  1. Jupiter because of its huge size.


  2. the sun

  3. I'm not sure exactly what the question is for or from.  Any more information?  We could very well say that Earth is Lord of the Heavens.  With all the galaxies that make up this entire universe though, it's just so vast!  Who's the say which one planet is the "Lord?"

  4. idk

  5. Jupiter, because it is named after the Roman God Jupiter, who was "Lord of the Heavens."

    In Greek and Roman mythology the planet was identified with the most powerful of the gods and lord of the heavens‹the Greek god Zeus; the Roman god Jupiter.

    Ancient peoples all over the world recognized Jupiter as one of the brightest wandering lights in their skies. Only Venus is brighter, but Venus, always a morning or evening star, never rules over the dark midnight skies as Jupiter often does.

  6. Probably Jupiter.

  7. It's probably Uranus because in Greek mythology, the Lord of the Heavens (or sky) was Ouranos, or Uranus in Roman name.

  8. saturn because of its rings like a halo.

  9. Jupiter is "Lord of the Heaven's" because it is the largest planet with the most moons, 16 was the astronomers last count. It is also called the "Lord of fortune" because it goes from one sign to the next.  Jupiter remains in one sign for twelve months starting in December. December 2007 it went to Capricorn.
