Closest photo of lo by the Juno cam!

Such a clear detailed photograph

JunoCam!

Launched in 2006, this year (2024) marks its mission end. I love that they stuck another camera on the thing just to take pretty pictures. No direct science benefit anticipated. Basically a PR stunt.

AND YET when artists got ahold of the raw image data they transformed it in ways that helped the scientific community make breakthroughs nobody anticipated.

Stunning New Photos of Jupiter from Juno's Recent Flyby

The biggest planet in our solar system by far, Jupiter is still very much unexplored, with so much more to learn about its swirling storms, and highly active gaseous surface. A recent flyby from NASA’s Juno spacecraft shows us more details of the planet, its 66th trip around the celestial body. While Juno’s onboard cameras can take images, NASA does not have a dedicated team to process these for…

Rebuilding some old stuff from junocam.

The Juno spacecraft has one optical camera (its weird), all this camera does is dump images online for people to parse.

the problem is that they just dump it.

Back in like 2020 I parsed this by hand using paint and it took a while™. Now I have tools that I can use on this data and I can build scripts to parse it all. There's still a lot that needs to be worked on, but the progress is running nicely. Currently all the bands are seperate and in their own files. I just need to combine all the channels back into one image (I did it by hand up top). Some of the combining has caused some weird distortions (jupiter is not a sphere anmore so I'll probably need to do a lot of transformations), but it's late and thats for tomorrow.

Also looking at those photos I'm seeing something. gotta start collecting and processing

Pluma de Io capturada por Juno Cam

La nave espacial Juno de la NASA capturó una imagen impresionante de la pluma de Io, la luna más volcánicamente activa del Sistema Solar. La imagen, tomada el 15 de octubre de 2023, muestra la pluma elevándose desde el volcán Pillan Patera en la superficie de Io. La pluma es de color rojo brillante y se extiende hasta una altura de varios cientos de kilómetros. Está compuesta de una variedad de…

This highly stylized view of Jupiter's icy moon Europa is based on an image captured by JunoCam, the public engagement camera aboard NASA's Juno spacecraft, during the mission's close flyby on Sept. 29, 2022. Citizen scientist Fernando Garcia Navarro created the image by processing a JunoCam previously worked on by fellow citizen scientist Kevin M. Gill. Navarro calls his rendering "Fall Colors of Europa."

Perijove 11: Passing Jupiter Video Credit & License: NASA, Juno, SwRI, MSSS, Gerald Eichstadt; Music: Moonlight Sonata (Ludwig van Beethoven)

Explanation: Here comes Jupiter. NASA's robotic spacecraft Juno is continuing on its highly elongated orbits around our Solar System's largest planet. The featured video is from perijove 11 in early 2018, the eleventh time Juno passed near Jupiter since it arrived in mid-2016. This time-lapse, color-enhanced movie covers about four hours and morphs between 36 JunoCam images. The video begins with Jupiter rising as Juno approaches from the north. As Juno reaches its closest view -- from about 3,500 kilometers over Jupiter's cloud tops -- the spacecraft captures the great planet in tremendous detail. Juno passes light zones and dark belts of clouds that circle the planet, as well as numerous swirling circular storms, many of which are larger than hurricanes on Earth. After the perijove, Jupiter recedes into the distance, then displaying the unusual clouds that appear over Jupiter's south. To get desired science data, Juno swoops so close to Jupiter that its instruments are exposed to very high levels of radiation.

Jupiter's moon, Io, is the most volcanic body in the Solar System. NASA's Juno spacecraft has been getting closer and closer to Io in the last couple of years, giving us our first close-up images of the moon in 25 years. Recent JunoCam images show a new volcano that appeared sometime after the Galileo spacecraft visited the region. The new volcano is just south of Io's equator. Since tidal heating from Jupiter causes Io's volcanic activity, most volcanoes are in the moon's equatorial region, within about 30 degrees north and south of the equator.

[ghelgheli]

babe wake up new junocam images of Io just dropped. look at all that tidal volcanism. let's go for a swim in some Jovian moon lava pools.

The Jupiter picture you reblogged is AI. There's someone in the comments of it desperately trying to convince people it's not AI by linking the actual Nasa JunoCam gallery that was scraped to make the image, and obviously failing pretty hard.

Here's a real close-up Jupiter picture from the gallery for your viewing pleasure (sense Tumblr doesn't let you send links through asks)

man damn cant have shit in detroit 😩

this has happened like 4 times now im just gonna stop reblogging pictures that arent explicitly like. paintings and stuff when im half asleep

this is v lovely tho thank you for sharing (and letting me know!)
