Let's imagine a computer. It is a typical example of the interconnection of different chains, countries and segments. Probably t
he technology and chips your computer has were developed through years of research in Silicon Valley, USA; but his chip was not produced there, this production was outsourced to some factory in China. Many other pieces were also produced in other parts of China or in India, Taiwan or another Asian producer. But you didn't travel to China to buy your computer. It is possible that you have purchased over the internet, on a Brazilian website. Some company had to buy it from China for you, and some other company transported it to Brazil (and another one delivered to your home). Along with the computer came manuals in several languages. In addition, you also received several software, which were developed in another part of the world, and if you have any questions you will call the call center, which can be located anywhere in the world (say, in Mexico) and will have service in Portuguese. What scenario made the process described in this image and text possible?
A) The adoption of the Fordist production method in the assembly line of the aerial sector.

The reason the deepest layer that this probe was able to directly sample is just the gaseous hydrogen layer is because Jupiter's upper atmosphere is about 88–92% hydrogen and 8–12% helium by percent volume of gas molecules. So the 200km this problem was able to cover is still composed of gaseous hydrogen.
