Extreme Solar Wind Spins Up a Jovian: Temperature View | SpaceSim

A jovian planet vaguely modeled on Jupiter is placed in orbit around a star modeled after the Sun except with much higher surface temperature, putting off a lot of solar wind as a result. This, as the jovian orbits, begins to spin up the planet from no rotation to rotating so fast the surface/atmosphere begins to be pulled off by the same solar wind.
