Shallow Lightning on Jupiter (NASA Visualization, feat. Music by Vangelis)
This animation takes the viewer on a simulated journey into Jupiter's exotic
high-altitude electrical storms. Get an up-close view of Mission Juno's newly
discovered "shallow lighting" flashes and dive into the violent atmospheric jet of
the Nautilus cloud. The smallest white "pop-up" clouds on top of the Nautilus are
about 100 km across. The ride navigates through Jupiter's towering
thunderstorms, dodging the spray of ammonia-water rain, and shalow lighting
flashes. At these altitudes -- too cold for pure liquid water to exit - ammonia
gas acts like an antifreeze that melts the water ice crystals flung up to these
heights by Jupiter's powerful storms - giving Jupiter an unexpected
ammonia-water cloud that can electrify the sky. The animation was created by
combining an image of high-altitude clouds from the JunoCam imager on NASA's
Juno spacecraft with a computer-generated animation.
