Jupiter and Saturn both have a thick atmosphere composed of mostly hydrogen and helium....why dont these gasses get lost in space?

Oh for Christ's sake! It is because they have much greater mass and therefore much greater gravitational pull.

Please check out a book on physics at the nearest public library and read it. I suggest starting with the 'Easy' section meant for grade schoolers.

Troll Alert?

Oxygen and Hydrogen dont just mix together to become water...it takes vasts amounts of energy to create water...so much energy that scientists cannot produce enough energy to create water from the two gasses according to my husband who happens to be one of you evc science ppl.

Put hydrogen and oxygen together in an airtight bottle, use the tremendous energy required to light a match, uncork bottle.

This reaction does not require a lot of energy, but I'll bet you would see it sure does produce a lot of energy, provided you survived the explosion of course. {ABE} Didn't you see that Hindenburg film in grade school like everyone else? Or at least in Lyx2no's post?

Are you a troll or something? This is getting ridiculous.

Peg Wins (but what is the prize?)

So i asked why Jupiter and Saturn have such a gaseous atmosphere to which Anglegard spewed forth a diatribe of 'Oh for christs sake...bla bla bla troll bla bla bla"

Good one. Its good to see maturity on evc.

One major difference. I am mature enough to admit when I am wrong as opposed to pretending infallibility.

As I said in one of my immature rants, such ignorance is curable, however it requires an honest attempt to actually learn.

I certainly do understand that we cannot produce water. My reply to Anglegard in msg 90 was sarcasm.

Of course you can produce water from hydrogen and oxygen, hasn't everyone here said that very thing.

At any rate, I am no longer interested in trying to embarrass you into some form of enlightenment as a person who already knows everything can't learn anything. I will leave the evidently hopeless job of trying to educate you or to get you to admit it when you are wrong to those more patient and kind than I am in this matter.
