About JunoCam
Junocam: Juno’s Outreach Camera | C.J. Hansen · M.A. Caplinger · A. Ingersoll · M.A. Ravine · E. Jensen · S. Bolton · G. Orton
Abstract : Junocam is a wide-angle camera designed to capture the unique polar perspective of Jupiter offered by Juno’s polar orbit. Junocam’s four-color images include the best spatial resolution ever acquired of Jupiter’s cloudtops. Junocam will look for convective clouds and lightning in thunderstorms and derive the heights of the clouds. Junocam will support Juno’s radiometer experiment by identifying any unusual atmospheric conditions such as hotspots. Junocam is on the spacecraft explicitly to reach out to the public and share the excitement of space exploration. The public is an essential part of our virtual team: amateur astronomers will supply ground-based images for use in planning, the public will weigh in on which images to acquire, and the amateur image processing community will help process the data.

“The images were taken during the spacecraft’s 66th close flyby of Jupiter on Oct. 23.
NASA’s Juno spacecraft has sent back stunning photos of Jupiter, including colorful, chaotic storms swirling through the planet’s atmosphere.
Juno completed its 66th close flyby (also referred to as a perijove) of Jupiter on Oct. 23, during which the spacecraft traveled close to the planet’s poles as well as near the world’s fifth-largest moon, Amalthea. The raw photo data captured by the spacecraft’s JunoCam during the flyby was recently processed by citizen scientists using color-enhancing filters to highlight Jupiter’s beauty (…) “, Samantha Mathewson

“NASA’s Juno spacecraft has just released stunning images of Jupiter, captured during its 66th flyby of the largest and oldest planet in our solar system.
The Juno mission has been studying the Jovian system—Jupiter, along with its rings and many moons—to learn about the giant planet’s formation and evolution with the hope that it might shed light on the development of the entire solar system, per a NASA statement. The solar-powered spacecraft launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida, in August 2011 and reached Jupiter in July 2016.

CNET Stunning Images From Jupiter Created Out of Latest NASA Juno Spacecraft Flyby
Our solar system’s largest planet got its glamour shots back as contributors interpret raw data from JunoCam.
“Since NASA’s Juno spacecraft entered Jupiter’s orbit in July 2016 and began transmitting image data, the world has gotten glimpses of the solar system’s largest planet and its moons.
But a new batch of images that have been contributed by spacewatchers using data from the mission are stunning, even by these standards. The most recent perijove, or the point when it’s closest to the planet, occurred for Juno on Oct. 23, and interpretations of the image data sent back home show jellyfish-like colors and colorful spots across the planet’s surface. (…)”, Omar Gallaga
“NASA’s Juno spacecraft has returned new images of Jupiter after its 66th close flyby as it enters the final year of its mission. The $1 billion spacecraft completed its latest close flyby on Oct. 23, 2024, dipping close to its poles, the first mission to do so.
Juno, which has been in orbit around Jupiter since July 2016, has sent back thousands of unprecedented high-resolution images of the planet’s atmosphere and several of its moons. It’s latest tranche are equally as spell-binding.

“NASA’s Juno spacecraft orbiting Jupiter has returned another spectacular set of images of the giant planet after its 65th close monthly flyby saw it enter the final year of its life.
In an elliptical orbit of Jupiter since July 2016, the school bus-sized spacecraft 65th perijove occurred on Sept. 20, when it dipped close to Jupiter’s cloud tops.
The first mission to orbit an outer planet from pole to pole, Juno is armored with a titanium radiation vault to help protect it against Jupiter’s intense radiation belts. It’s helped Juno survive way beyond its original two-year mission (…)”, Jamie Carter

“NASA’s Juno orbiter has returned its latest batch of images of giant Jupiter, which are as impressive as ever.
Despite suffering from radiation damage earlier this year, its JunoCam camera—boasting just a two-megapixel resolution—continues to take and return arresting images of the planet’s cloud tops.” , Jamie Carter
NASA’S JUNO MISSION NASA’s Juno mission captures the colorful and chaotic clouds of Jupiter
Citizen scientist Gary Eason made this image using raw data from the JunoCam instrument, applying digital processing techniques to enhance color and clarity. At the time the raw image was taken, the Juno spacecraft was about 18,000 miles (29,000 kilometers) above Jupiter’s cloud tops, at a latitude of about 68 degrees north of the equator.

SPEKTRUM DER WISSENSCHAFT Vulkanmond Io zum Greifen nah
“Die NASA-Raumsonde Juno, die seit dem Jahr 2016 auf wechselnden Bahnen den Riesenplaneten Jupiter umrundet, kam im Dezember 2023 und im Februar 2024 dem vulkanisch aktiven Jupitermond Io sehr nahe. Die Kamera JunoCam lieferte eindrucksvolle Ansichten des Trabanten, von denen wir hier eine Auswahl präsentieren.”

“The raw images captured by JunoCam have been processed by citizen scientists, who enhanced the colors and contrasts to highlight the intricate details of Jupiter’s atmosphere.“
“NASA’s Juno spacecraft has provided stunning visuals of Jupiter, showcasing the planet’s vibrant, swirling storms and distinctive moons. On October 23, during Juno’s 66th close flyby, the spacecraft ventured near the planet’s polar regions and obtained detailed images of its fifth-largest moon, Amalthea. (…)”, by Waquar Haider

“Los científicos de la misión Juno de la NASA han desarrollado el primer mapa de radiación tridimensional completo del sistema de Júpiter. Además de caracterizar la intensidad de las partículas de alta energía cerca de la órbita de la luna helada Europa, el mapa muestra cómo el entorno de radiación está esculpido por las lunas más pequeñas que orbitan cerca de los anillos de Júpiter.
El trabajo se basa en datos recopilados por el instrumento ASC (Advanced Stellar Compass) de Juno, que fue diseñada y construida por la Universidad Técnica de Dinamarca, y la Unidad de Referencia Estelar (SRU) de la nave espacial, que fue construida por Leonardo SpA en Florencia, Italia. Los dos conjuntos de datos se complementan entre sí, ayudando a los científicos de Juno a caracterizar el entorno de radiación a diferentes energías.(…)”

NASA’S JUNO MISSION NASA’S Juno Mission spots Jupiter’s tiny moon Amalthea
NASA’s Juno mission captured these views of Jupiter during its 59th close flyby of the giant planet on March 7, 2024. They provide a good look at Jupiter’s colorful belts and swirling storms, including the Great Red Spot. Close examination reveals something more: two glimpses of the tiny moon Amalthea.

To overcome this, the team came up with the Heater and Load Optimization (HALO) strategy, which pre-heats select components in order to save heater power for the duration of the eclipse. This keeps Juno's amazing data and images flowing. See more at https://t.co/mGfITRe57Y 3/3… pic.twitter.com/1KiOcepjP9
