For the first time, humans can discover Jupiter's deepest mystery

All thanks to a NASA project from 2011, which has allowed people to approach Jupiter at the closest distance ever.

On July 4, 2016, mankind will approach Jupiter at the closest distance ever. All thanks to a satellite named Juno - launched by NASA in 2011 with the aim of approaching and studying Jupiter.

And if exactly what NASA anticipated, Juno will change the whole view of solar system physics.

This will be the first opportunity so far that humans can deepen the study of Jupiter - the largest planet in the solar system. It is known that the planet is 11 times larger than the Earth but has no surface. The entire planet is a giant mass of gas, mainly hydrogen and helium.

Juno satellites are like a giant 3-wing fan, powered by solar energy. This is also the first time NASA sends a solar powered spacecraft to such a far place. As New Horizons ships around Pluto, it must operate with plutonium.

We will look forward to the best pictures Juno brings.

But what will Juno do? The most outstanding is . taking photos . We will look forward to the best pictures Juno brings. However, NASA said that the radiation from the planet will soon ruin Juno's camera lens after only 7 orbits.

Juno will also have to learn about super giant aurora at Jupiter's two poles . These are extremely great aurora, which can span tens of thousands of kilometers.

By using JADE (Jovian Auroral Distributions Experiment) , Juno will perform electrons analysis, and we will know what made that auroral block.

Another Juno mission is to study the planet's gravitational force, thereby determining whether Jupiter doesn't have a solid surface, or that this is just a giant gas sphere.

And finally, Jupiter is so huge, its gravity is also extremely large. Therefore, it retains almost intact everything since the planet was formed.

This means that this planet is like a mysterious ark, which helps us to open our eyes to the time when our solar system was formed.
