Juno spacecraft straightens Jupiter

The US Space and Aeronautics Agency (NASA) said the Juno spacecraft had successfully diverted and was ready to fulfill Jupiter's mission to explore Jupiter.

The Juno ship's 30-minute main engine burn has outlined a new route for the spacecraft, based on gravity coming from a flight near Earth on October 9, 2013 to Jupiter on April 4. 7/2016.

The flight near the globe will accelerate Juno's speed to 26,280km / hour and put the spacecraft in the right direction to Jupiter.

The adjustment of the direction for the last mission began to take place at the end of August, according to Space.com.

'The almost perfect representation of the system pushes in both direction adjustments' , according to project leader Juno Rick Nybakken.

'These successes have helped us get closer to the preparations for today's most important mission, starting the main engine in July 2016 , ' according to Nybakken.

Upon reaching Jupiter, Juno will turn around it 33 times, from one extreme to the other, with the goal of studying through the strange cloud covering the planet to collect data to discover the origin and structure, its atmosphere and magnetosphere, as well as understanding whether the planet has a solid core.
