Kochi Point 11: Casting Jupiter

Video source: License: NASA, JUNO, SWRI, MSSS, Gerald Eichstadt; Music: Moonlight Sonata

Note: Jupiter is here! The Juno automatic detection of the American Aerospace Administration is continuously flying around the extreme elliptical orbit of the largest planet of the solar system. This special video comes from the 11th Muzu period in early 2018. This is the eleventh time Juno has passed Jupiter since Jupiter in mid -2016. This color enhanced delay video covers about 4 hours and changes between the images taken by the 36 groups of Jano cameras. When the video began to approach Jupiter from the north, Jupiter entered the mirror from below the screen. When Juno reached the closest to Jupiter (about 3,500 kilometers above Jupiter Genting), it shot this huge planet in an extremely fine way. Juno passes through the bright area and dark belt surrounding Jupiter, and countless rotating circular storms -many of them are larger than the hurricane on the earth. After the Juno was near the wooden point, Jupiter gradually retreated to the distance, and then showed the unusual cloud over the south of Jupiter. In order to obtain the required scientific data, Juno dived to a place close to Jupiter, so that its instruments were exposed to very high -level radiation.
