As respostas ao problema do núcleo de Júpiter continuam. Curiosa esta que se segue embora não tenha conseguido indentificar o autor.

"When talking about Jupiter's core (or center), it gets a bit messy.
The center part is under such extreme pressure and temperature conditions
that it can techincally be a liquid but behave like a solid.
There are no conditions on Earth that can really match it.
The current belief is that there's no real dividing line marking where
the "core" of Jupiter ends and the outer layers begin. It's the same
material but it's just a constant increase of pressure and temperature
as one continues to the center. It's not like the Earth where
you can see the dividing line between the core and the mantle.
Since we can't find a dividing line, Jupiter doesn't really have a core. "
