Part 5/9:
Approximately five times farther from the Sun than Earth, Jupiter emerges as the largest planet in our system. Its immense size outweighs other planets by far and earns it the nickname "solar system vacuum cleaner," as it helps deflect potentially hazardous objects like asteroids and comets. Jupiter's grandeur is but a fraction of the Sun's size, accentuating its prominence among the planets.
