Jupiter's out here being Earth's cosmic bouncer! With 318 times Earth's mass, our gas giant neighbor has such powerful gravity that it literally vacuums up space debris like a celestial Roomba. Scientists estimate Jupiter has prevented countless extinction-level impacts by either capturing asteroids into its orbit or flinging them out of the solar system entirely. Without this gravitational shield, we'd probably be too busy dodging space rocks to have invented WiFi. Talk about taking one for the team—Jupiter's basically that friend who stops you from sending regrettable texts at 2am, except it's stopping 100-kilometer death rocks instead.
Good Guy Jupiter
