the spacecraft named juno has been our eyes and ears near the chaotic planet jupiter
it hovers around the planet and during its latest flyby captured unique developments churning on the
surface of jupiter that is big and monstrous in nature stay till the end to find out about the

the juno spacecraft during its 43rd close encounter with jupiter captured massive
storms brewing near the planet's north pole using the junocam instrument the probe snapped vortices
of hurricane-like spiral wind patterns churning on the surface that is bigger than what we see
on earth the american space agency nasa claimed that the images clicked by the spacecraft show
storms that could be over 50 kilometers in height and hundreds of kilometers across scientists are
trying to understand the reasons why these storms take place on the planet which is a riot of colors
when seen from land and space-based telescopes on earth they want to understand the various shapes
sizes and colors that depend on the orientation of and spin along with the poles they form
they have been baffled at the cyclones which spin counter-clockwise in the northern hemisphere
and clockwise in the southern and anti-cyclones which rotate clockwise in the northern hemisphere
and counter-clockwise in the southern hemisphere and exhibit very different colors and shapes
did you know that a storm has been swirling in jupiter's atmosphere jupiter has a great
red spot which is a massive storm that has been swirling for at least 150 years
according to the reports of nasa the red spot extends around 500 kilometers beneath the cloud
tops where winds peak at around 650 kilometers per hour as far as the scales are concerned it
is big enough to fit an entire earth inside of them on july 10 2017 a rare picture was taken of
the great red spot when the spacecraft was about 13 840 kilometers above the cloud tops juno was
launched into space from nasa's cape canaveral air force station on august 5th 2011. this spacecraft
has been studying the planet's magnetosphere composition and atmosphere ever since it entered
the gas giant's orbit in 2016. astronomers were stunned to look at the results delivered by juno
and since then jupiter has emerged as a new subject of interest for astronomers
the new era of its exploration will begin with the launch of the european space agency juice
mission there has been a recent development in studying the images released by the spacecraft
nasa has called for citizen scientists to spot and help in categorizing these storms and other
atmospheric phenomena visible in junocam photos of jupiter according to the american space agency
this process does not require specialized training or software and can be done by anyone
anywhere with a cell phone or laptop juno has been continuing to go around the planet and its moon
examining it throughout in addition the james webb space telescope has also started science
operations and even looked at the planets during its test phase besides nasa released some images
during the commissioning of the observatory where jwst saw distinct bands that encircle the planet
as well as the great red spot a storm big enough to swallow the earth
it appears to be white in some images due to the way webb's infrared image was processed
juno vs elon's ventures in 2014 the ceo of tesla elon musk announced that he wanted to establish
a colony on mars with his space company spacex he upped the stakes in the race to become the
first to place humans further into space than ever before unfortunately musk lost this race
to some legos as the juno space probe approached the planet jupiter on 4 july 2016 three lucky
passengers on board claimed to be the first to reach the fifth rock from our sun well they may
have resembled the human form but they were not actually breathing they were made out of aluminum
because three lego minifigures were placed aboard the nasa mission in 2011 and have been
drifting toward jupiter for several years so what could have been the mission of the crew on board
nasa wanted to inspire children to explore science technology and engineering they may as well become
astronauts embarking on the same journey one day a joint outreach and educational program
named lego bricks in space was established between nasa and the lego group before the launch of the
spacecraft juno the main goal of the space probe was to understand the origin and evolution of the
jupiter planet however the minifigures entered the uncharted territory as symbolic space scouts
according to the image captured by the web telescope jupiter shines like a knight
after mesmerizing the world with the first scientific images of the ancient universe
the jwst has trained its lenses towards our own solar system it has set its first target
which is jupiter jupiter is a colorful planet nasa released an image recently that was taken during
the commissioning of the flying observatory that demonstrates jupiter in all its glory
this image was released on the space telescope science institute's mikulski archive for space
telescopes figuring out how they form is key to understanding jupiter's atmosphere as well
as the fluid dynamics and cloud chemistry that create the planet's other atmospheric features
nasa said in a statement as it released the latest images from the biggest planet in the solar system
several scientists and research agencies have been in a search for life beyond earth the ultimate
goal of their deep space exploration and endeavors was to search planets for a possible atmosphere
for humans to survive elon musk mentioned some years ago that he will be colonizing mars
despite some of the obstacles spacex has faced musk has not lost sight of the mission's main
objective and has only had to postpone the arrival of humans on mars for three more years
in march 2022 musk announced on twitter that the new date for man to finally set
foot on mars would be 2029 exactly 60 years after the first moon landing was achieved
in 1969 starship has already achieved some successful high altitude flights although
the starship has still not reached space the goal is for this spacecraft to carry astronauts to the
moon for nasa and eventually to mars no time is ideal to undertake a mission such as reaching mars
earth and mars move around the sun and both of these planets approach each other and then move
away so it is necessary to take advantage of the windows in which the distance is smaller
such type of windows involving the launch of a spacecraft to mars is only available at the end of
this year end of 2024 end of 2026 and end of 2028 or beginning of 2029. while we are all looking on
mars another world is teeming with possibilities this world has its moon oceans and bodies with
their own magnetic field the size of this moon is beyond our imagination jupiter is the fifth planet
in our solar system with its own system that is characterized by its moon unique environment and
surface features that present a riot of colors and images captured by the hubble space telescope
the juice mission will arrive in this system to uncover the secrets that could make jupiter a
potential candidate for long-term exploration and even a target for future interplanetary missions
the jupiter icy moons explorer mission is being developed by the european space agency they have
planned to launch in april 2023 on an ariane 5 rocket from europe's spaceport in french guiana
the destination of this mission will be the jupiter system which will be uncovered layer by
layer in a series of 35 jovian moon flybys the juice mission will look at the planets and the
moon when it arrives in the jovian system in the early 2030s the spacecraft will be equipped with
85 square meter solar winds it will make detailed observations of the giant gas planet and its three
large ocean-bearing moons ganymede callisto and europa the juno spacecraft is orbiting jupiter and
it has beamed back data from its last close flyby of the planet revealing its colors the largest
planet in our solar system has long been at the center of curiosity for astronomers and juno is
revealing its secrets layer by layer on april 9 2022 the spacecraft conducted its latest flyby
and captured a series of images from its junocam demonstrating the planet citizen scientist andrea
luck created this animated sequence using raw juno cam image data during the flyby
juno went 10 times closer than the satellites that are in geosynchronous orbit to earth
the spacecraft was traveling at a speed about five times faster than the apollo missions when
they left earth for the moon do tell us your views in the comment section about the possibilities of
