Juno also studies Jupiter's deep winds, [58] [59] which can reach speeds of 600 km/h. [60] [61] Among early results, Juno gathered information about Jovian lightning that revised earlier theories. [62] Juno provided the first views of Jupiter's north pole, as well as insights about Jupiter's aurorae, magnetic field, and atmosphere. [63]
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.
Juno is a Jupiter exploration mission which launched on August 5, 2011, and arrived in July 2016. It is the first solar-powered spacecraft to explore an outer planet. The craft was placed into a polar orbit in order to study the planet's magnetic field and internal structure
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 ] It is designed to return data in situ on Jupiter's auroral region and magnetospheric plasmas, by observing electrons and ions in this region. [ 2 ]
Global image of Jupiter's moon Io acquired by Juno's JunoCam camera on 30 December 2023. The Juno spacecraft was launched in 2011 and entered orbit around Jupiter on July 5, 2016. Juno ' s mission is primarily focused on improving our understanding of Jupiter's interior, magnetic field, aurorae, and polar atmosphere. [88]
Juno would go on to enter Jupiter's orbit in July 2016. [3] The magnetosphere blocks the charged particles of the solar wind, with the number of solar wind particles Juno encountered dropping 100-fold when it entered the Jovian magnetosphere. [3] Before Juno entered it, it was encountering about 16 solar wind particles per cubic inch of space. [3]
1900 indexed county and township pocket map showing Dade County. Juno was a town in Palm Beach County, Florida.Settlement in Juno dated back to at least early 1889, when residents of Dade County, which then stretched from modern-day Martin County to Miami-Dade County, voted for the area to become the county seat.
determine the dynamics of Jupiter's interior; determine the three-dimensional structure of the polar magnetosphere and its auroras. Jupiter has the strongest and biggest magnetic fields known to exist in the solar system. [6] Studying these fields is one of the goals of the Juno mission, and in particular the task rests on the Magnetometer ...
