- This article concerns the planet. For the short story, see Jupiter. For the passenger liner, see The Jupiter.
Jupiter was a gas giant planet (until its terraforming by the Daleks) located in the Sol system.
History
20th century
In the 1970s, English astronaut Guy Crayford was trapped in orbit around Jupiter and rescued by Kraals, who used him as their agent. (DW: The Android Invasion)
Beyond the 21st century
- At some stage, the Sol system was given a "spring clean" which entailed removing most of Jupiter's moons and leaving the largest twelve. (EDA: To the Slaughter)
- The inhabited Voga, the "planet of gold" which the Cybermen sought to destroy. (Humans, not knowing intelligent life lived beneath its crust, named the new moon "Neo-Phobus".) (DW: Revenge of the Cybermen)
- Josiah W. Dogbolter, at one stage, owned Jupiter, as well as Venus and Mars. (DWM: The Moderator)
- The Daleks terraformed Jupiter. (BFDE: Dalek War: Chapter Two, Dalek War: Chapter Three)
- A space station near Jupiter was quarantined by Disinfectodroids. (DWAM: The Germ War)
Moons of Jupiter
Behind the scenes
- In Revenge of the Cybermen, dialogue states that Jupiter had twelve moons until the arrival of Voga. As discovered later, Jupiter actually has more than sixty. Therefore, the plot of To the Slaughter explains how, further in the future, Jupiter can only have twelve moons.
