Superlatives of Jupiter:•Most massive planet in the solar system.
•Rotates the fastest.
•The strongest magnetic field.
•The most massive satellite system of any planet.
•The Magnetosphere of Jupiter: Coupling the equator to the poles

Factors needed to form and maintain magnetosphere:
• A strong enough planetary magnetic field that halts the solar wind.
• A source of plasma internal or external to the magnetopause to populate it.
• A source of energy to power it.
