Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune fall under this rubric. Why even mention them in the same breath as colonization, given that the prospects for this appear so far in the future? For several answers to this question, as well as a description of them all from a free-market perspective, read the chapter.

Gas Giants: Jupiter and Saturn
2021In China, Gan De's observations of Jupiter also date to the 4th century BCE. Within 200 years, Chinese astronomers were familiar with the retrograde motion of five planets, including Saturn. The inhabitants of the outer Planetary System are the Jovian Planets after their archetype, Jupiter.

All the planets that have been considered so far are relatively small, solid bodies close to the Sun. Jupiter is completely different, being the first of the large non-rocky planets in the outer solar system with a density, in Jupiter’s case, of not much more than that of water.

At present, there are 509 known giant oil and gas fields in the world. A giant is defined as having 500 million barrels of recoverable oil or equivalent gas. Less than one-third of this discovered amount has been produced to date; thus, remaining reserves are sufficient, at present production rates, to last well into the 21st century. Geologically, the

Saturn and Jupiter have more in common than they have in isolation, thus Chap. 7 compares and contrasts the two giant masters of the Sun’s planetary realm. Despite some issues of scale, the broad brush strokes of each planet are rather similar. Within this broad canvas there are specific differences in the appearance of each world and the behavior of ...

This chapter examines Jupiter's climate and what it reveals about the solar system. During its first 105 years, the solar system was a melting pot in which material from stars with different chemical compositions was blended together. The high temperatures resulting from the release of enormous amounts of gravitational potential energy aided the ...

Rapid formation of gas giants, ice giants and super-Earths
Physica Scripta, 2008Giant planets might have been formed by either of the two basic mechanisms, top-down (disk instability) or bottom-up (core accretion). The latter mechanism is the most generally accepted mechanism and it begins with the collisional accumulation of solid cores that may then accrete sufficient gas to become gas giants.
