Gas giant planets, artwork
Gas giant planets. Artwork of Jupiter (upper right), Saturn (bottom) and Neptune (centre left), three of the four gas giant planets of the Solar System. Jupiter, the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest, has a diameter of about 143, 000 kilometres. Saturn (sixth planet, 120, 000 kilometres in diameter) has an extensive ring system. Neptune, the eighth planet, has a diameter of about 50, 000 kilometres. Uranus is not shown. The gas giants are mostly composed of hydrogen and helium, with colours caused by traces of other elements. Jupiter and Saturn have clouds of ammonia, while Neptunes blue colour is in part due to methane

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the majestic beauty of three gas giant planets in our Solar System. In this artwork, we can admire Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune, three out of the four gas giants that dominate our celestial neighborhood. Jupiter takes its place as the largest planet in our system, boasting a diameter of approximately 143,000 kilometers. Its upper right position in the image showcases its immense size and presence. Saturn follows closely behind as the sixth planet from the Sun with a diameter of about 120,000 kilometers. Its iconic ring system is clearly visible and adds to its allure. In contrast to its neighboring giants, Neptune stands at the center-left of this montage with a diameter measuring around 50,000 kilometers. The mesmerizing blue hue that envelops Neptune is attributed partly to methane present within its atmosphere. These gas giants are predominantly composed of hydrogen and helium but exhibit various colors due to traces of other elements such as ammonia (present in Jupiter and Saturn) or methane (contributing to Neptune's distinct blue appearance). While Uranus remains absent from this particular artwork display, it does not diminish the awe-inspiring nature captured by Science Photo Library's illustration. This print serves as a reminder of both humanity's fascination with outer space and our ongoing quest for knowledge about these enigmatic planetary bodies.
