Jupiter is the de facto and the most important homeworld of the Imperial Navy. The space docks and workshops that circle Jupiter, like a ring of moons, are home to the tens of millions of (if not billions of) technomat and drone Servitors that work under the supervision of Artisan and Rune Priest Tech-priests to build the Imperial Navy's warships.

	It is known that as far back as the Horus Heresy, Jupiter held industrial and colonial cohorts with clouds of satellites along with Trojan asteroids containing human colonies, factories along with forges. The Jovian colonies were powered by the radiation that surged from the massive planet and much of the industry fed on the mineral riches that had been yielded from centuries of exploitation, with its full potential having not been fully exhausted. Due to these factors, Jupiter served as Terra's shipyards and its skies were always filled with starships with spacedocks and fabricatories around the various moons that worked tirelessly to construct anything from single manned Raven Interceptors to gargantuan hulls of [[Emperor-class Battleship]]s.

	Humans have probably known of Jupiter since prehistoric times (since it being the 3rd brightest object in the night sky, behind [[Venus]] and (obviously) [[Luna\|the Moon]], means it's pretty fucking hard to miss), though obviously they wouldn't know ''what'' it was for a long time. The first records we have of it being observed in any capacity come from Babylon in around 7-8,000 BC. (So around the time the [[Emprah]] was born, if you don't know your dates.) The Chinese also based a bunch of shit off their observations of Jupiter's orbit of ~12 years, such as the well-known Chinese Zodiac - though a Hellenistic Greek astronomer would later narrow that orbit down to the scientifically-accurate 11.86 years, meaning [[Derp\|the Zodiac is by now well out-of-sync with Jupiter]].

It's also one of the classical planets of alchemy, representing tin and being associated with Thursday.

			Come the 17th century, and good ol' Galileo invented the telescope and chose to demonstrate it by looking at Jupiter. As such, he's credited with discovering that Jupiter has moons, among other things he saw with the nifty sight-extender. Others would continue in his footsteps (as he was unfortunately imprisoned for [[Heresy\|going against Church dogma]]) and figure out a fuckton about the Solar System's overweight gasball. Around this time the famous Great Red Spot, a giant storm that dwarfs the Earth, started on Jupiter and has been raging ever since.

	Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun, and also the most massive by a large margin (having two-and-a-half times the mass of all the other planets combined). It's something of a gravitational bully, as it tugs on ''anything'' that dares to get even remotely close to its orbit. It's even believed that an early Jupiter is the reason why none of the inner solar system planets are gas giants themselves - it just ate most of the mass that could make them giants in the first place.

	During the [[Age of Strife]], Jupiter's moons became occupied by [[Xenos]] overlords which enslaved the human inhabitants and did typical [[grimdark\|Age of Strife stuff to them]]. These moons were not liberated from alien control until the coming of the Emperor in the early days of the [[Great Crusade]]. The Human Jovian Void Clans were utilized by the Emperor during the Great Crusade where their shipyards gained fame for producing massive amounts of high-quality warships thanks to technology they guarded [[heresy\|''even'']] from the Mechanicum.

	During the [[Horus Heresy]] Jupiter was the center of [[Rogal Dorn]]'s third defensive sphere under the command of Imperial Fists Captain Efried. In the later stages of the [[Solar War]], the massive array of moons and orbital habitations of Jupiter were captured by [[Iron Warriors]] forces led by [[Perturabo]]. Instead of reducing every pocket of loyalist resistance or wasting his time during his drive to Terra to occupy the many habitation zones around Jupiter, Perturabo in an unorthodox and un-Perturabo move, instead unleashed fleets of Pirates, traitor Imperial Army, [[Night Lords]], and [[Emperor's Children]] to terrorize and subdue the region. Jupiter was subsequently reclaimed by the Imperium during the [[Great Scouring]] after the traitor defeat in the [[Siege of Terra]].
