Earth may be of interest to us, since we live on it, but to an external observer, our Solar System, outside of the Sun, is dominated by Jupiter. In fact, outside of the Sun, Jupiter accounts for 250% as much mass as all other bodies in the Solar System combined. Moreover, Jupiter's major moons contain enormous quantities of water - with three of them having more water than even Earth does - and pose fascinating possibilities in the quest for life beyond our own planet.
