Planet Jupiter it is the largest in our solar system, and as some of you are already well aware, it is constantly monitored by several ships of the space agencies on Earth. The planet Jupiter also has enough moons that constantly orbit it, and for one of them, which has the name Ganymede, a discovery was made for the first time by the researchers who are analyzing with great attention from all over the world.
Planet Jupiter could have on this moon one of the largest impact craters among all the cosmic bodies that exist in the solar system, at least among those that are known. Ganymede is the largest moon that orbits the planet Jupiter, so it is logical that there are also many craters resulting from the impact with various cosmic objects, but researchers believe that there would be the largest of all those observed in the solar system.
Planet Jupiter: COLOSSAL Discovery, First in the Solar System
Planet Jupiter it does not have a monitored surface due to the storms that cover its atmosphere completely, but NASA managed to take many pictures of the surface of the Ganymede moon. In the area with the oldest terrain of the moon Ganymede, a huge crater was discovered that is evidence of a very large impact that affected this moon near the planet Jupiter, and it would have a diameter that covers almost the entire surface of a side part of of the month.
Planet Jupiter it could be affected by similar problems, but in the case of the Ganymede moon, it is estimated that the impact that made that crater was so violent that it affected the entire moon. Researchers are of the opinion that an asteroid with a diameter of 50-150 kilometers would be responsible for the crater discovered on the moon Ganymede near the planet Jupiter, so we would be talking about something that would have destroyed any kind of life forms that would have existed there at a given moment.
Planet Jupiter it is more than likely constantly hit by many objects that travel at high speeds through the solar system, but until we see its surface, everything remains a mystery.
