This lesson begins with an explanation of the processes that allowed the planets in this part of the solar system to grow to such large sizes. How the gravity of Jupiter produces tidal heating of Io and Europa, causing the extensive volcanic activity on Io and a liquid ocean beneath the surface of Europa is explained. Saturn’s interior and atmosphere are compared with those of Jupiter. The formation and characteristics of the ice giants Uranus and Neptune are also discussed.
