What If Jupiter and Saturn Crashed?

Details

Description

This video visualizes the hypothetical, catastrophic collision of our solar system's gas giants, Jupiter and Saturn. While not a real prediction, it explores extreme planetary science. Jupiter (318x Earth's mass) and Saturn (95x Earth's mass) are mostly hydrogen and helium.

As they'd collide, immense gravity would first shred Saturn's rings. The atmospheric impact would generate unimaginable heat and light from friction and compression, causing massive incandescent eruptions. The planets' materials would violently mix and churn as their structures are torn apart.

The result would be a single, larger, and incredibly hot "super-Jupiter," dubbed "Jupiturn." Initially, a turbulent, glowing world, it would eventually cool, potentially forming new moons or rings from the collision debris, and developing unique, complex weather patterns.
