Jupiter: King of Planets
February 15, 11:00 AM

Jupiter is the biggest of our solar system’s planets and a world vastly different from our own. We will explore this giant gas ball, its turbulent atmosphere, and its fascinating collection of moons.  Discover what holds together its swirling Great Red Spot, and learn about a moon that spews lava from hundreds of volcanoes, and another encased in ice! Participants will create a model of Jupiter and its moons to take home.
