How Big is Jupiter? | Exploring Nature - Duration: 2:58.

How Big is Jupiter?

The largest planet in the solar system, the gas giant Jupiter is approximately 318 times

as massive as Earth.

If the mass of all of the other planets in the solar system were combined into one "super

planet," Jupiter would still be two and a half times as large.

1.

Radius, diameter and circumference

Jupiter has a mean radius of 43,440.7 miles (69,911 kilometers), about a tenth that of

the sun.

However, its rapid rotation — it spins once every 9.8 hours — causes it to bulge at

the equator, where the diameter is 88,846 miles (142,984 km).

In contrast, the diameter at the poles is only 83,082 miles (133,708 km).

This stretched shape is known as an oblate spheroid.

If you were to walk around the equator of Jupiter, you would travel 272,946 miles (439,264

km), over 10 times the distance around Earth's center line.

Because Jupiter is made of gas, mostly, its surface is considered uniform.

As such, it lacks high and low points — mountains and valleys — such as those found on rocky

terrestrial planets.

2.

Density, mass and volume

Known as a gas giant, Jupiter is composed primarily of hydrogen and helium.

It weighs in at 1.9 x 1027 kilograms.

Although it is significantly more massive than Earth, it is only a fifth as dense, at

1,326g/cm3, because it is made of gas rather than rock.

The volume of Jupiter is 1,431,281,810,739,360 cubic kilometers, 1,321 times that of Earth.

The surface area of this enormous planet is 23,713,907,537 square miles, or 6.1419x1010

square kilometers, 120 times that of our planet.

Jupiter's structure resembles that of the sun, but would need to be 75 times its present

mass to undergo the fusion of hydrogen that fuels a star.

The mass of the largest gas giant planets found outside of the solar system is often

given in terms of the enormous planet.

Is Taylor Swift's Revenge Song A Daring Pop Statement Or A Brilliant Marketing Move? - Duration: 10:42.

Is Taylor Swift's Revenge Song A Daring Pop Statement Or A Brilliant Marketing Move?

The past few years have been kind and kind of cruel to Taylor Swift. Her mega-selling 1989 album cemented her spot as one of the most-beloved women in pop music, a distinction she now shares with Beyonce and Adele.

But unlike her fellow leading pop divas, Swift might simultaneously qualify as one of the genre's most-hated female stars.

It's hard to think of a more polarizing pop queen since the heyday of Britney Spears, or one who has been dogged by as much "controversy," positive-to-negative press, love/hate commentary, and intense scrutiny of her personal life from one album to the next.

Her last cycle included whirlwind courtships and break-ups (with Calvin Harris and Tom Hiddleston), a XXX cameo in Kanye Wests Famous single and video, a social-media showdown with West and his wife Kim Kardashian, and public mudslinging with the likes of Demi Lovato and Katy Perry.

What's a most-beloved and most-hated pop star to do next? In Swift's case, reinvent herself. again.

On August 25, she previewed her forthcoming sixth album, Reputation (due November 10), with a new "groundbreaking" single, "Look What You Made Me Do." While the "groundbreaking" aspect is relative (remember, she began her musical life as a sweet-as-pie country star, so any pop move is still seen as daring for her), this might be her most meta, confessional work to date.

Sure, she already has a reputation for going after exes in her lyrics, but this time she's played her revenge game a little differently.  Swift nails everyone who has wronged her while nailing no one in particular.

"I don't like your little games/Don't like your tilted stage/The role you make me play, the fool/No, I don't like you," she sings over a hypnotic electro groove that's miles away from her country-pop beginnings but wouldn't sound so out-of-place on an album by her pop frenemy Kate Perry.

One can only imagine whose names are in red, underlined on her shit list. She may be "smarter" and "harder," but Swift is playing tough while (still) playing the victim. Clearly she hasn't shaken anything off.

The evolution is really all in the music, but some fans will be so busy speculating about the identity – or identities – of her tormentors (my money is on "Kimye") that how they feel about her latest change in musical direction might be of secondary importance.

  But about that change in musical direction – is it a good one? In the HuffPost article about the new song, one reader commented: "Im sure her fans will eat this up, but it was kinda lame to me.

If any other female singer released this, no one would care." That's actually the same thing I said about "Shake It Off" three years ago when it heralded her complete 1989 transition from country princess into pop queen.

Would people have embraced it the way they did if it had been Meghan Trainor's debut single? Yes, it's catchy, but that doesn't make it a great song.

To my ears, it always sounded annoyingly jejune, like a musical sandcastle any tween could construct. One gust of wind and poof!.

gone. Despite covering similar thematic ground, "Look What You Made Me Do" sounds less juvenile and has a bit more gravitas.

Swift's delivery is breathier and sexier, like she's trying to titillate us with her anger, which is definitely not something any tween would do with sand. It's also not something Fearless- or even Speak Now-era Swift would have done.

Our knowledge of her trajectory gives it inherent shock value. But her latest reinvention would scream "Bonus cut!" on any other established pop star's album.

"I'm sorry, the old Taylor can't come to the phone right now. Why? Oh, because she's dead," she says in a spoken-word interlude near the end of the song.

That may be dark by Swift standards, but the track is not nearly as edgy and new as she thinks it is.

The answering machine reference is so '90s (Who comes to the phone anymore?), as is the interpolation of Right Said Fred's impossibly cheesy hit "I'm Too Sexy." If only she'd let her well-documented love of hip hop seep into her music more, she might have looked to something like, say, Kool Moe Dee's ultimate '80s dis track "How Ya Like Me Now" for retro inspiration.

