Jupiter’s 3D Atmosphere Revealed by NASA’s Juno Spacecraft (Media Briefing)
The science team for our Juno spacecraft at Jupiter will reveal new findings that provide the first 3D look at how the planet’s roiling atmosphere operates underneath the top layers of clouds, and how these revelations offer insight into the atmospheres of giant planets elsewhere in the universe.
The event will take place at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California, which manages the Juno mission.
