We show that the strongly-interacting massive particle (SIMP) with mass of 3 x 10(6) - 10(7) GeV is astrophysically interesting as a dark matter candidate in the galactic halo. The annihilation of SIMPs inside Jupiter naturally explains the intrinsic heat flux irrespective of details of the planetary models. We discuss its effect in all Jovian planets as well as in the Sun and the Earth. We also comment that such a SIMP is accommodated in a class of hadronic axion models.
