Pictures of Jupiter's most powerful storm, have been transmitted to Earth, giving eager scientist close-up views of the 10,000-mile-wide anticyclone where winds have been howling for at least 187 years.
A new study suggests that the early Solar System was quickly divided in two, with the rapidly forming Jupiter creating the dividing line.
The original plans for the Juno mission to Jupiter didn’t include a color camera. But a camera was added to the manifest, and the incredible images from the JunoCam have been grabbing the spotlight.
NASA is releasing Juno’s first scientific results and Jupiter appears a lot weirder than anyone thought it would be.
New observations suggests that the largest of Jupiter's Moon Io lakes, Loki Patera, produces enormous waves that repeatedly flow around the molten surface.
The image was taken on 11 December 2016 at 1744 UT, from an altitude of about 52,200 kilometres above the planet’s beautiful cloud tops.
The JunoCam captured this image on 2 February 2017, at 1313 GMT, at an altitude of 14,500 kilometres above the giant planet’s cloud tops.
They say the shortest distance between two points is a straight line, but for JUICE—a European Space Agency-led, Jupiter-bound probe scheduled to launch in 2022.
The data was collected when the spacecraft made its first orbital pass of the gas giant on Aug 27, 2016, with all spacecraft instruments turned on. The frequency range of these signals is from 7 to 140 kilohertz.
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope took direct ultraviolet images of the icy moon Europa transiting across the disk of Jupiter. Out of ten observations, Hubble saw what may be water vapor plumes on three of the images.
NASA's Juno spacecraft has sent back the first-ever images of Jupiter's north pole, taken during the spacecraft's first flyby of the planet with its instruments switched on.
A NASA news release describes a recently published study which has found that Jupiter’s Great Red Spot appears to act as a heat source and is likely the reason behind the planet’s surprisingly high upper atmospheric temperatures.
This image taken by NASA's Juno spacecraft is one of the first to be taken by the probe since it entered Jupiter's orbit last week.
On July 4, 2016, NASA's Juno spacecraft will plunge into uncharted territory, entering orbit around the gas giant and passing closer than any spacecraft before. Juno will see Jupiter for what it really is.
Using the upgraded Very Large Array, astronomers have produced a detailed radio map of the upper 100 kilometers of Jupiter
