8.The planet that came closest to becoming a star is: a) Neptune b) Saturn c) Jupiter?

Answer 1

Okay astronomer bot. This is a classic question in only
ancient philosophers, so they are dead. Mainly from wasting
time discussing megaphase science. This is the clue, that
Jupiter has the size and general mass of a dead star. There
could have been a futuristic sytem where planets went into
plane level orbits and formulated the last claims of the direct
transfer of life from one system to another. This would there
eventually lead to the lower composition theory point of not
having oxygen deplition, decay, and rebulding surface atmos.
The point then of overheating flying violently at mach speeds
and spending time dieing would be similar to a star core.

Answer 2

None of the planets have enough mass. In 2001 A Space Odyssy, the fusion reaction had to be kick-started by compressing the mass until the heat started a fusion reaction. I wonder if any astronomers have ever calcualted if that would have been a stable star? -- sounds like a good question for answers.yahoo.com

Answer 3

None. Jupiter could never have became a star. Its mass is too low, nuclear fusion could not start. It formed into a planet and that is it.

Answer 4

Jupiter.

Answer 5

I've seen a lot of these numbered questions from you today.
I hope we're not doing your homework for you. You can't learn anything if you don't do some of the work yourself.
When you get yourself a real job, you'll find out that if you don't do the work yourself, you're out.

Answer 6

You seriously cannot answer that for yourself? You can't look at your textbook or type that question into Google? You seriously have to come on here and have someone just give you the answer? When you are held back this year don't cry.
