13Floating through the uppermost atmosphere,

00:15the gas giant would begin pulling you in at a modest 110,000 miles per hour,

00:21per Business Insider.

00:22In the freezing ammonia cloud tops,

00:24you'd face winds whipping around the planet at over 300 miles per hour.

00:29That's thanks to its brisk 10-hour rotation, says NASA.

00:33Deeper down, you'd sink through thick blooms of sulfur and phosphorus-rich gases.

00:38After about 400 miles, you'd be experiencing pressures nearly 1,000 times what you're used to on Earth.

00:43About 2,500 miles down, get ready for some heat.

00:47We're talking 6,100 degrees Fahrenheit, which is hot enough to melt tungsten.

00:5313,000 miles down would bring you to the innermost layer,

00:57where the temperature is hotter than the surface of the sun.

01:00You'd be falling through the largest ocean in the solar system, says NASA,

01:04made of liquid hydrogen as dense as solid rock.

01:07The pressure would be so intense that the hydrogen might be compressed to an electrically conducting metallic form.

01:14This buoyant metallic hydrogen would counteract the pull of gravity keeping you in place.

01:19If you somehow managed to reach the planet's center, you'd have fallen 44,000 miles,

01:25or five and a half Earths stacked on top of each other.

01:285,500 miles, or five and a half Earths stacked on top of each other.

01:326,500 miles down would come in to feel.

01:336,500 miles down would show the water.

01:34.

01:376,500 miles位 once we USDA羅 quoted a hundred vol.
