In 1610, a European astronomer used a new invention called the telescope to observe the planet Jupiter. What he found revolutionized the science of astronomy and our entire understanding of the universe.
Galileo also observed Jupiter that same year.
The observation of Jupiter led to the discovery of the first objects in the solar system since antiquity.
Today, astronomers are hoping that some of these moons of Jupiter might have the best hope of harboring life outside of Earth in our Solar System.
Learn more about the moons of Jupiter, the controversy surrounding their discovery, and why they are so important on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
