Juno has captured incredible images of Jupiter!
NASA has just completed the 10th high-speed flight around Jupiter on December 16.
Accordingly, the probe flew very close to the giant gas planet and captured photos with the JunoCam device every 53 days, while traveling at a maximum speed of nearly 210 km / h.
On Earth, we have to take a few days, or sometimes a few weeks to receive photos sent. But obviously after viewing the picture you will understand why this wait is worth it.

The most recent set of photos that Juno captured showed clouds and endless swirling storms like virtual price c. Researchers at NASA and Southwest Research Institute uploaded raw image data on their website at the end of last December, and then many people processed black-and-white photos into beautiful color photographs. According to a graphic expert in the UK, who regularly handles NASA photos, praises Jupiter's beauty but does not forget to warn that it cannot be too close to the planet because it will kill you.

NASA launched Juno in 2011, and it took nearly five years for the probe to reach Jupiter.
Juno's trajectory takes it away from Jupiter, then quickly approaches the planet to avoid the electronic devices on board affected by Jupiter's harsh radiation.
Throughout each of Juno's 53.5-day trajectories - also called perijove - JunoCam records new sets of Jupiter.
This is the only spacecraft ever to fly the polar regions of Jupiter .
Scientists are trying to understand what the cloud swirls in the polar regions of this giant gas planet.
Cloud groups are often concentrated into strips, which is a difficult problem for researchers.
Some storms on Jupiter are even larger than the Earth's diameter.
The full set of 10 images captured by JunoCam in a flying trajectory looks like this one.
NASA hopes Juno will fly around Jupiter's orbit for at least a few more years, and will continue to "shoot" the Earth with stunning new images of this gas planet.
But even so, this space agency will eventually destroy the $ 1 billion exploration ship mentioned above. This will help prevent a crash of a visit even though Jupiter's Europa Ice Moon, which may have an ocean and alien life.
Half of Jupiter's moon Europa ice is taken by NASA's Galileo spacecraft in the late 1990s.
