Strip the Cosmos (2014)

Episode Overview

Jupiter stands out as a planet of extremes, being twice the size of all the other planets in our solar system put together and primarily made up of hydrogen, similar to the sun. Despite its massive presence, much about this giant remains a mystery. To uncover its secrets, NASA has initiated a billion-dollar mission named JUNO. Scientists at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory work to understand the powerful radiation belts surrounding the planet. Meanwhile, an intense experiment involving molten rock in New York could shed light on what might be intensifying this hazardous radiation.