We'll never know what people would think of "Look What You Made Me Do" if they judged it purely on its musical merit.

As a pop star's fame enters the stratosphere, It becomes harder for fans and other listeners to separate celebrity from art. Whether they love or hate what you do will always be tangled up in whether they love or hate you.

Would Beyonce's Lemonade have received such blind (and deaf) devotion had her sister Solange recorded it? Would Adele's "Hello" have been such an international blockbuster sung by Leona Lewis instead? For all the talk about Swift pushing boundaries, she's only pushing her own.

She's hardly the first artist to produce modern pop music. Others have switched genres before her.

Others have grown up and evolved just as dramatically, some even more so. For truly boundary-pushing pop reinventions, check out Kesha's Rainbow or the self-titled debut album from Swift's ex, Harry Styles.

I prefer pop Swift to country Swift, but mostly because it's catchier, not because I think it's better.

I don't question the singer's dedication to the art of pop, but in a sense, pop compromises her art, highlighting her limitations as a vocalist and burying the quirk she displayed on her early hits.

Her first-phase singles like "Love Story" and "You Belong to Me" sounded more singular and heartfelt than the majority of her work since 2012's Red.

It's too bad she let Rihanna sing "This Is What You Came For" after co-writing it with her then-boyfriend Calvin Harris. It's her strongest non-country offering so far and proof that she can still score on musical merit alone.

Much of her other pop material, though solid sonically, is fairly interchangeable with the work of her pop peers, a trend that continues with "Look What You Made Me Do." Musically, there's nothing here that pop music fans haven't already heard on other records.

For such a supposedly personal song, "Look What You Made Me Do" sounds strangely robotic and anonymous. It's notable mostly because it's written and sung by Taylor Swift.

She gets credit for being daring because of who she used to be musically, so she'll never have to reinvent the wheel while reinventing herself.

It's a ploy that should continue to work for another pop album or two before the audience might demand something less calculated and pose-y.

For now, though, it's enough for her to be Taylor Swift taking on the world, a most-loved/most-hated position that gives her rooting value and something to write about.

"And the haters gonna hate hate hate hate hate," she sang on her previous album's introductory single. They're still hating, and she's still milking it.

Bad blood continues to be the source of Swift's greatest inspiration, and as it spills, it'll fill her coffers with even more gold and platinum.

Ask Alabama: Why is that place called that? - Duration: 3:13.

So as part of ask Alabama we get a lot of questions where the answer is just

too short to be a video on its own. But if I'm honest with you I'm getting a

little sick of researching Alabama during the Civil War. So I thought this

week we'd just knock out a bunch of similar questions in a bit I'm calling

"Why is That Place Called That".

Our first question from Gregory Henry is about the

name of an area known as Magazine Point in Mobile County. Well the answer to this

question goes back to...the Civil War. Dammit, Gregory. So as Gregory guessed,

during the Civil War what is now Magazine Point was used by Confederate

troops to store munitions, aka it was a magazine. Union troops blew it up during

the Civil War and since then it's been called Magazine Point. Now we're going up

to Jefferson County where Roger Attaway wants to know why Gardendale used to be

called "Jugtown". Because a long time ago there was a jug factory there. See that's

what I'm saying. There's no way that could have been its own video. And we're off to

the middle of the state for Grover Kitchens who asked 'What is the Black

Belt and why is it called that?' The Black Belt is a collection of 18 counties that

runs across the middle of the state. Among other things it's notable that

these counties have high African American populations which is why most

people think it's called the Black Belt. But really it's called the Black Belt

for the black soil that's in the area. This topsoil was good for planting

crops, so there were a lot of farms there back in the day. Up to Blount County and

also Jefferson County where we were asked if it's true the communities of

Palmerdale and Remlap got their names after a feud between two brothers in the

Palmer family. The answer to this one is: I don't know. I can say that both areas

were founded by the Palmer family. As the asker noted Remlap is Palmer spelled

backwards. But there isn't any written record of a family feud. At least not

anywhere I can find. So my best guess is no but if someone could find something

to prove otherwise, bully. And we'll close the show in Pickens County and the

name of Reform, Alabama. So this story involves this really eccentric old-timey

preacher named Lorenzo Dow. He was a super famous traveling preacher in the

1800s who could inspire throngs of followers to show up just to see him

speak. He had a whole shtick where he would scream and cry and tell jokes and

do really anything he could to draw a crowd. And it was just stuff people

weren't used to seeing preachers do. He was also his own hype man. He would do

things like show up at public meetings and in the middle of the meeting scream

out 'In one year the Lorenzo Dow will speak here!'.

And sure enough a year later he would show up to hundreds sometimes thousands

of people waiting to see the Lorenzo Dow show. The only place this didn't fly was in

the South. See, Lorenzo Dow was a staunch abolitionists and people in the South

weren't having it. So the story goes that he showed up to a nameless settlement in

Pickens County, Alabama. He tried to get people fired enough to come out to his

revival and nobody cared. The story goes that as he was leaving town some random

person said 'Hey, we haven't come up with a name to this place yet." And as he rode

into the sunset Lorenzo Dow shouted back "Reform!". And that name stuck. Alright now

we've done a little housekeeping in Ask Alabama and I can go back to the

questions people are voting on. What's winning this week? How many Confederate

statues are in Alabama? *Sigh* I'm Jonathan Sobolewski for Reckon.
