  1. NASA Found a Green Flash on Jupiter and It Should Not Be There

    A mysterious "Green Flash" has been detected in Jupiter’s upper atmosphere, and it defies current meteorological models. This isn't standard aurora activity; the localized energy burst suggests an unknown chemical reaction—or an artificial source within the gas giant’s clouds. NASA’s Juno probe is moving in for a closer look.

  2. We Finally Know What Jupiter’s Core Looks Like
    NASA’s Juno mission has shattered our expectations of the Gas Giant’s interior. Instead of a solid rocky heart, Jupiter possesses a "fuzzy" or dilute core that gradually blends into its hydrogen layers. This "dilute core" suggests a violent history of massive planetary collisions that permanently scrambled the planet's innards.

  4. Prospect of Life in Europa’s Ocean: Juno Mission finds low Oxygen Production  
    Europa, one of the largest satellites of Jupiter has a thick water-ice crust and a vast subsurface saltwater ocean beneath its icy surface hence...........

  5. @NASA #nasa Right now, NASA experts are talking about two of Jupiter's captivating moons: icy Europa and volcanic Io. Use #AskNASA to get your questions in about our #JunoMission exploring these two worlds, and get the latest science.x.com/nasa/status/176579942779

  6. After swooping by Jupiter's tortured moon on Feb. 3, NASA's Juno spacecraft beamed back some of the closest-ever images of this unique world.

  7. Since everyone else has been having a go, here's my New Year's Eve attempt at a colour image of Jupiter's volcanic moon, Io.

    From the data taken by NASA's Juno mission during its 30 December 2023 flyby.

    Am quite pleased with how it came out, though I'm a long way from competing with the true planetary imaging masters 🙂👍

    Will upload to Flickr later on.

    Happy New Year 🍾🥂

  8. 🟠 Magnifique image de la lune volcanique #Io de #Jupiter prise ce 30 décembre par l'instrument JunoCam à bord de notre #JunoMission. La sonde est passée au plus près à une altitude d'environ 2 500 kilomètres.

  9. Fresh from Jupiter, we have new views of its active moon Io, thanks to the #JunoMission. JunoCam even caught a glimpse of a volcanic plume! This is Prometheus, the "Old Faithful of Io." More images: missionjuno.swri.edu/junocam/p

  10. Happening now: the #JunoMission spacecraft is approaching Jupiter's volcanic moon Io. Follow along using this real-time simulation based on actual NASA data - eyes.nasa.gov/apps/solar-syste

  11. Our #JunoMission is making ever closer passes by Jupiter’s moon Io. The spacecraft will take another look at the active, volcanic moon on July 30 – with even closer flybys to come. 🌋 missionjuno.swri.edu/news/nasa

  12. So many pics...

    The legacy of exploration at the giant planet continues today with the #JunoMission, @NASAWebb, and soon, @EuropaClipper

  13. Congratulations to the NANOGrav team! We're excited that our #JunoMission to Jupiter played a role in this historic discovery by providing key data about the solar system's barycenter. spaceplace.nasa.gov/barycenter

  14. Today our #JunoMission completed its 52nd close pass by Jupiter! Earlier this year, it captured this view of storms and hazes on the giant planet. missionjuno.swri.edu/news/nasa

  15. Oh hello, Io! During its 51st close flyby of Jupiter on May 16, our #JunoMission captured these views of Jupiter's volcanic moon Io.

  16. Io aglow! Our #JunoMission observed Jupiter's moon Io in visible and infrared light, yielding this composite view showing hot spots across the surface of the solar system's most volcanically active world. missionjuno.swri.edu/news/nasa

  17. 50/50: On the heels of the #JunoMission's 50th orbit of Jupiter, NASA's Ingenuity #MarsHelicopter has completed its 50th flight on Mars. The numbers are a coincidence, but the pace of exploration across the solar system is not! Join us for the journey: solarsystem.nasa.gov

  20. Where else in the solar system do we see active volcanoes? Jupiter's moon Io – seen here by @NASAVoyager and in infrared light by the #JunoMission – is continually tugged by gravity from Jupiter and its other moons, resulting in hundreds of volcanoes. solarsystem.nasa.gov/io

  22. For no particular reason, we're thinking about Jupiter's volcanic moon Io today. Our #JunoMission will fly by it on March 1, but you can make a virtual visit anytime at: solarsystem.nasa.gov/io

    Oh, and happy #NationalPizzaDay

  23. The JunoCam instrument aboard the #JunoMission spacecraft captured this image of Jupiter's volcanic moon Io on Dec. 14 from a distance of about 40,000 miles (64,000 kilometers). The team expects additional images from the pass to be available soon at missionjuno.swri.edu/junocam/p
