JunoCam aboard NASA’s Juno spacecraft captured an image of Jupiter’s northern high latitudes during the spacecraft’s 69th flyby on Jan. 28, 2025.
The enhanced color rendition shows Jupiter’s belts and zones, highlighting the turbulence along their edges caused by winds going in different directions.
The original JunoCam data used for the image was taken from an altitude of about 36,000 miles above Jupiter’s cloud tops.
Juno, since its arrival in 2016, has been exploring beneath the dense clouds of Jupiter to uncover insights about the planet’s origin, the solar system, and giant planets in space.
