So, how does this work,
first the clouds become covered
with new red spots, then
Jupiter ignites,
the Sun becomes binary,
and nights get brighter?

Hillary says the possibility of a 4th red spot is a valid reason for staying in the race.

that would be way too cool
I wonder if jupiter has enough mass to do that?
The sudden releaseof radiation might be worrisome- who knows what a sun gives off when it ignites

No not the red spots. Little black domino looking rectangles that multiply very very fast.
Hal?

>Quaid, turn on the reactor!
This may have become
my favorite tin foil thing.
The whole theory is
the Galileo
spacecraft was
carefully rigged
to start reactions
that would end up with
Jupiter turning solar.
As tin foil things go,
the
scope is so big
that I give the guys credit
for being
good nuts!

Did NASA Accidentally Nuke Jupiter?
By Richard C. Hoagland, © 2003 The Enterprise Mission
On September 21, 2003 NASA deliberately directed its amazing, still-functioning Galileo spacecraft to make one final, 108,000 mph suicidal plunge into Jupiters vast atmosphere. Thus ended the incredibly successful eight-year unmanned NASA Galileo mission
which had returned against all odds an array of phenomenal new information on Jupiter and its mini-solar system of moons
in a literal, most fitting blaze of glory. ...

"The Hubble and Keck images may support the idea that Jupiter is in the midst of global climate change, as first proposed in 2004 by Phil Marcus, a mechanical engineering professor at the University of California, Berkeley. The planet's temperatures may be changing by 15 to 20 degrees Fahrenheit, getting warmer near the equator and cooler near the south pole. He predicted that large changes would start in the southern hemisphere around 2006, causing the jet streams to become unstable."
.......but if we all drive 55MPH and stop outdoor grilling, everything will be OK.

The last piece I read
said that Jupiter would need
to be 80 times
its current mass to
reach even brown dwarf size.
I'm hoping some guy
misplaced a decimal
or used bad rounding routines.
I'd like to see it.

Me too but I'm not so sure it would be a good thing to see from earth. Seems like sparking a star disturbs things quite a bit and we don't need another heavy impact period.

I for one support the idea of sending Al Gore to
investigate.
