NASA's Juno spacecraft has only within this week started orbiting the great gas planet with the Big Red Eye: after a journey of almost 5 years, the unmanned, solar-powered Juno spacecraft should be going into orbit around Jupiter at around 11:15pm ET on Monday, July 4th, carrying an array of instruments that will do everything from analyzing fluctuations in Jupiter’s gravity to visualizing its magnetic field... It’ll snap some pretty pictures too, of course...
I was looking at the Pluto pictures by New Horizons. Remember that blurred black and white telescope picture of Pluto from high school? Thanks to nasa all this is now changed...
