Jupiter is a planet — the fifth from the Sun, and the biggest in our solar system. It is a giant ball of gas, not a world you could walk on like Earth. It has many moons, and a famous swirling storm that looks like a red spot. On a clear night you can sometimes see it as a very bright point in the sky. English got the name from the Romans, who also used Jupiter for their sky-father god (the Greeks said Zeus). named the planet after that god because it is the giant of the sky. This entry is the planet, though actually the god and the planet share one name, so in a story you must look at the sentence to know which one is meant.
組成From Latin Iūpiter, “father Jove,” from older pieces meaning “sky” and “father” (literally “sky father”). That Latin sits with Greek Zeû páter (“father Zeus”) and is a doublet of the Sanskrit name Dyaus Pita. In English the god is also called Jove.
