Is the ring around Jupiter visible?

Question

I'm making a model on Jupiter and I know it has a ring around it but I'm not sure if it's visible or not? Thanks
I've seen pictures and It doesn't have the ring but should I still include it?

Answer 1

yes it is. it is very thin though.

Answer 2

The ring was not discovered optically until it was visited by spacecraft. The ring itself is unlike the other giant planet's rings, which are made up of small to medium sized chunks of ice. Jupiter's ring is more of a wispy ring of smoke-sized particles. It is really a result of the magnetic field of Jupiter interacting and blowing dust off of its moons

If your project is detailed enough I would say include the ring, but not to make too much of a point of it as it is a fairly minor (but interesting) feature of the world.

Answer 3

The rings are actually debris.. I'm not sure if it's visible to the naked eye. But I think it would be a better model if you included the rings.

Answer 4

All 4 of the vast planets have a ring or earrings. contained concerning Jupiter, the hoop lies between the orbits of Amalthea and Io, and is theory to be composed of airborne dirt and dust and grit debris, the two ejecta from impacts on Amalthea or from Io's volcanoes.. it relatively is relatively detectable from Earth via the main important telescopes, being relatively skinny.

Answer 5

nope....... the ring of Jupiter is not visible in telescopes it was only seen when a spacecraft visited Jupiter ...... the ring of Jupiter is approximately 1/2 mile wide

Answer 6

It is not visible from any terrestrial telescope. It was seen by the Voyager spacecraft when they flew close to Jupiter.

Answer 7

I would include it, even though its pretty thin.

Answer 8

if it has it, include it.
