A rocky planet the size of jupiter is not physically impossible. It is almost certainly incompatible with life, but there is nothing in the laws of physics that would cause such a sized planet to explode or collapse.
- craftyguy 9y agoIt would not explode or collapse, but it would almost certainly be molten liquid and/or gaseous rock for a very, very long time
- danieltillett 9y agoYes that is why I said it is unlikely to be compatible with life. It would almost certainly be molten at the surface with no water no matter the distance from the star due to radioactive decay.
