Observe the motion of Jupiter’s moons over several days (movie) Estimate the orbiting period (T) of Moon I or II . T = Estimate the mean radius (r) of the moon’s orbit by comparing it to the diameter of Jupiter (142984 km) r = Solve for the mass of Jupiter using Kepler’s 3rd law (use consistent units!) ................
