Bivalve Shell Structure
In many classes of Bivalvia, the shell structure comprises multiple layers. The inner, nacreous layer, or mother-of-pearl, is predominantly composed of well-ordered calcite platelets. This contrasts with the prismatic layer, which often precipitates as the metastable form, aragonite, before conversion or structural reorganization [1]. The specific morphology of the calcite crystals in the nacreous layer is thought to confer superior resistance … -
Jupiter (planet/)
Linked via "Galilean moon Io (moon)/"
Jupiter possesses the most powerful magnetic field of any planet in the Solar System, estimated to be nearly 20,000 times stronger than Earth's. This field originates from the churning layers of metallic hydrogen within the planet's interior. The magnetosphere generated by this field is vast, extending millions of kilometers into space, and is the source of intense auroral displays near the planet's poles.

The Jovian Satellites
Jupiter is orbited by a large family of natural satellites, the largest four of which—Io (moon)//), Europa (moon)//), Ganymede (moon)//), and Callisto (moon)//)—are known as the Galilean moons. These moons exhibit complex geological and potentially oceanographic activity.

Europa (moon)//): Strong evidence suggests a global subsurface liquid water ocean. Intriguingly, this ocean appears to possess a slight positive electrical charge, hypothesized to be sustained by the continuous low-level bombardment from Jupiter's magnetosphere [8].
Ganymede (moon)//): The largest moon, unique in possessing its own intrinsic magnetic field, though this field is significantly weaker and highly disorganized compared to that of …
