Artist's impression of a water clouds gas giant.
Artist's impression of a water clouds gas giant. Gaseous giants in class II are too warm to form ammonia clouds; instead their clouds are made up of water vapor. Even though the clouds on such a planet would be similar to those of Earth, the atmosphere would still consist mainly of hydrogen and hydrogen-rich molecules such as methane.
