Nasa Juno Probe

NASA's Juno spacecraft recently captured the complex colours and structure of Jupiter's surface. The striking image showed swirls of turquoise, milky white, deep ochre and dark blue covering the planet's surface in a mesmerising manner.

From our Moon to Mars to Jupiter, researchers are baring all guns to find more about the world around us. While the current focus is on the Moon and Mars, there already is a probe orbiting Jupiter. Named Juno, the probe's goal is to understand the origin and evolution of the solar system's largest planet.

Data from NASA's Juno spacecraft is providing a deeper understanding of Jupiter's wondrous and violent atmosphere including its Great Red Spot, finding that this immense swirling storm extends much further down than expected.

NASA's Juno spacecraft beamed back a stunning image of a massive, raging storm in Jupiter's northern hemisphere, captured by the probe during its ninth close flyby of the gas giant planet. The image was taken on October 24, when the spacecraft was about 10,108 kilometres away from the tops of the clouds of Jupiter

It will take days for readings captured by Juno's array of cameras and other instruments to be delivered to scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

A NASA spacecraft, Juno, has successfully peered into the giant storm raging on Jupiter, known as the Great Red Spot, and its first pictures should be out in days, the US space agency said Tuesday.

Juno, which earlier this month marked its first year in orbit of the gas giant, will offer "humanity's first up-close and personal view of the gigantic feature."

"Jupiter's mysterious Great Red Spot is probably the best-known feature of Jupiter," said Scott Bolton, principal investigator of Juno from the Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio, Texas.

"We're puzzled as to how they could be formed, how stable the configuration is, and why Jupiter's north pole doesn't look like the south pole," said Scott Bolton, Juno principal investigator from the Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio.

NASA's Juno probe spaceship circling Jupiter has spotted massive cyclones at the gas giant's poles, revealing stunning new details about our solar system's largest planet.

NASA's solar-powered Juno spacecraft, which has been probing Jupiter since July last year, will remain in its current 53-day orbit around the gas giant planet for the remainder of its mission.

NASA has offered space enthusiasts an opportunity to vote on the site of images that the JunoCam will capture.

In its latest close flyby of Jupiter, NASA's Juno spacecraft captured the seventh of eight features forming a 'string of pearls' -- massive counterclockwise rotating storms that appear as white ovals in the gas giant's southern hemisphere, the US space agency said on Wednesday.

The team is still investigating the cause of the reboot and assessing two main engine check valves.
