The Juno mission is a mission to explore Jupiter launched by NASA in 2011. It was the first spacecraft designed to study the internal structure and atmosphere of the gas giant.

Juno was launched on an Atlas V rocket and began its long journey to Jupiter, which lasted over 5 years. Then, on July 4, 2016, Juno successfully entered into orbit around Jupiter.

Since entering orbit, Juno has been performing a series of complex maneuvers to reach the optimal point for studying Jupiter’s atmosphere and magnetosphere. Additionally, the spacecraft is conducting a complete rotational scan of Jupiter, including its orbiting bodies and its magnetosphere.

The key scientific objectives of the mission are to study Jupiter’s magnetosphere, understand the structure of its atmosphere, and investigate the interior of the gas giant. Thanks to the Juno mission, scientists have obtained a significant amount of data that has helped uncover some of Jupiter’s mysteries and gain a better understanding of the internal composition of this planetary body.

Juno continues to conduct research on Jupiter, and researchers hope that this data will provide even more insight into this fascinating and enigmatic planetary object.
