The Planets Are Young: 3 Jupiter
We continue our response to the 2019 BBC-TV series The Planets, presented by Professor Brian Cox. This time, are considering the third episode, The Godfather – Jupiter. Jupiter is the largest of the planets in our solar system, and the fifth out from the Sun. Prof. Cox tells the evolutionary story for the origin of this planet and what it does in the solar system. We present the biblical creation account and we invite readers to judge which best fits the available evidence.
