Since jupiter and the sun actually rotate around a center point of gravity instead of Jupiter orbiting the sun, and seeing the composition being so close to each other, could our solar system be a failed binary star system?

[feitan]

50% of the stars in the solar systems are duel complex systems so they have 2 stars orbiting each other and planets go around 2 stars. I think Jupiter was supposed to be the 2nd star but there wasn't enough mass to create a 2nd star.

[Ray-mwfx]

jupiter is a failed everything which makes it more lovable and relatable. we are like jupiter.

[geroge]

Hey earthlings can you feed me so i can become a star plz?

[ZRazehLoL]

Jupiter is probably a failed red dwarf star considering red dwarfs are the most abundant stars in the universe. Also more than 50% of all star systems have multiple stars orbiting each other. Maybe if the cloud that became Jupiter was a little warmer we would be living in a double star system. But then maybe we wouldn't be here without big brother Jupiter protecting us from collisions by space debris. Let's just be happy Jupiter failed to get its engine going.

hey fly to jupiter and when it rains IT RAINS COMORESSED CARBON THAT MEANS DIAMONDS!!!

Thank you for posting this video and explaining the differences between a star and a planet, especially when it comes to both of them having a similar mass. As you probably know, the Juno spacecraft has answered some of the questions about the formation of Jupiter.

[iBeLilTommie]

It is still a theory as to how Stars are formed. I truly believe that it needs to be restructured, maybe then will we find better answers.

I think 13 Jupiter masses should be about the limit of a brown dwarf, because I believe that's where you get deuterium fusion which would allow the brown dwarf to emit energy of its own enough to even be visible from up close, but I do agree that the line is kind of fuzzy given composition and atmospheric dynamics, because Jupiter almost certainly would look like a low mass brown dwarf.

[GardIsPureOwned]

OK, I'm not entirely fine with your answer.
First, the word planet has clearly been defined by the International Astronomical Union in 2006:
A planet must:
- be massive enough to be spherical, but not massive enough to undergo nuclear reactions (otherwise it's a star)
- be orbiting around its star
- have cleared its orbit from any major object (otherwise it's a dwarf planet like Pluto)
Now a Brown dwarf is a little bit more problematic to define, however, it's aggreed that a brown dwarf must be massive enough to allow the combustion of deuterium, but not enough to undergo the fusion of hydrogen into helium. Thus a brown dwarf must be at least 13 times more massive than Jupiter.
In consequence, Jupiter is far from being a brown dwarf.

What might confuse you is the similarity of the size of Jupiter and of brown dwarf, however, if we were to increase the mass of Jupiter (in order to allow the planet to burn deuterium like a brown dwarf), it is believed that Jupiter would shrink, because of the stronger gravitational effects.

But did Jupiter get left of bad and boujee? 🧐
That’s the real question. 🧐

[robj]

What would be cool to me would be to witness the moment of solar ignition in a star. I don't think we've ever observed that moment when a star begins the fusion process.

Great video man I can see in a year you will get to 100k Subs at this rate. If you want to grow faster do videos on Space News like what are Future missions to space, how to colonize moons and Planets how much that would cost and your educated guess on when it will happen try it out for a month and you will see growth with my ideas. I had subscribed to you

Jupiter is not a Brown Dwarf. Brown Dwarves typically have 12-30x the mass of Jupiter. They also fuse deuterium and lithium.

[marcgg]

To be a brown dwarf, a failed star where the gravity collapsed faster then it heated up..creating abnormal matter, making fusion impossible. But still brown dwarfs are like 10 20 times jupiters mass, gas giants and brown dwarfs are one thing on the same way, only the moment it stopped is different, making all of these things the most common in the universe, since most are 3. or 4. generation objects

[mattcarafa]

Failed star? maybe it just hasn't got there yet, maybe it's a star in the making. Considering how short a time frame these astronomy experts have had to study these topics, for them to say with any certainty that they know exactly what's going on, I find (fascinating) hard to believe. Maybe our solar system hasn't gotten to the two star system just yet?

[sneddypie]

Woah woah woah, Jupiter is too LIGHT!? WHAT?

[SleepingGroke]

This made me think of what would happen if you took fire to Jupiter....
I mean, its 91% helium, and I cant remember if it was flamable

[saygr]

"Not quite a star, not quite a planet" - Buddy, that's not quite new as well but thanks for spilling it out for me.

[veeresh]

When sun become red giant do Jupiter get enough rise in temperature to fuse hydrogen into helium...??
