Jupiter is a rocky planet with a thick ocean of liquid hydrogen.


Molten rock

Solid hydrogen too,and it helps give it its great magnetic field.Bert



"At supercold temperatures, hydrogen molecules first condense into a liquid, then a solid with the molecules intact. When squeezed together, the molecules stack up into a solid form. ... Planetary scientists are convinced metallic hydrogen must exist inside Jupiter, to generate that planet's powerful magnetic fields." - Google

Also Jupiter's great gravity proves it has much mass density,and can compress its gas state 100s of miles down.Its red eye must be very heavy.It could even have iron powder dust.Hmmm Bert


lol; iron powder #win
