Magnetosphere of Jupiter By 1973 the magnetic moment was known within a factor of two, whereas the tilt was correctly estimated at about 10°. The modulation of Jupiter's DAM by Io (the so-called Io-DAM) was discovered in 1964, and allowed Jupiter's rotation period to be precisely determined. The definitive discovery of the Jovian magnetic field occurred in December 1973, when the Pioneer 10 spacecraft flew near the planet. As of 2009 a total of eight spacecraft have flown around Jupiter and all have contributed to the present knowledge of the Jovian magnetosphere. The first space probe to reach Jupiter was Pioneer 10 in
Killer Bunnies and the Journey to Jupiter The secondary strategy of the game is to explore the solar system by launching your bunnies into space in ships. Once in space, the bunnies collect Carrot markers and journey to the planet Jupiter (hence the game's title). A player owns any Carrot that he brings to the planet Jupiter, and at the end of the game when all Carrots have been claimed, the Magic (or winning) Carrot is revealed. Logically, the more Carrots a player owns, the better his chances will be of owning the Magic Carrot and winning the game. Players of Killer Bunnies and the Quest for
