What is the largest planet out of all the ones we know?
In our Solar System, Jupiter is the largest planet we have, but what's the upper limit to planetary size?
If you get too much mass together in a single object, its core will fuse lighter elements into heavier ones.
At about eighty times the mass of Jupiter, you'll achieve "true star" status, burning hydrogen into helium.
Where Do The Planets Get Their Names? - WorldAtlas
Mercury is named for the Roman messenger god. Mercury got its name due to the fact that moves faster than all the other planets. Symbology for this god includes a helmet and shoes both adorned with wings. The Greek name for this god is Hermes.
Venus is named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty, and is the only planet named after a goddess. Venus is the brightest planet in the night sky, and this could be a contributing reason as to why many ancient cultures associated Venus with love and beauty.

Edelman Planetarium presents "Rising Star" to show constellations, planets and more | The Whit ...
Every Sunday this fall semester, the Ric Edelman Planetarium will be showing "Rising Star." The hour-long show highlights South African facilities that hold some of the most technologically advanced telescopes.
The show began with curator Charles Hughes projecting the night sky above to show what people may not often see due to light pollution. Being able to see the stars so clearly and having the ability to zoom into the recreation of our solar system is a completely captivating experience.
Mapping the Interiors of Meteorites to Learn how Earth got its Water - Universe Today
By itself, water is an extremely common molecule. It can be found throughout the universe, and it’s plentiful on most small worlds, usually in the form of ice. Even liquid water is common. The oceans of the Jovian moons Europa and Ganymede are more vast than those of Earth.
Because water is so common, planets such as Earth, Venus, and Mars were formed from water-rich dust and rocks. As the young planets settled, water was rich in their early atmospheres. But much of that water evaporated into space before the planet could completely cool.
