    Why does everything look flat even though the Earth is round?

    Because the Earth is massive compared to you. It's impossible to see a curve when the curve is very small which make it indetectable by our vision.

    Is Jupiter a failed star?

    No, I don't think it's a failed star. You called this a funny thought, so I'll take your statement lightly and just answer based on what I know and what I found online. Jupiter has to be 70-80 times more massive to be considered a brown dwarf. There is no way Jupiter is going to gain that much...

    Is Jupiter a failed star?

    No, it's not. Jupiter would have to be 70-80 times more massive in order for it to be considered a brown dwarf (Failed star). Jupiter is large when compared to our solar system, but there are many exoplanets larger than Jupiter. I would say that Jupiter is not a failed star or close to being one.
