There isn't enough material in our solar system to make another star. We'd have to import some gas giants from other systems, and the shipping cost is where they get you.

Her: He is probably thinking about other girls

Him: *can jupiter become a star?*

[azraelarchangel]

Idk. Jupiter has to work on his singing and dancing to become a star.

Very instructive, i knew from childhood Jupiter was like a "failed star" in that the composition is about the same but it needs to be many times more massive to start its star reaction. Well thanks to you i like everybody else here know more precisely about it. :)

The transition point between a gas-giant and brown-dwarf is 13 Jupiter-masses at which point the core is hot enough for Deuturium fusion and second threshold is 69 Jupiter-masses at which Lithium can be fused. The threshold for Hydrogen-fusion is 76 Jupiter-masses.

Thank you Jupiter for being our cosmic big-brother.

[CesareVesdani]

If Jupiter were to become a star, it would have to be a dwarf star.

[Dowlphin]

I love Jupiter the way it is. To me it is already a star.

[shamekagibson]

Anton my mom likes your chanel because it is very educational.

[AmateurArson]

Now put a habitable planet around Jupiter star

[Ziar]

As Doc on the Space Engine Discord put it, “Brown Dwarfs are wanna be stars that are gas giants”

[willthebeast]

Always wondered and wanted to see this. 👏
