On Jupiter - Destroyer of Comets
Jupiter is often referred to as the "Guardian of the Solar System" rather than the "Destroyer of Comets." This is because Jupiter's immense gravitational pull plays a crucial role in protecting the inner solar system, including Earth, from potential comet impacts.
Jupiter's strong gravity can alter the paths of comets and asteroids that come too close to it. Instead of "destroying" them, Jupiter's gravitational influence can either redirect these objects away from the inner solar system or cause them to collide with Jupiter itself. This protective role reduces the likelihood of comets or asteroids impacting Earth and other inner planets, making Jupiter a sort of cosmic shield.
This phenomenon has been observed on multiple occasions, with Jupiter capturing or redirecting comets and asteroids. So, while Jupiter doesn't actively destroy comets, its gravitational interactions with them are vital for the overall stability and safety of the solar system.
