The NASA Juno mission swooped by Jupiter's volcanic moon Io, capturing rich imagery of volcanic features. This is some of the clearest footage of Io ever documented.
Published by NASA in March 2019, the "Jupiter Marble" image by Juno's JunoCam imager. The camera and the mission were not designed to study the moons of Jupiter. [12] JunoCam has a field of view that is too wide to resolve any detail in the Jovian moons except during close flybys.
NASA's Juno spacecraft has zipped past Jupiter's poles, watched its Great Red Spot churn, and visited its largest moon. 10 years after NASA launched its Juno mission to Jupiter, these are its most ...
NASA continued the mission of the Juno spacecraft at Jupiter by conducting a flyby of Europa on 29 September 2022. [1]In Mars exploration, the European Space Agency (ESA) had partnered with Roscosmos to launch the Rosalind Franklin rover using the Kazachok lander as part of ExoMars 2022. [2]
JADE-E and JADE-I are sensors that are spread out on the spacecraft, and the EBox is located inside the Juno Radiation Vault. [2] EBox stands for Electronics Box. [2] JADE-E is for detecting electrons from 0.1 to 100 keV, and there are three JADE-E sensors on Juno. [2] JADE-I is for detecting ions from 5 eV to 50 keV. [2]
In April, NASA launched a next-generation solar sail demonstration aboard a Rocket Lab Electron. [66] [67] ESA EarthCARE launched on May 28. Joint mission with JAXA. NASA's GOES-U launched on June 25, with the capability to detect coronal mass ejections. JAXA's ALOS-4 launched on July 1. It carries PALSAR-3 (Phased Array type L-band Synthetic ...
Juno Radiation Vault (the box being lowered onto the partially constructed spacecraft) in the process of being installed on Juno, 2010 Juno Radiation Vault is shown attached, but with the top open and some of the electronics boxes inside the vault can be seen The cube shaped JRV can be seen in between the un-wrapped main dish and the larger hexagonal main spacecraft body.
