JunoCam at PJ45: Jupiter
Here’s a report on the PJ45 Jupiter images, in our usual style. Highlights include:
–A 6-hour sequence of inbound images, which mapped much of the northern hemisphere;
–A methane-band map of the North Polar Hood, confirming large undulations recently mapped in ground-based images, and giving a rotation rate for them;
–A view of the only still-dark ‘barge’ in the NEB, and subtle cloud textures nearby;
–White ovals with ‘anticyclonic’ appearance in the cyclonic SEB.
