5 Jupiter pics captured by NASA Juno

NASA's Juno spacecraft has been orbiting Jupiter since 2016, capturing incredible images and revealing new secrets about the gas giant’s atmosphere and magnetic field.

NASA’s Juno spacecraft continues to capture breathtaking images of Jupiter.

Launched in 2011, Juno entered Jupiter's orbit in 2016, aiming to study the planet’s atmosphere, magnetic field, and deep interior.

Jupiter images help scientists understand Jupiter’s weather systems, including its famous Great Red Spot, and its complex cloud structures.

Juno’s high-resolution cameras have revealed vivid and dynamic storm patterns across the planet's surface.

The Great Red Spot, a massive storm, is visible in many of Juno’s images, providing new insights into its size and intensity.

Juno has also captured unique images of Jupiter's poles, where massive cyclones swirl, showing different weather dynamics from the equator.

The spacecraft’s images highlight Jupiter's distinct cloud bands and their varied colours, which change as you move across the planet’s atmosphere.

The spacecraft’s JunoCam camera is a key tool in capturing detailed images.
