NASAs Juno Spacecraft Flies Pastlo and Jupiter, With Music by Vangelis
On May 16, 2023, NASA's Juno spacecraft flew
bast Jupiter's volcanic moon lo, and then the gas
giant soon after. lo is the most volcanically active
body in the solar system. Slightly larger than
Earth's moon, lo is a world in constant torment.
Not only is the biggest planet in the solar system
forever pulling at it gravitationally, but so are its
Galilean siblings - Europa and the biggest moon
in the solar system, Ganymede. The result is that
lo is continuously stretched and squeezed
actions linked to the creation of the lava seen
erupting from its many volcanoes
This rendering provides a "starship captain" point
of view of the flyby, using images from JunoCam
For both targets, lo and Jupiter, raw JunoCam
images were reprojected into views similar to the
perspective of a consumer camera. The lo flyby
and the Jupiter approach movie were rendered
separately and composed into a synchronous
split-screen video.
Launched on Aug. 5, 2011, Juno embarked on a
5-year journey to Jupiter. Its mission: to probe
beneath the planet's dense clouds and answer
questions about the origin and evolution of
Jupiter, our solar system, and giant planets in
general across the cosmos. Juno arrived at the
gas giant on July 4, 2016, after a 1.7-billion-mile
journey, and settled into a 53-day polar orbit
stretching from just above Jupiter's cloud tops to
the outer reaches of the Jovian magnetosphere
Now in its extended mission, NASA's most distant
planetary orbiter continues doing flybys of Jupiter
and its moons.
