Astronomers operating the James Webb Space Telescope have been sharing dramatic close-up images of Jupiter. You can even see its rings. Jaw-dropping images of Jupiter from the James Webb Space ...
Wider and flatter than the Earth's magnetosphere, Jupiter's is stronger by an order of magnitude, while its magnetic moment is roughly 18,000 times larger. The existence of Jupiter's magnetic field was first inferred from observations of radio emissions at the end of the 1950s and was directly observed by the Pioneer 10 spacecraft in 1973.
The most detailed map of Jupiter in existence, according to Nasa. This picture well illustrates the rings of Jupiter, as well as the south pole (which I didn't know existed). It says on the Nasa page that it is the most detailed map of Jupiter ever made. It was constructed with images taken by Cassini, and appears in the article Jupiter. The ...
English: Diagram of Jupiter, its interior, surface features, rings, and inner moons. A 3D renderer was used to make the skeleton for this picture so everything is drawn to scale (except the aurorae). F-stop used is estimated at f/0.308. Sources: 1, 2, 3, and the wikipedia articles Jupiter & Rings of Jupiter.
Webb's new images of Jupiter showcase its auroras, rings, and extremely faint galaxies, which Hubble can't see. Side-by-side Jupiter images show James Webb's infrared prowess.
Jupiter may be best known as the planetary titan of our solar system with a comparatively small red mark — that still dwarfs the entirety of Earth — and rows of striations going from pole to pole.

The magnetosphere of Jupiter is the cavity created in the solar wind by Jupiter's magnetic field.Extending up to seven million kilometers in the Sun's direction and almost to the orbit of Saturn in the opposite direction, Jupiter's magnetosphere is the largest and most powerful of any planetary magnetosphere in the Solar System, and by volume the largest known continuous structure in the Solar ...
