• in a star with a close-in hot jupiter with another gas giant much further out, the star and hot jupiter form a pair that appears as a single object to another planet that is far enough out.
• He is credited with creating the term "gas giant" to refer to large planetary bodies.
• Another protoplanet, AB Aur b, may be in the earliest observed stage of formation for a gas giant.
• Superior planet is also different from gas giant.
• A super-Jupiter is a gas giant exoplanet that is more massive than the planet Jupiter.

• Similarly, virgae happen on gas giant planets such as Jupiter.
• The first exoplanet whose atmospheric composition was determined is HD 209458b, a gas giant with a close orbit around a star in the constellation Pegasus.
• HD 156411 is a star hotter and larger than the sun with a gas giant planet in orbit.
• The term "gas giant" was coined in 1952 by the science fiction writer James Blish and was originally used to refer to all giant planets.
• The gas giant planets have many moons and thus frequently display eclipses.

• The planetary system in the book included a gas giant planet named Megas in a very short-period orbit about its primary star.
• It is thought to exist in useful quantities in the lunar regolith, and is abundant in the atmospheres of the gas giant planets.
• When the mean orbital period of an asteroid is an integer fraction of the orbital period of Jupiter, a mean-motion resonance with the gas giant is created that is sufficient to perturb an asteroid to new orbital elements.
• Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun and the second-largest in the Solar System, after Jupiter. It is a gas giant with an average radius of about nine and a half times that of Earth.
• It is a gas giant with a mass more than two and a half times that of all the other planets in the Solar System combined, and slightly less than one one-thousandth the mass of the Sun.

• "Galileo" had two major components: an orbiter which examined Jupiter and its four largest moons for eight years, and a probe which descended into the Jovian atmosphere to take direct samplings before being destroyed by the gas giant's heat and pressure.
• After formation, strong gravitational interactions with young gas giants, such as Jupiter, scattered the objects into extremely wide elliptical or parabolic orbits that were subsequently modified by perturbations from passing stars and giant molecular clouds into long-lived orbits detached from the gas giant region.
• The team finds evidence of this as they look into information on a solar system that inhabits the gas giant of Mobus.
• On the gas giant planets—Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune—other crystals form clouds of ammonia, methane, and other substances that can produce halos with four or more sun dogs.
