Jupiter as seen by NASA's Juno spacecraft
This animation shows how Jupiter appeared to NASA's Juno spacecraft when its JunoCam camera was imaging Jupiter at approximately 13:13:40 on February 2, 2017. The animation is based on the images obtained by JunoCam at this time. Due to the spacecraft's spin the camera sweeps across Jupiter's disc and is able to image a large area over a period of several seconds. For clarity this animation is slowed down by a factor of 1.8.
